Texas district attorney and his wife whose Saturday shooting deaths have sparked a multi-agency investigation were remembered by a friend as “witty” people who were “deeply in love,”NBCDFW.com reported.
Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, Cynthia, were slain at their home just two months after another prosecutor in the county was shot to death.
A connection has not yet been made between the killings, but a white supremacist group was reportedly thought to be planning to retaliate over indictments in a racketeering case and the state recently warned of the danger posed by Mexican drug cartels, who have slain many law enforcement officials in Mexico.
Friends and former colleagues in Kaufman County tried to accept the sudden loss of a couple who left behind five children.
