Donna Duran, 48, died from a gunshot while on a hunting trip near Dadeville, Alabama, on January 6, 2019. Her husband was the only witness to the shooting; initial statements described the event as an accidental discharge. The Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department investigated the scene.

As the probe continued, conflicting details emerged. Donna’s daughter, Hannah, says investigators told her they had concerns about her stepfather’s account and that he had been untruthful about key elements. The official autopsy listed the manner of death as undetermined, stopping short of confirming an accident. No arrests have been announced, no suspects officially named, and the investigation is reported to be inactive.

Donna’s family continues to seek clarity about what happened in the woods that day. If anyone has information about the January 6, 2019 hunting trip near Dadeville or saw anything relevant, please come forward.
