Tammy Lee Hopper, a 42-year-old White woman, was found dead at her home on Shannon Place in Lebanon, Oregon. Her death occurred on February 7, 2019, and was part of a double homicide that also killed 48-year-old Erik Cody Jacobs. Their bodies were discovered after a report to authorities shortly before 11 a.m. on February 9, 2019.

Investigators identified a single suspect, 48-year-old Brenton Wade Richmond of Lebanon, a former Lebanon police officer who had been in a relationship with Hopper that ended two months before the killings. Reports say Richmond had allegedly threatened to kill Hopper and any new boyfriend. Despite those reports, Richmond had been issued a concealed weapon permit in January 2019.

Richmond was located and detained on February 10, 2019, in southern California near the U.S. border with Mexico and was charged with two counts of aggravated murder. The Linn County Major Crimes Team led the investigation. If anyone knew Tammy Hopper or has information about her relationships or movements in early 2019, please share what you know.
