On the evening of January 20, 2021, Rachel Elizabeth Konen, 30, was found dead at a Westwood Drive residence in Clarksville, Tennessee. Her death occurred alongside that of her father, 62-year-old David Rogers. Rachel was shot; her father died of blunt-force trauma. Both were pronounced dead after efforts to save them at the scene.

The initial 911 call came from Rachel’s husband, 31-year-old Nashville Fire Department paramedic Matthew Konen, who told dispatchers that his father-in-law had shot his wife. He said he pistol-whipped Rogers and was performing CPR on Rachel while she took agonal breaths. Detectives from the Clarksville Police Department’s Special Operations Homicide Unit arrested Matthew and charged him with two counts of criminal homicide. He pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in June 2021.

The deaths of Rachel, a mother of four, and her father remain a tragic loss for their family and community.
