Rosa Linda Ybarra & Felix Antonio Jimenez Macz — A Tragedy That Shook Houston.
The lives of Rosa Linda Ybarra, 67, and Felix Antonio Jimenez Macz, 47, were tragically cut short on September 3, in west Houston, in an incident that led to the arrest and capital murder charge of 48-year-old Derrick Duane Jackson, according to court records. Their deaths have left behind a painful reminder of how suddenly life can change and how deeply a community can be affected by tragedy.
Police responded to an apartment complex in the 9500 block of Ella Lee Lane after a maintenance worker and a resident discovered the two victims inside the management office. Investigators determined that this was not believed to be a murder-suicide and began working to piece together what happened.
According to the criminal complaint, Jackson is accused of shooting Ybarra and shooting and stabbing Jimenez Macz during the same incident. Authorities have not publicly identified a possible motive, leaving many questions surrounding the heartbreaking events of that evening.
Behind every headline are lives that once held meaning, memories that cannot be replaced, and people whose presence mattered. Rosa Linda and Felix deserve to be remembered for more than the circumstances surrounding their deaths. Their names should remain connected to the lives they lived and the memories they left behind.
May their memories never fade beneath the weight of a tragic headline. May their names continue to be spoken with dignity and compassion.
Rosa Linda Ybarra and Felix Antonio Jimenez Macz — may you rest peacefully. 🕊️🕯️
