Lindsey/Todd was shot to death, allegedly by Brian David Hill. They were a drag queen, and was last seen alive in May 1989. Their body was found on 24th December 1989.

A body, unearthed in the backyard of a southeast Portland home on December 24th, 1999, has been identified by police as that of Todd Alexander Asay, who worked as a female impersonator at Darcelle’s Nightclub, under the name of Lindsey Alexander.

Todd/Lindsey was last seen alive in May of 1989, and, due to circumstances surrounding the death, was listed as a homicide victim by Portland police. A phone tip led officers to the remains, located in the yard of a residence on Southeast Hollman Avenue. The Oregon State Medical Examiner’s office determined that the remains were, indeed, of Todd/Lindsey.

Police have also already determined a suspect in the case, that being Brian David Hill. Hill is currently in custody for the murder of his ex-wife. The owner of the yard in which the body was found was not linked to the death.

According to police. Todd/Lindsey was 25 years old at the time of the disappearance
