Patricia Ann Marshall Spivey, a 52-year-old African American woman from Houston, Texas, was found shot in her home on July 28, 2019. She had been shot twice, once in the arm and once in the chest, and was pronounced dead at the scene. Her husband, Renard Spivey, a sheriff’s deputy who later worked as an actor, was arrested and charged with her murder. He told investigators the shooting was accidental during a struggle over a gun, but detectives reported inconsistencies in his account and evidence indicated Patricia’s death resulted from a domestic dispute.

The couple had been arguing about a lack of intimacy and Patricia’s suspicions that Renard might be having an affair. Renard was taken to hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg. Reports also note Renard had a history of domestic issues, including a previous lawsuit from an ex-wife alleging neglect of their daughter. Patricia was active in her community, focused on health and wellness and philanthropy, and is survived by her daughter Patrina Marshall, who described her as her best friend and support system.
