A 33-year-old man in Ohio may spend the rest of his life behind bars for killing the mother of his child, executing her with a single bullet to the face inside her home, then leaving their newborn alone with the body for over an hour before calling the police and claiming she had killed herself.

A jury in Franklin County found Dallas Lowery guilty on one count each of murder, felony murder, domestic violence, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and tampering with evidence in the 2022 slaying of Heather Chapman, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show. At the time of Chapman’s death, the child she shared with Lowery was 2 months old.

He was acquitted on one count of aggravated murder, which requires evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that Lowery planned to kill Chapman.

According to a news release from the Columbus, Ohio Division of Police, patrol officers at about 9:15 p.m. on Feb. 22, 2022, responded to a call reporting a shooting at a residence in the 1700 block of Melrose Avenue. Upon arriving at the address, first responders said they found an adult female — later identified as Chapman — suffering from what appeared to be a gunshot wound.

Emergency medical personnel with the Columbus Fire Department were dispatched to the scene where paramedics at about 9:22 p.m. pronounced Chapman dead. Police said that homicide detectives took over the investigation “due to some suspicious circumstances” at the crime scene.
