Terry McCauley, 34, of North Highlands, California, was shot in the head and killed on the night of August 22, 2017. He was at home with his five-year-old daughter when he heard a noise outside, stepped out to investigate, and was found dead on the front porch by deputies shortly after midnight.

Family members describe McCauley as a loving and protective father, a cherished brother, and a loyal friend. They believe the killing was targeted rather than random and have held events such as a 5K Walk for Justice to keep the case visible while urging the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office to pursue leads. The investigation is active but there have been no arrests and no suspects publicly identified.

Anyone who knew Terry or has information about what happened that night is asked to contact the authorities.
