Christina Chris Jackson, 43, was found shot inside her Wasilla, Alaska home in the pre-dawn hours of Monday, August 8, 2022. Troopers and Wasilla police responded around 4 a.m.; they attempted lifesaving measures but Christina was pronounced dead at the scene. Tributes from colleagues in the joint University of Alaska Anchorage–Idaho State University Doctor of Pharmacy program and local obituaries remembered her as Chris and described a life that began in 1979, moved from New Orleans to Anchorage in the early 2000s, and centered on health care and family until the violence that ended it.

Investigators with the Alaska Bureau of Investigation’s Mat-Su Major Crimes Unit arrested Christina’s husband, 49-year-old Michael Jackson, on Thursday, August 11, 2022; prosecutors charged him with first- and second-degree murder and the state described the killing as a domestic-violence homicide. He was ordered held at the Mat-Su Pretrial Facility on a substantial cash bond.

If anyone knew Christina, her routines, or has information about what happened that morning, please come forward to help the case.
