Jimmie Montgomery, 64, was found dead in his Phoenix home near 19th Avenue and Bethany Home Road on February 25, 2022, with obvious signs of trauma. Family members became concerned after being unable to reach him for several days and discovered his body. His niece, Aquila Dancer, said she had seen him two days earlier and remembered a young woman in the house who gave off a bad vibe.

Suspicion focused on Montgomery’s 40-year-old girlfriend, Sally Macias. Family members helped police locate her; Montgomery’s sister traced Macias to a local hotel. Phoenix Police arrested Macias on March 3, 2022. Court documents say Macias admitted shooting Montgomery in the chest after an argument during which he pulled her to the ground and back up. She also reportedly told police she did not believe Montgomery would have killed or seriously harmed her. Neighbors had previously reported domestic violence at the residence. Police found methamphetamine when Macias was arrested and she admitted to frequent use. Macias faced charges including second-degree murder and possession of a dangerous drug.

If anyone knew Jimmie or saw activity at that home in late February 2022, please share what was seen or heard.
