BEAUTIFUL teacher was shot to death in her own house before her 5-year-old daughter discovered her lifeless body.
Her ex-boyfriend Erik Mitchell Rivas, 32, was detained as a suspect in the shooting death of Shereena Ann Webster, 36.
When Rivas reportedly shot his former partner and fled the scene in Amarillo, Texas, on August 18, Webster’s five-year-old daughter was in another room, according to authorities.
According to authorities, when the young girl woke up at 5 am, she found her mother’s lifeless body with many bullet wounds.
She made a call to Patricia Byington, her grandma, who then dialled 911.
Before she ended their relationship so that she could see other people, Webster and Rivas apparently dated for several years.
Detectives were informed by the young girl’s grandmother that Webster intended to depart town the day following her tragic passing in order to meet a potential love interest in Colorado.
She was both my granddaughter and my best friend, Webster’s grandfather Charles Curfman told CBS.
One of Shereena’s three sisters, Christina Holman, told the publication:
She wasn’t deserving of this because she was a nice, caring person.
“Her students were always her number one priority,” Holman said.
“You knew if she could take them all home and love them as her own, she would.”
