Spokane County Sheriff’s Major Crimes Detectives, continuing to work on this investigation, gained new information regarding possible witness tampering and intimidation by the suspect, 34-year-old Shawna R. Langdon.
Langdon was arrested on October 18, 2024, after Investigators learned through their lengthy investigation that Langdon filed several false police reports claiming she had been assaulted, kidnapped, raped, and harassed, accusing her former husband of the crimes.
Through the extensive investigation, Detectives determined these allegations were false, and Langdon was arrested and booked into the Spokane County Jail for charges of Malicious Prosecution, False Reporting, and Making False Statements to a Public Servant.
On October 22, 2024, Langdon posted her bond, set at $5,000, and she was released from custody.
As the Detectives continued to investigate, they learned that following Langdon’s release, she tried to convince and threaten a juvenile witness into assuming the blame for the crimes Langdon is believed to have committed.
This afternoon, Langdon was again arrested and booked into the Spokane County Jail for new charges of Malicious Prosecution (two counts), Intimidating a Witness, Tampering with a Witness, False Reporting, and Making False Statements to a Public Servant.
