In the small community of Manton, Michigan, the life of 41-year-old Rosetta Mae Stanfield was cut short on November 14, 2020. Reports from that time indicate that she was fatally shot in an incident that was initially investigated as a possible accident. The circumstances surrounding her death prompted an immediate response from local law enforcement, who began looking into the tragic event.
Rosetta, a resident of nearby Buckley, was a graduate of Mesick High School.
She was known for her love of the outdoors, often spending her time hunting, fishing, and camping. She was married to her husband of twenty years, Eric A. Stanfield, Sr., and together they had a son, Eric Stanfield, Jr. Her passing left a void in her family, which included her mother, brothers, and other relatives.
Despite the passage of time, publicly available information regarding the investigation into Rosetta Stanfield's death remains scarce. Details concerning any potential suspects or arrests in connection with the shooting have not been widely disclosed. The official conclusions of the law enforcement investigation into the specific events that led to her death have not been publicly detailed, leaving a full public resolution to the case wanting. Graveside services were held for Rosetta on November 24, 2020, at Cornell Cemetery in Wexford Township.
