On the evening of March 12, 2019, in the Salt Lake City suburb of Sandy, Utah, 36-year-old Caucasian female Maureen Fiore-Webster and her husband, Jeffrey Webster, returned to their residence. Shortly after their arrival, at approximately 10 p.m., a tranquil evening was shattered by an act of sudden and brutal violence. As her husband was engaged with the home's security system, Maureen's attention was drawn to a sliding glass door that led to their backyard.
It was in that moment that an unknown assailant fired a shotgun through the glass at close range, striking her.
The blast triggered a "glass break" burglar alarm, which prompted a police response to the couple's home. Upon their arrival, officers discovered shotgun shells in the backyard and the shattered sliding glass door. Inside, they found Maureen Fiore-Webster with a gunshot wound to the chest and her husband, Jeffrey, wounded in the thigh. Both were rushed to a nearby medical center for treatment. Tragically, Maureen succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at the hospital. Her husband survived the attack.
In the years following the tragic event, the investigation into Maureen Fiore-Webster's murder has remained active, yet no arrests have been made. Sandy Police have stated that the case has never been considered cold and that they continue to follow up on leads. Dozens of individuals have been questioned and subsequently cleared as suspects in the case. The motive behind the shooting remains elusive to investigators, as there was no sign of forced entry into the home, and nothing was reported stolen. To encourage anyone with information to come forward, a substantial reward has been offered for tips that lead to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Maureen's death. The family continues to await answers and closure in the face of their devastating loss.
