STORY:
The Murder of Lucinda Davis Coons & her daughter Nellie
The Murder of Lucinda Davis Coons & her daughter Nellie
In the morning of May 11, 1892 William Coons went out of
town leaving his wife Lucinda ,10 year old daughter Nellie and 16 year old
nephew James Dooley at home. When came home several hours later, he found
his wife and daughter murdered.
James was working for his Aunt and uncle as a farm hand.
After William left the house, Lucinda scolded James for neglecting their cattle
and allowing them to get into a neighbors field.This made James angry. At some
point during the morning he had gone into town and purchased a revolver.
When Lucinda scolded him repeatedly over and over he took a padlock he had in
his pocket and hit Lucinda on the head with it twice. This knocked her down
where they struggled for a time and he then shot her. Nellie was out in the
barn and came running in. As she came in James hit her on the head with the
padlock knocking her down and then shooting her in the forehead. He layed
the bodies in the bed and then took some clothes and a team of horses and buggy
and drove away. He was caught the next day a few miles away at the home of
another relative where he was arrested and sentenced to death for first degree
murder. There was also some speculation that he may have tried to sexually
assault his Aunt and Cousin, but this was not proven. He was taken to the Iowa
State Penitentiary where he was imprisoned until October 19, 1894 when he was
executed by hanging. He was 18 years old at the time of his execution making
him the youngest person to be executed at the prison and he was also the first
person to be executed at the new prison.
