SEATTLE — A West Seattle woman was killed after she armed herself with a shotgun on Tuesday while two people were serving her paperwork and one of the people shot her, according to the Seattle Police Department.
Just after 1 p.m. on Oct. 1, two people arrived at the woman’s home in the 4400 block of Southwest Hudson Street in West Seattle. The woman, identified as 57-year-old Tamara Towers Parry, left her home while carrying a shotgun, police said.
One of the men there to serve paperwork then fired his gun and shot her in the torso. Parry died at the scene.
Police said both of the people serving paperwork were cooperative and all the firearms involved in the shooting were recovered.
Investigators did not release any information as to what the paperwork was about.
No arrests have been made and police are continuing to investigate.
Insurrection involvement
In January 2021, Parry posted videos of herself at the Jan. 6 insurrection at the White House. She said on X, previously known as Twitter, that she attended the rally as part of "Doctors for Trump."
Parry was a former doctor with Swedish, however, she lost her license in 2022, KING 5 previously reported. She has not been affiliated with the hospital since May 2015, the hospital said.
In videos posted to her since-deleted social media account, Parry showed herself carrying a Q-Anon flag in Washington, D.C.
"Hi patriots, it's Doctor Tammy and Nurse Melissa. We just stormed the Congress and I'm going to tell you right now, it was wild," she said in a video. She tells viewers the two were sprayed with either tear gas or pepper spray at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
"We're a little congested and our eyes are burning, but compared to what our Founding Fathers did, it's the least we can do. So, God bless America. Joe Biden did not win," she said in the 2021 video.
President Joe Biden won the 2020 Presidential Election and was running for a second term until July 21. He withdrew from the race and has since been replaced by Vice President Kamala Harris.
In March 2022, the Washington Medical Commission told KING 5 that Parry did not respond to an investigative examination and was suspended.
