MIDLOTHIAN, Texas - Saturday marks a somber decade since the unsolved murder of Terri "Missy" Bevers, a case that remains one of North Texas’ most enduring mysteries.
Missy Bevers' murder
The backstory:
Bevers, 45, was killed in the early morning hours of April 18, 2016, inside the Creekside Church of Christ. The fitness instructor had arrived at the church around 4 a.m. to prepare for an indoor "Camp Gladiator" workout class because of rain.
The case gained international attention largely due to chilling surveillance footage released by investigators. The video showed a suspect dressed in full tactical "SWAT" gear—including a helmet, heavy vest, and gloves—wandering the church hallways and breaking into rooms with a pry bar shortly before Bevers arrived.
