Jeffrey Michael McBride, 31, of Denton, Texas, was shot and killed on April 25, 2022. Born June 4, 1990, he was remembered by family as bright, caring and faith-driven, a seventh generation Texan who loved his hometown and enjoyed the Dallas Mavericks, Cowboys and Texas Rangers. He was particularly close to his niece Kelsie.

Police ruled the death a homicide. According to reports, Jeffrey was shot by his wife, Amber Rosales, four days after their wedding. Rosales initially told officers that an unknown man shot Jeffrey and fled, but investigators say her statements contained inconsistencies and that evidence placed her as the only person present. She was arrested May 25, 2022, and charged with murder; she was held on $500,000 bond.

Search warrants were executed, family and witnesses were interviewed, and surveillance footage was reviewed during the investigation. Jeffrey’s family continues to mourn and seek closure through the legal process. If anyone knew Jeffrey, his routines, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
