On October 7, 2013, the body of 47-year-old Lisa Armstrong of Trenton was found by a surveying crew in woods off Route 206 in Tabernacle, New Jersey. The New Jersey State Police determined she had been shot multiple times in the head and concluded she was the victim of a homicide, likely killed at the location where her body was discovered and within 24 hours of the discovery.

Investigators tied the abduction and killing to two people from Trenton, Terrance J. Patterson, then 37, and Lorain Hawkins. Armstrong was taken from her home by the pair, and authorities say the motive for her abduction and murder was to conceal a robbery. Patterson was arrested on October 12, 2013, and charged with murder, felony murder, and kidnapping; Hawkins was also charged. Patterson was later convicted and sentenced to life without parole, with additional terms for kidnapping and robbery. Hawkins died of cancer after her arrest and before her case concluded.

Armstrong’s family described her as helpful and loved. Did anyone in the area see or hear anything around October 6–7, 2013, that might shed light on her final hours?
