Cassandra Kae Wagner, 50, was found shot to death inside a home on the 200 block of Olson Road in Silverton, Oregon, on August 30, 2014. A licensed practical nurse at Providence Benedictine Nursing Home in Mt. Angel, she had worked in nursing for 25 years and was active in Silver Creek Fellowship. Neighbors described her as generous and kind.

Investigators identified 43-year-old Jason Clifford Down as the immediate suspect. Wagner and Down had lived together and the relationship had included physical abuse; Wagner obtained a restraining order and her name appeared in court records as the victim in a probation violation case against Down. The day before the shooting, Down reportedly told an acquaintance he would sell his belongings, shoot Wagner, and then kill himself.

The homicide happened on a rural street of six houses that had seen another murder nine months earlier. What details about the incident or the two households on Olson Road have not been made public?
