Jamie Denise Howard was a 40-year-old retired Sergeant First Class in the U.S. Army and a mother who was killed at her home in Huntsville, Alabama on February 6, 2021. Police say a domestic dispute escalated into a shooting; officers found Howard with fatal gunshot wounds and a male suspect was taken into custody at the scene.

That suspect was identified as her husband, Russell Howard Jr., who was arrested and booked into the Madison County Jail and charged with murder. The charge alleges investigators believed there was evidence he intentionally caused her death; the case thereafter proceeded into the judicial system.

Jamie Howard’s death is described as a case of domestic violence that ended a life of military service and left a family and community bereaved. If anyone knew Jamie, her household, or observed events around February 6, 2021 in Huntsville, please share what might help the ongoing record.
