Dakota Allen Cook was 21 when he was shot on the morning of April 8, 2014, at about 10:30 a.m. in an apartment at North Augusta Gardens Apartments. He was found inside the home with a single gunshot wound and was taken to a nearby medical center, where he later died.

Authorities say the shooting followed a domestic dispute. The investigation identified his wife, Terry Cook, as the person who fired the shot; she was taken into custody and charged with murder. The couple’s four children, all under five, were in the home at the time and were not physically injured. Memorial services were held for Dakota, and the community was left to reckon with the loss.

If anyone knew Dakota, his family, or the circumstances that led to that April morning, please share information that could help clarify what happened.
