Murder trial testimony: Andreen McDonald died of ‘blunt-force trauma,’ likely from a hammer

Andre McDonald during a break in his murder trial Friday in 399th District Court. McDonald is accused of killing his wife, Andreen McDonald.San Antonio businesswoman Andreen McDonald suffered “homicidal violence, including blunt-force trauma,” likely from a hammer rather than by stomping, a Bexar County medical examiner testified Friday in the murder trial of her husband, Maj. Andre McDonald.

Andreen McDonald’s burned remains were found on a ranch near Camp Bullis on July 11, 2019, and her husband, then 40, was charged with murder two days later. He already had been charged with tampering with evidence shortly after she was reported missing March 1. Before Feig testified, Chief Medical Examiner Kimberley Molina spent the morning telling the jury about the process she undertook to separate human remains from those of two dead cows, as the bones were found intermixed and scattered, and some were burned.
