On the evening of Friday, August 17, 2018, 54-year-old Julie Virginia Anderson was shot in her apartment in Waunakee, Wisconsin. The shooting occurred in the presence of her 15-year-old son and 4-year-old grandson. Anderson suffered a gunshot wound to the chest, was airlifted to UW Hospital, and was pronounced dead.

After the shooting, the suspect returned to his apartment in the same complex. A SWAT team negotiator made contact and, following a period of negotiation, the man surrendered to law enforcement. He was identified as 74-year-old neighbor Ronald Jenne and was booked into the Dane County Jail on a charge of first-degree intentional homicide. Authorities said they had not determined a motive at the time.

Anderson was born November 15, 1963, in Dodgeville, graduated from Iowa-Grant High School, and worked for the State of Wisconsin’s Department of Vocational Rehabilitation. She was a mother and a grandmother; her death affected siblings, extended family, and friends. Does anyone have information about Julie’s life in Waunakee or the days leading up to August 17, 2018?
