Cassie Brooke Wright, an 18-year-old from Athens, Tennessee, was found dead on September 20, 2019. Described as vibrant and caring, she was remembered as a beloved daughter, sister, and friend. Local law enforcement treated the death as suspicious and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation became involved. A gunshot wound was determined to be the cause of death, and the case was classified as a homicide.

Within days of the discovery, investigators developed a suspect. Anthony Lee Hardy Jr. was taken into custody and charged in connection with Cassie’s death. He was later indicted, tried, and a jury found him responsible; he was convicted and sentenced for his role in the killing.
