Anna Wessel, 37, was found dead in her Oregon City home on November 13, 2023. The community remembered her as a vibrant, musically talented woman who managed the local Geeks & Games store and was a devoted mother of four.

Police say Anna’s husband of 18 years, 41-year-old Anthony Wessel, walked into the Oregon City Police station shortly before 1 p.m. on the day of the killing and confessed to shooting her inside their family home on Squire Drive. Officers located Anna inside; an autopsy confirmed she died of two gunshot wounds to the head. Investigators reported finding a note from Anthony addressed to police indicating an initial plan to kill Anna and then himself, with a margin note saying he changed his mind about suicide and would surrender. Additional writings recovered at the house reportedly showed planning for the crime.

If anyone knew Anna, the family’s routines, or saw anything in that neighborhood around November 13, 2023, please share what might help the investigation.
