TX - Terri 'Missy' Bevers,45, murdered in church/person in SWAT gear,18 Apr 2016 #15

Wow!!!!! I know that Tricia cautions us at the beginning of the interview that we can choose to believe her guest or not to believe her guest.

But if Tamara's info is correct, then yowza, lots of details in this interview!!!

ETA: And we have to wonder why Tamara revealed what she did tonight? Rhetorical question because I think LE is once more putting on the pressure but in a very overt way this time.

Thanks Amanda. I remain open, now. If it is CT as much speculated, then the crime was a kinda "join the dots" scenario. From alleged affair to hubby's "swat" gear & helmet. Hello, catch-me-if-u-can? Makes me wonder the comments about: a) her intelligence b) her love for children. Oh my.

I've seen this same comment twice today, but I have no clue what "Marking my spot" means.
Would you be so kind to enlighten me about what exactly this achieves -- i.e., how is it being used as a placemark?

If you go to your profile and look at your own posts, you can easily go to your last post. So, some use "Marking my spot" to keep track of where they are on the thread.

Oh no, I wasn't saying that the source is not okay. I'm just surprised that an arrest will be made on a certain date range. Why would LE tell a civilian something like that ? It's puzzling, but I hope she's right. It seems like a totally crazy response to an affair,or an imagined affair. And I wonder why she wouldn't also go after her husband ?

I would think if a person is so out to lunch as to commit this type of murder, there might be some kind of fantasy going on in their head - they might be thinking 'if only this person is out of the picture, then we can get back to living our perfect life'. Plus the husband is the breadwinner - everything the perp might be doing is preserving that family unit. She could see him as a victim of sorts. JMO of course.

I think the part of the interview that gutted me the most was when Tamara said something like (and I'm paraphrasing) "the suspect could've been sitting on Missy as she (the suspect)" stabbed at her with whatever tool (screwdriver/hammer).

So much rage from one person.

And oh, so much fear from another. It makes me sick.

I see it regularly on each new thread. Think it is literally a friendly race to "stake my flag" as being among first 2 or 3 posters be at the summit of a 70-foot mountain of posts and ski down. A forum characteristic Does it bother me? Nope. Humans are here too. :loveyou:

When I watch the video I get the impression this is a long-legged person. Quite tall. Looking at the length from knee to ankle and again from knee to hip, and his walk, he seems quite lanky. When he is breaking the glass, from the side, his hip area is narrow. I think this person is taller than the previously mentioned 5' 8". Cameras that are overhead make a person look shorter than they really are. Give it a try and look up when you're walking into a store with a camera monitor screen. JMO

These are my feelings exactly. Too many people are not taking into consideration the extreme distortion of wide angle lenses.

 

[Waxmom]

I just wish it would all come out-all these ideas/speculations around the area, everyone has friends/family in the pd, we have all heard (so far incredibly accurate once released) info, and it's like we can't do/say anything out loud. Small town crimes like this are INSANE-very personalized-makes me long for my big city days where if it happened, it was just a bad luck deal that cops figured out. It didn't feel so PERSONAL, or make you feel vulnerable. And to throw in the wackiness of videoed perp movements beforehand-I hope it all comes out very soon!!!

Oh yes. Awful. Brutally personal. A psychopath filled with rage and hate. (Hmmm: I still have a few doubts, though. Cer-razy as that sounds)

Wow...that was an enlightening show. Amazing to get a firsthand listen in on what locals are thinking and saying. It really makes a difference.

What I am wondering is how things are going at home right now between AT and CT. It must be rough. And you KNOW someone has to be awfully nervous right about now.

I gathered from Tamera that an arrest is imminent.

rbbm

My thoughts exactly. In listening to the broadcast with Tamara, she was getting her information from the rumor mill and not LE. IMO

 

[SandyQLS]

I have tried to obtain the original single frame from which the "face" image was made, to no avail. A few of us have tried to get step by step details on the enhancement process, without success.

The original photo is hosted at MPD and at WFAA and everywhere. It is the third photo in these four. All Sparky did was use Photofly to invert the colors/or black & white - I don't have Photofly, so I don't know what buttons she used - it was just one process though.

