Austin Campbell York was an 18-year-old junior at McKinney North High School when he was killed on March 12, 2004. He played football and ran track for the Bulldogs, belonged to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, served as Junior Class Secretary, worked at Market Street Grocery, and was a Junior Deacon at First Christian Church in McKinney.

On March 12 Austin was at a house on Truett Street with friends Mark Barbosa and Matthew Self when three armed men — Eddie Williams, Javier Cortez, and Raul Cortez — broke in. The intruders were attempting to rob a check-cashing business they believed had been shortchanged by Rosa Barbosa. After killing Rosa, the men forced the three youths into a bedroom and shot them execution-style. Matthew Self survived initial arrival of police but died the next day.

The killings left a deep mark on the McKinney community. Does anyone who knew Austin or was in the area that night have information that could shed more light on what happened?
