Jennifer Herren was 37 when she died on February 9, 2015, at her home on Happy Hollow Road in Yorkville, Tennessee. Neighbors and relatives remembered her as a routine-oriented mother who worked at Foodrite in nearby Newbern and relied on family nearby to care for her four children if needed. Late that Monday night deputies responded to a domestic-related disturbance about 10:30 p.m.; Jennifer was found dead of what authorities described as an apparent gunshot wound. Bryan Shawver was also at the scene with a gunshot wound described by investigators as appearing self-inflicted and was airlifted to a Memphis hospital. The family’s oldest child, a teenager, made the 911 call, and neighbors reported children fleeing the house to escape the danger. Investigators told the public that only Jennifer and Shawver were involved; by April 6, 2015, a grand jury in Trenton returned an indictment charging Bryan Shawver with First Degree Murder, and he was booked April 10, 2015.

What details about the evening’s sequence remain unclear to readers interested in the case? If anyone knew Jennifer or has information about that night, please share what you can with the investigators.
