Lucy Lynn Fritscher Brewer, 53, was shot and killed at a residence on Highway 100 in Centerville, Tennessee, on Tuesday, June 15, 2021. Officers found her deceased from a gunshot wound; her husband, Earl Brewer, was critically wounded and taken to a Nashville hospital.

Investigators identified Gary Tidwell as the person responsible. Authorities say Tidwell posted a message on Facebook before the shooting describing an intention to kill Lucy and then himself and alleging an affair Lucy had confessed to her husband. Tidwell was located the next morning in a wooded area on County Line Road and taken into custody. He has a prior second-degree murder conviction and was charged with criminal homicide in Lucy Brewer’s death, attempted criminal homicide for Earl Brewer, and being a felon in possession of a firearm; he was booked into the Hickman County Jail without bond.

Lucy Brewer was described as an upbeat animal lover who enjoyed time with family and pets. Does anyone in the Centerville area have information about Lucy, her family, or the events leading up to June 15?
