Philip Louis Cloud, 62, was shot and killed on September 23, 2019, on a 20-acre farm property in the Bethany area of unincorporated Washington County, Oregon. Deputies arriving at the Northwest Germantown Road property found him unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The initial 911 call came from Tracy L. Cloud, who said she had just shot her husband.

Philip had filed for divorce about three months earlier; most of his belongings remained at the farm while he was living in a Hillsboro apartment and Tracy was residing at the property. Tracy told investigators the shooting was self-defense, claiming an argument ended with Philip pulling a handgun on her and her firing twice into his torso. Detectives later reviewed surveillance footage, financial records and cell phone records, and used forensic findings from the autopsy and scene to evaluate that account.

Investigators arrested Tracy Cloud in January 2020 and charged her with second-degree murder and unlawful use of a weapon. If anyone knew Philip or has information about the farm, the events that day, or relevant evidence, please share what is known.
