Lori Roberts, 49, was found dead in her Doran, Minnesota, home on October 2, 2009. An autopsy determined she had been shot twice, wounds to the neck and chest causing her death. A mother of three daughters, she worked as a senior machine operator at Primewood in Wahpeton, North Dakota, and enjoyed the outdoors, motorcycle riding, and hosting holiday gatherings.

Investigators focused on her former boyfriend, Jeffrey Allen Silvernail, 44, who was reportedly moving out after a recent breakup and who placed the 911 call after discovering Roberts’ body. A small spot of blood on the pants Silvernail wore that day was later confirmed to be Roberts’ blood. He was arrested May 24, 2010, and charged with second-degree intentional murder. At trial, a jailhouse inmate testified that Silvernail confessed, saying the killing followed an argument and that the scene was staged to look like a burglary. On October 6, 2011, a jury found Jeffrey Silvernail guilty of first-degree murder and he was sentenced to life without parole.

Are there anyone who knew Lori or her routines who can share details that might shed more light on the days leading up to October 2, 2009?
