Joshua Alexander, 34, was found dead on June 25, 2023, near the Interstate 5 milepost 101 interchange close to Canyonville in Douglas County, Oregon. The Oregon State Police reported he died of a gunshot wound, and the Douglas County Major Crimes Team was activated because the scene lay within an Oregon Department of Transportation right-of-way.

Investigators identified two suspects and made arrests in July 2023. Allen Lloyd Swindler, 36, of Sutherlin, was arrested July 20 while already in custody on unrelated charges; he has prior convictions including unlawful possession of a firearm, robbery, and conspiracy to commit a felony, and had posted threatening videos about Alexander on his TikTok account. Sierra Sioux Jennings, 34, of Sutherlin, was arrested July 26 and is believed to be Swindler’s girlfriend. Both were charged with second-degree murder and were being held at the Douglas County Jail.

Reports say the motive appears tied to a long-standing feud between Swindler and Alexander, partly over a woman Swindler was obsessed with. The investigation remains active. If anyone has information about Joshua Alexander, the suspects, or the events near milepost 101 on June 25, please come forward.
