John Fitzgerald Mazara, 56, was found dead in his Columbus, Ohio, apartment on Gadwell Road near New Albany on February 23, 2020. Reports state he died of a gunshot wound to the head. Mazara was a United States Army veteran of Dominican ethnicity.

His girlfriend, Danielle Ennis, 30, was charged in connection with his death; she told investigators she shot Mazara at his request, but investigators determined she was responsible for his killing and took her into custody shortly after the shooting. The case attracted attention because Ennis’s defense raised questions about her mental state; court filings discussed competency.
