On November 15, 2023, 42-year-old Janice Catia Langdon James was found dead of gunshot wounds in northwest Harris County, Houston. Authorities say she was killed in a separate incident the same day that left her 66-year-old mother, Mary Jane Langdon, also dead from gunshot wounds. Court filings identify 25-year-old Tyler Langdon, described as Janice’s nephew, as the suspect; he was arrested and charged with capital murder. Those filings allege he mutilated his grandmother’s body before fatally shooting both women.

Janice James was born February 2, 1981, in The Woodlands, Texas, to Thomas and Mary Jane Langdon. She graduated from Macon High School, earned an associate degree in psychology, and worked at Walmart for about twenty years, where she participated in fundraising for groups such as The Children’s Miracle Network and The Boys and Girls Club. She is survived by her daughter Madelyn, her sister Heleen Abele, and other family members.

Does anyone have information about Janice’s last known activities or the area in northwest Harris County where these shootings occurred?
