Timothy Bradburn, 68, was shot to death at his Spokane home on North Cochran Street shortly before 1 a.m. on June 25, 2024. Police say his daughter, 31-year-old Alyssa M. Bradburn, called 911 and told dispatchers she had just shot her father; officers found her on the front porch and discovered Timothy deceased inside. The Spokane County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide, listing multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and head. Investigators reported Timothy had just returned home in an Uber from a trip to Hawaii when the shooting occurred.

Court documents and statements to police describe a troubled family history. Alyssa told investigators she had planned the killing for weeks, kept a journal she said contained a confession, and alleged long-term abuse by her father, including rape in childhood and physical violence toward her and her dogs. She said she practiced at a gun range and took steps to shield the dogs from the gunfire before the shooting. Alyssa was taken into custody at the scene, charged with first-degree murder, and held on $1 million bond; she initially pleaded guilty in an early court appearance before her attorney changed the plea.

Does anyone have information about Timothy’s movements the night he returned from Hawaii or about the family’s history that could help clarify what happened?
