Cassie Lynn Oden, 37, of Lubbock, Texas, died on June 2, 2019, after being caught in a violent shooting at a game room in East Lubbock. She was driving a Jeep Patriot when Chance Copeland opened fire on the fleeing SUV; Copeland fired six shots, killing Cassie and wounding others in the vehicle. The shooting occurred during a drug deal that Copeland had arranged to lure Preston Beadman, whom he accused of stealing money and drugs from his ex-wife Ashley Beadman.

Cassie was born July 28, 1981, to Randy Dean Oden and Velvet Kay Hughes and is survived by her children Dillon McCormick, Brendon Oden, and Kier Gallardo, her mother Kay Oden, father Randy Oden, and siblings. Court findings state Copeland intended to kill Beadman and that intent carried over to Cassie, who was an unintended victim.

Does anyone have memories of Cassie or information about the night at the game room that could help document what happened?
