Gretchen Nicole Easton, 45, of Dallas, Texas, was found dead on the kitchen floor of her apartment on July 8, 2019. Police were called after her boyfriend, 34-year-old Donald Jamain Henderson, contacted 911 and then provided officers with the apartment address and a key; officers located Easton at the scene.

According to the arrest warrant affidavit, Henderson told detectives he and Easton were alone when the shooting occurred and said the shooting was accidental. He was arrested that night and booked into the Dallas County jail on a murder charge. The case moved through court with testimony from both sides and police evidence; the court later found Henderson guilty of murder and imposed a prison sentence.

The case underscores the deadly consequences of domestic violence and the risks present in intimate-partner disputes. If anyone knew Gretchen, her movements that day, or has information about the events leading up to July 8, 2019, please share what you know.
