Terri Leann Strickland Bevers, known as Missy, was a Midlothian, Texas fitness instructor and former special education teacher who was murdered on April 18, 2016. She left home before dawn to lead a 5:00am Camp Gladiator class at Creekside Church of Christ. Surveillance footage shows an unknown person in unofficial tactical gear inside the building at about 3:50am, breaking windows and moving through dark hallways before Missy arrived.

A student who arrived after 5:00am found Missy unresponsive; police and EMS pronounced her dead at the scene. Investigators reported she died of multiple puncture wounds to the chest and head, injuries consistent with a hammer or mallet-like object seen in the footage. The intruder’s gender is indeterminate on video, estimated height 5 feet 2 inches to 5 feet 8 inches, noted to walk with a limp and outward-pointing feet.

A blood-soaked shirt later brought to a Midlothian dry cleaner by Missy’s father-in-law was tested and found to contain non-human blood; family members have been publicly described as having alibis and being ruled out by investigators. A $50,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest and grand jury indictment.

If anyone attended Missy’s classes, worked at Creekside Church of Christ, or has information about who was in the building before dawn on April 18, please come forward.
