Mindy Tenerias, 26, of Denton, Texas, was killed on March 6, 2021. Born November 24, 1994, in San Antonio, she loved music — especially Eminem — and 90s movies. Her death was later ruled a homicide by the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office in October 2021 after investigators conducted interviews and lab testing.

The investigation identified her boyfriend, 39-year-old Zeniff Rudd, as responsible for her death. Rudd told police a gun accidentally discharged that night, but he was arrested on November 4, 2021, by the Denton Police Department with help from U.S. Marshals at a Dallas homeless shelter. He was taken into custody without incident and held on $50,000 bond facing charges in the shooting.

Family and friends are seeking justice and closure. If anyone has information about Mindy, her movements that night, or contacts connected to Zeniff Rudd, please come forward.
