On August 6, 2003, in rural Stockton, Iowa, 41-year-old Lisa Jo Hering was shot and killed at the family farm. The attack occurred while her four children and two visiting children were in the residence. Lisa’s husband, 42-year-old David Hering, was the person who shot her.

After the shooting, David Hering hid in a hog shed and exchanged gunfire with responding officers during a three-hour standoff. Deputies evacuated the children from the home before confronting the armed man. The standoff ended when a tactical unit shot David in the leg as he ran back toward the farmhouse; he was taken to a hospital and then arrested. Officers later found Lisa Hering’s body in a farm field; she died of gunshot wounds.

David Hering was jailed on a million-dollar bond and charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder for firing at law enforcement, and child endangerment; his defense team said psychiatric reports would play a role at trial. Does anyone have information about the family, the timeline that day, or witnesses who were nearby?
