Air Force Major charged in connection with wife’s disappearance is being released from the Bexar County Jail

SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) – A man charged with tampering with evidence in his wife’s disappearance last month is expected to be released from the Bexar County Jail today.

The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office confirms that Andre McDonald has posted the required portion of his $300,000 bond.

The Air Force Major’s wife, Andreen McDonald, was reported missing March 1 when she failed to report for work and to the gym. Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar believes she is dead. That’s based on evidence found in the couple’s residence, including blood and hair. McDonald is accused of trying to destroy receipts for a shovel, heavy duty trash bags, an ax and gasoline containers.

Volunteers have searched areas near the couple’s home and Joint Base San Antonio-Camp Bullis where McDonald was seen shortly after his wife disappeared, but they found no sign of Andreen McDonald.

Deputy Johnny Garcia in the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office says when Andre McDonald is released from the jail, he’ll be turned over to military authorities.

Crime Stoppers of San Antonio is offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the person or persons responsible for Andreen McDonald’s disappearance.