Re: the camera not being activated...LEO stated the camera's outside were not functioning... and there was a camera on the side where MB went thru... or at least where her vehicle was parked. 9:00 mark... Reporter says 1 thought is "someone so savvy how to get in without activating the camera" Tricia asked about one in the parking lot... What about the one where MB went in. She would not have been trying to be savvy on that.

 

[midlo33]

:tantrum: I thought I had myself convinced it was not her, until I heard this interview, when Tamara says CT had posted that her kids were going to be with her mom.
And now looking at AT's fb, he hasn't posted in two days when he normally post several times a day every day. I am still hoping the LE finds out she is being framed,
for her families sake, especially those babies. :tears:

The people that were pointing to her since day three had to have some reason. Seems they had to know she was upset about something to do with MB.
Look at AT's photos....lots and lots of women in them...so why her? Oh, please don't let it be her!

One more thought, about the maybe being a teenager/gamer/random person. Would be one heck of coincidence that BB was out of town.

sn: dizzychick, I remember that David's, and the little post office across the street! And MOO

The forensic video specialists probably requested access to scan and measure with their own instruments. The problem with most video surveillance, is that the images are captured through wide angle lenses, which markedly distort shapes and sizes. With better optics or laser scanning equipment, specialists are able to capture the crime scene and digitally recreate it. Then they're able to interpret and scrutinize evidence with much greater accuracy.

Thank you for that, their involvement makes more sense to me now.

Maybe, maybe not. She's a Midlothian who has years of experience in the media. There is no reason why she wouldn't have sources inside LE, she just can't say so at this point in time.
Or, it could be local gossip.
The only way we'll know for sure is from the results.

Does "CT" look anything like the face on the video ?

I think it makes sense that you have doubts. You know why? Because you are likely a compassionate person who can't envision the rage it took to commit this murder. Who wants to really believe that a mother of young kids would so savagely take the life of another mother? And for an affair that may not have even happened.

 

[WannaBDetective]

Just listened and I fell.flat.on.my.back. Off to buy pastry to make humble pie because if all is true, I'll be eating it all up. The person that did this to Missy is a cold, cruel, psychopath. Whatever his/her credentials were up to that Monday night are now meaningless. HOW many kids are now drawn into another person's hate? Those believing (not simply saying) how 'intelligent" PsychoPerpSwat is, may need some of my pie. Multiple lives destroyed. Forever. All through one brutally disturbing act.

The irrationality aspect of this was one of the few that kept me from being more convinced. Introduce paranoia and potentially postpartum, two irrational cousins. I grew up on a dairy farm and know that cows are generally passive and timid EXCEPT when it comes to protecting their little ones. They will (and have) killed the perceived threat. This person's background and experience indicates the necessity to have some boldness. Even even-keeled people can react explosively (sometimes because they are even-keeled and hold things inside). And a fourth young one was recently born. If she perceived a threat to breaking up the family....Now it's a matter of figuring out her digital footprint.

ps. To the question of how could she not have her husband know. That's maybe where the story is frayed.

Exact proof of Ms. Jolie's (Jolene?) comment "This has affected everyone here; everybody is talking about it...etc..."

I agree with your post. I cannot listen to the show, but it sounds like a rehash of gossip - we have threads full of it - and nothing actually concrete. JMO I am NOT at all on the CT bandwagon - I do NOT think CT has anything to do with this murder. If she does, then I want LE to get her, but she seems like a red herring, a bone thrown to the dogs.

What we have here is a killer with knock knees. It's what we called it in my youth as having knock knees when the knees touch but the feet cannot. It is the opposite of being bow legged. It is correctable; however, it seems the killer did not commit to exercise, thus, has low muscle tone. Another reason to hold onto the wall would be for stability.

"In orthopedics, a valgus deformity is a condition in which a bone or joint is twisted outward from the center of the body.[1] snip Common causes of valgus knee in adults include arthritis of the knee and trauma."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valgus_deformity


"Lower-limb valgus deformity associated with developmental hip dysplasia."
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23158124

The elbows of the killer may be affected by this condition, too, as noticed in the video of the killer's arms, that are out from the side, away from the body.

I love your post. Thanks for the contribution.

Here's my first post on a similar vein.
