Who was convicted of Jamie Faith’s murder?
Jennifer Faith pleaded guilty to orchestrating the murder of her husband Jamie Faith in 2020.
She convinced her secret boyfriend Darrin Lopez to murder Jamie, who was shot seven times outside their family home.
Jamie was attacked while leaving for a morning walk with Jennifer and their dog.
A masked individual shot him three times in the head, three times in the chest and once in the groin before fleeing in a black truck with a “T” decal.
Jennifer claimed she was attacked and duct-taped by the assailant. Jamie was pronounced dead at the scene.
After the murder, Jennifer appeared on local Dallas TV begging the killer to come forward, saying: “I just hope that at some point, maybe, this person can recognise the gravity of what they’ve done and feel some sort of guilt enough to come forward.”
Jennifer and Jamie, an American Airlines manager, met on a blind date 15 years before the incident and went on to get married in 2012.
Jamie legally adopted Jennifer’s daughter from a previous marriage.
The couple moved to Dallas from Arizona in 2017.
Jennifer later reconnected with her high school sweetheart Darrin, an Army veteran, and the two started an affair.
The investigation revealed Lopez drove a black Nissan truck with a “T” decal — the same truck seen fleeing the crime scene.
When Lopez was arrested in January 2021, investigators found the murder weapon, credit cards in Jennifer’s name and a mask matching the description of the one worn by the shooter in his possession.
He was charged with Jamie’s murder and a federal gun crime charge. He pleaded not guilty.

Jennifer Faith
Jennifer Faith maintained suspicious contact with Lopez after his arrest, sending money, gifts and credit cards paid for through a community GoFundMe fundraiser.
Lopez admitted to authorities that Jennifer asked him to help kill Jamie, saying he shot Jamie in the groin because of Faith’s fabricated abuse allegations against her husband.
Faith was charged with obstruction of justice in February 2021 after text messages between her and Lopez revealed she knew Lopez was a suspect but remained in contact with him instead of alerting the police.
Texts showed coordinated cover stories between Jennifer and Lopez, including her instructing him to claim he was an old friend going through a divorce.
In September 2021, prosecutors added a murder-for-hire charge, which carries the possibility of the death penalty.
Jennifer eventually pleaded guilty to this charge in February 2022.
In exchange for her plea, prosecutors agreed to drop the obstruction charge and recommended a life sentence.
Jennifer Faith was sentenced to life imprisonment and ordered to pay a $250,000 fine and $6,500 in restitution to Jamie’s family for funeral expenses.
Prosecutor Jeffrey Boshek summarised the case as one of “lies, deceit, and ultimately the murder of a loving spouse”.
He added: “After attempting to manipulate family, friends and caring citizens, Mrs. Faith has now admitted to her heinous acts.”
While Jennifer did not personally pull the trigger, she was deemed responsible as the mastermind behind the murder.

Jurors took less than an hour to convict him. Lopez was sentenced to 62 years in prison.
During the trial, Lopez expressed regret, stating he believed he was protecting Jennifer and that he had been manipulated by her fabricated claims of abuse.
The defence argued Lopez was manipulated due to a traumatic brain injury and PTSD from his military service.
But prosecutors emphasised he had other options to avoid killing Jamie.
Lopez maintains his innocence on appeal.
My Wife, My Killer and the Secret Footage
The murder of Jamie Faith was captured in haunting detail by security footage from his home, showing the moments just before and after he was shot seven times outside his Dallas residence in broad daylight.
The footage became crucial evidence as investigators pieced together the shocking truth behind the crime.
What initially appeared as a random attack was later revealed to be a murder-for-hire plot masterminded by Jamie’s wife Jennifer.
Surveillance images of the killer’s black truck, along with digital footprints from phones and financial records, helped authorities track down Jennifer’s boyfriend Darrin, who carried out the killing.
The secret footage, combined with a massive digital trail of texts and emails, including fabricated abuse allegations sent by Jennifer to Lopez, exposed the sinister conspiracy and cover-up efforts.
My Wife, My Killer and the Secret Footage airs on Channel 5 at 9pm on Wednesday, September 3, 2025.
