Zina V. Daniel Haughton, 42, female, was killed on October 21, 2012, in Brookfield, Wisconsin, when her estranged husband opened fire inside the Azana Salon & Spa where she worked. Late that Sunday morning, the gunman entered the spa and began shooting, killing three women—including Zina—and wounding four others before taking his own life. Authorities identified the shooter as 45-year-old Radcliffe Franklin Haughton, who died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the scene, bringing the
rampage to an end. The Waukesha County medical examiner later named the other two women killed as Cary L. Robuck, 35, of Racine, and Maelyn M. Lind, 38, of Oconomowoc.
The violence unfolded against a backdrop of escalating domestic abuse. Less than two weeks before the shooting, Haughton was arrested after slashing Zina’s tires outside the spa, prompting her to seek court protection. On October 18, a judge granted her a four-year restraining order and barred Haughton from possessing firearms—relief she pursued after describing how his threats “terrorize my every waking moment.” Despite the order, investigators said Haughton acquired a. 40-caliber handgun through a private sale shortly before the attack and used it in the killings.
Police and fire crews converged on the spa as victims fled or sheltered inside; a small fire was set but contained by sprinklers. By evening, officials confirmed three dead, four wounded, and the gunman deceased, noting the events were rooted in domestic violence. No arrests followed the shooting because the suspect died at the scene.
