McDonald is accused of murdering his wife, Andreen McDonald, in 2019, and burning her remains.
It took 4 months after the murder to locate Andreen’s remains which were found on a private property in north Bexar County. The trial, originally scheduled for 2021, was reset in October 2021 as prosecutors were still investigating and also had witnesses to arrange to be here from out of state that are in the FBI and the military. The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office was still giving prosecutors evidence which needed to be thoroughly looked through. This evidence came just a few weeks before the 2021 trial date causing the reset and also giving Andre McDonald a lower bond which he was able to meet and has been out of jail since October 2021.
Andreen was last seen alive on February 28, 2019. Family and friends reported her missing several days later when her husband Andre became the prime suspect.
