A Minnesota woman has been charged with the murder of her husband while the couple and their five children were missionaries in the southern African nation of Angola last year. Beau Shroyer, 44, from Detroit Lakes, was found dead in a vehicle in Thienjo, a town in southern Angola, in October 2024. His wife, Jackie Shroyer, was arrested in connection with the death in November and is accused of forming a murder-for-hire plot after allegedly cheating on him.
The lead pastor for the Detroit Lakes church expressed deep sadness over the situation and urged the community to continue praying for truth and justice. The family of seven was deployed by SIM USA, an evangelical Christian organization, to Angola in 2021. SIM USA expressed shock and devastation over the arrest of Jackie Shroyer and emphasized their commitment to supporting the pursuit of justice for Beau.
