On a tragic day in Stevensville, Montana, the life of 47-year-old Caucasian female Tiffanie Greenslade was cut short in a violent encounter. The events of March 10, 2020, unfolded at a trailer on her own property, where her son, 25-year-old Logan Dallas Christopher, resided with his partner, 25-year-old Marisa Wahl, and their two young children. The day had begun with a confrontation, as Tiffanie and her husband, Noe Christopher, spoke with their son about his apparent use of illegal drugs.
Later that evening, a sense of dread filled the air when Tiffanie received a distressing phone call from Marisa, who pleaded for them to come to the trailer immediately. Rushing to help, Tiffanie and Noe were met with a horrific scene. Logan was armed and dangerous. Tiffanie bravely attempted to de-escalate the situation, urging her son to put the gun down. In the chaos that followed, Noe managed to grab one of their grandchildren and take the child to the main house before calling 911.
Upon his return to the trailer, he discovered that both Tiffanie and Marisa had been fatally shot. Tiffanie suffered multiple gunshot wounds. Noe was also shot in the arm as he fled.
Following the brutal double homicide, Logan Christopher fled the scene with law enforcement in pursuit. He was eventually apprehended in Missoula. In the wake of the tragedy, the community was left to grapple with the senseless loss of two women. The two young children, an infant and a toddler, who were present during the incident, were found physically unharmed but covered in blood.
Logan Christopher was charged with two counts of deliberate homicide for the deaths of his mother, Tiffanie Greenslade, and Marisa Wahl. He also faced charges of attempted deliberate homicide for the attack on his father, and criminal endangerment for putting his children at risk. He ultimately pleaded guilty to the charges and received a sentence of life in prison. While the exact trigger for the violent outburst remains unclear, it is believed to be connected to a combination of anger, drug use, and domestic stress, tragically culminating in a devastating loss for the family and community.
