On the morning of June 7, 2023, a robbery in Leesville, South Carolina, left an innocent neighbor dead. Emily Renee Zeigler, 55, was inside her home on Pine Grove Road around 2:00 a.m. when gunfire erupted outside. Two men had come to rob a man sitting in a Lexus; the intended victim was shot multiple times and later airlifted in critical condition. When Ms. Zeigler opened her front door to see what was happening, she was struck in the chest and died shortly thereafter from a single gunshot wound to the heart.

Investigators recovered at least eleven fired cartridge cases from two different weapons, a .40 caliber and a 9mm, and a palm print later identified as belonging to Jalin Trevon Jordan. The robbery victim identified one attacker as Rese, and cell phone records showed contact between Tyrese Rese Dwan Glascho and Jalin Trevon Jordan in the hours before the shooting. Authorities arrested Glascho, then 24, and Jordan, then 18, charging both with murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, criminal conspiracy, and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. A judge later addressed sentencing and family members spoke about the impact of Emily Zeigler’s death.
