Donna Renee Roberson Jordan was 31 when she was killed at her workplace in Jackson, Tennessee, on January 11, 2005. She worked for the Tennessee Department of Transportation and was a mother. Her estranged husband, David Lynn Jordan, arrived at the TDOT facility armed and opened fire, killing Donna and a visiting forestry employee, 61-year-old Jerry Hopper. A motorist, David Gordon, who had followed the shooter from the scene, was also shot and killed after leaving the building. Two other TDOT employees were wounded but survived.

David Lynn Jordan was arrested and charged with three counts of first-degree murder and with attempted first-degree murder for the two employees who were wounded. Testimony at trial referenced domestic issues and his belief that his wife was having an affair as part of the motive. A Madison County jury found him guilty on all counts in September 2006 and sentenced him to death; the Tennessee Supreme Court later upheld that sentence.

Does anyone have information about Donna’s life in Jackson, her work at TDOT, or memories that could help preserve her story?
