Overview
- Catalina Mancera wrote on Instagram on November 24 that she is struggling with grief and promised to carry Marshawn Kneeland’s legacy.
- The Dallas Morning News reporting, cited by Us Weekly, says Mancera was briefly handcuffed, placed in a squad car, released after a vehicle search, and later questioned again.
- Footage and reports indicate she told officers that Kneeland was armed and had a history of mental illness after she drove to the area when he said he intended to “end it all.”
- Police say Kneeland refused a traffic stop, crashed, fled on foot, and was found dead early the next morning of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot after an hours-long search using dogs and drones.
- The Cowboys have honored Kneeland with helmet decals and pregame shirts, launched a memorial fund for Mancera and the baby, and noted Mancera’s attendance at the November 23 home game.
