Jordan Cofer, 22, was killed in the mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio, on August 4, 2019. The attack happened in the early hours at Ned Peppers bar in the Oregon District. Cofer was one of nine people killed; his brother, Connor Betts, carried out the shooting and was shot dead by police at the scene.

Friends and acquaintances said Cofer was a transgender man who used he/him pronouns, and that he was not widely out to his family, including his brother. Media and police initially misgendered and deadnamed him. Friends remembered him as kind and loving. It is unclear whether Betts specifically targeted his brother or whether Cofer was trying to intervene during the attack. No other suspects were identified.

Did anyone who knew Jordan want to share memories or details about his life or how he identified that could help preserve his story?
