Brandy Michelle Padilla was 38 and from Amarillo, Texas. She died of a gunshot wound to her upper body after being found in the 2100 block of Dallas Street on January 28, 2022; she was taken to a local hospital and later succumbed to her injuries.

Padilla was born August 8, 1983, in Lubbock, Texas, to Rubert Bryan McWilliams and Esther Rodriguez McWilliams. She was a mother to three sons — Augustine Angel McWilliams, Anthony Bryan McWilliams, and Adrian Leo Thomas McWilliams — and was described as caring, often helping others and sharing food. She liked fishing, hunting, camping, drawing, and writing poetry.

A 36-year-old man was also shot in the upper body and taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries; that shooting was linked to the same events. The Amarillo Police Department identified 48-year-old Douglas Leonard Voigt as the suspect; he was arrested and booked into the Potter County Detention Center on murder charges and the Homicide Unit is investigating.

Did anyone in Amarillo know Brandy or have information about the confrontation that night?
