Jordon Cowan

From Terminator Wiki

Jordon Cowan was a student at Campo de Cahuenga High School with John Connor and Cameron Phillips. She committed suicide in 2007 by jumping off the roof of her school after a series of Trompe-l'œil frescoes, depicting a silhouette of two persons kissing, was painted on the walls of the school. The images insinuate that something happened involving her, and she was afraid that her parents would found out about it after the graffiti started appearing.

Jordon was born in 1992 and was a cheerleader at Campo de Cahuenga.

Name

Immediately following the suicide, Jordon's name was displayed on a memorial website as Jordon Cowan. Some students who wrote grief notes referred her as Jordan, with an "A". What appears to be her last name, Cowan, was displayed on the memorial website. However, Mr. Harris, the grief counselor does refer to her as what sounds like Tallen.

Behind the Scenes

In the DVD commentary for "The Turk" it is noted that the same stuntwoman who performs the high falls for Hayden Panatierre in Heroes was used in TSSC for Jordon. They also mention that they intentionally cast Jordon as a "Claire" look-alike to juxtapose their fragile cheerleader with the invulnerable one from Heroes.
