On the afternoon of October 27, 2018, 35-year-old Brandy Renee Johnson was on her lunch break from work as a waitress at Coe’s Steakhouse in Russell Springs, Kentucky, when she went out to her vehicle in the restaurant parking lot. A man approached and fired multiple shots at point-blank range. Johnson was taken to Russell County Hospital, where she died of her injuries.

Police identified 42-year-old Jason Clark of Jamestown as the shooter; he fled the scene but was located about an hour later in his car several miles south of Jamestown on Highway 127. Kentucky State Police arrested Clark. Investigators say he purchased the gun that same day with the intention of killing Johnson and the weapon was recovered at another location. Clark was charged with murder.

Johnson was a mother of four and remembered by her employer and community as kind, sweet, and loyal. Does anyone have information about Brandy’s life, her family, or the events that day that could help add context to this case?
