A Florida man killed a woman and sent her a Facebook message weeks later wishing her a Happy Thanksgiving because he said it would help his mental health, a probable cause arrest affidavit reviewed by Law&Crime says.

The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office received a tip on Friday from an informant who said his friend Christina Uribe had been missing for three months and he heard 53-year-old Jeff Bostwick killed her. Another informant said Bostwick told her that he killed Uribe with a shotgun and that he put her body in a trailer on his lawn mower and buried her behind his shed on his 5 acres of property in Jay, located in Florida’s Panhandle near Pensacola, according to the affidavit.

One of the informants also alleged Bostwick previously hit Uribe and fired a shotgun in the air in September or October of 2023. Uribe went back to Bostwick’s home a few weeks later and no one has heard from her since.

Uribe’s ex-boyfriend said he dropped her off at Bostwick’s home on Nov. 3. The ex had taken photos of him and Uribe, who was wearing a black tank top, in the car before he took her to Bostwick’s home. He told detectives that Bostwick was acting erratic and appeared to be holding a shotgun behind his back.
