In the pre-dawn hours of February 22, 2022, 32-year-old attorney Jordan Wesley Morgan was shot to death in her family’s Richmond, Kentucky home. The intruder, later identified as 23-year-old Shannon Gilday, forced his way into the residence owned by Jordan’s father, former state representative C. Wesley Morgan, then went upstairs and shot Jordan multiple times while she lay in bed. Jordan’s father exchanged gunfire with the intruder and was wounded but survived.

Investigators say Gilday had no prior connection to the family and had targeted the property to gain access to a large underground bunker there, motivated by an obsessive fear of nuclear war. Evidence described extensive research into the home and the family’s routines. Gilday was arrested on February 28, 2022, after a public plea from his mother; he confessed and was charged with murder, three counts of attempted murder, assault, burglary, and criminal mischief. Defense filings have raised his mental state, with psychological evaluations suggesting schizoaffective disorder. The case is moving toward trial.

Did anyone in the Richmond area have contact with Jordan or know of anything suspicious around the Morgan property in February 2022?
