Jensen was transported to Samaritan Albany General Hospital and later transferred to Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland for treatment.

The investigation revealed that Davis and Jensen had been having an affair, according to police. Davis had ended the relationship several weeks before the shooting.

The day of the shooting, Jensen went to Davis' home and got into an argument with her. Soon he assaulted Tim Hardin with a handgun, Carter said.

Hardin escaped but Jensen shot Deborah Davis in the head and then did the same to himself. Hardin was treated and released for his injuries.
