In the quiet, rural town of Cincinnati, Iowa, the life of 56-year-old Doretta Mae Glascock, a Caucasian female, was brought to a tragic and violent end on July 12, 2009. On that Sunday morning, a 911 call summoned Appanoose County Sheriff's deputies to her home, where they discovered she had been shot multiple times and was deceased. The scene that unfolded pointed to a domestic disturbance that had escalated to a fatal conclusion.
At the residence, deputies also found Doretta's estranged husband, 66-year-old Jackie Glascock, Senior. He too had suffered from more than one gunshot wound and was in critical condition. He was subsequently airlifted to a hospital in Iowa City for medical treatment. The investigation into the incident revealed that Doretta had sought and obtained a protective order against her estranged husband just the month prior, signaling a history of domestic troubles that sadly culminated in her death. While the case was described as domestic in nature, no immediate charges were filed at the time of the incident.
