Rebecca L. Haynes, 21, was found dead at her Jefferson Street residence in Bradford, Pennsylvania, on June 7, 2025. Police say the death was a fatal shooting; Haynes was pregnant at the time. Her one-year-old child was in another room during the incident.

Thomas James McElhattan, 42, of Bradford Township, has been charged in connection with the killing. Authorities report McElhattan called 911 after an argument and admitted to shooting Haynes multiple times. He was arrested and booked into the McKean County Jail without bail on charges that include criminal homicide and aggravated assault, both first-degree felonies, plus two counts of recklessly endangering another person. Prosecutors have sought to move the case’s schedule and a murder trial has been set for May.

Was anyone in Bradford aware of tensions in this relationship or saw something the night of June 7 that could help investigators?
