MIDLOTHIAN, TEXAS – As the eighth anniversary of Missy Bevers’ murder approaches, her case remains unsolved. Despite having surveillance video of the suspect, no arrests have been made in the killing of the wife and mother of three as she prepared to lead a workout class at a Midlothian church.
In a recent sit-down interview with The Waxahachie Sun President Scott Brooks, Brandon Bevers, Missy’s husband, spoke publicly about the case for the first time in years. The conversations were streamed live on YouTube and covered a range of topics, including addressing rumors and discussing the grief that the family has endured since Missy’s tragic death.
During the interviews, Bevers described the weekend leading up to Missy’s murder and the moment he received the devastating call from a Midlothian police officer while on a fishing trip. He also shared his experience of facing intense scrutiny from investigators and the public, emphasizing the need to believe in something greater to overcome the pain and grief.
When asked about his belief regarding whether Missy’s murder was targeted, Bevers expressed his opinion that it was untargeted. This perspective contrasts with some others, including Brooks, who indicated that they believe the murder was random, a belief he stated he has never held and still does not.
Since the interviews, Brooks has been inundated with questions and comments from viewers, reflecting a significant public interest in showing compassion to Brandon and his family. Bevers emphasized that his goal in addressing questions about the lack of recent updates from investigators was to draw attention to the case and encourage anyone with information to come forward.
Midlothian police confirmed that they have a full-time detective assigned to the case and that leads are actively being pursued. They urge anyone with information about the murder to contact them.
As the anniversary of Missy Bevers’ murder approaches, the family continues to seek justice and closure, holding onto hope that new information will come to light.
