On Thanksgiving evening, November 27, 2014, 18-year-old Diana Daughtry was shot and killed inside a home on Highway 50 East in Pueblo, Colorado. Emergency responders found her with a single, fatal gunshot wound to the head; she was taken to a local hospital and died in the early hours of the next morning.

The person who fired the shot was Diana’s 40-year-old live-in boyfriend, Aaron McDaniel, a man who had been a friend of the family for many years. McDaniel told sheriff’s deputies he had acted in self-defense, saying Daughtry had attacked him with a weapon. He was treated at the scene for injuries he said he sustained during the altercation.

The Pueblo County Sheriff’s Office, with help from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, investigated and the file went to the 10th Judicial District Attorney’s Office for review. In the immediate aftermath no arrest was made and McDaniel remained free; the family publicly questioned the plausibility of the self-defense claim, especially given that the bullet struck between her eyes. Does anyone have information about Diana or about what happened that night?
