At Rest

Deadly force
Similar to the better-known case of Rachel Hoffman, police pressed Seeger into service as a drug "informant" (actually undercover agent) to avoid her own narcotics charges. After her name became public record, she began to be suspected by narcotics figures and received threats. Turning to the sheriff's case managers for some kind of protection, she was turned down, and was shot dead in her car about a month later. Her family filed a wrongful death suit against the county.
This record exists so that Jamie Lee Seeger, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
