Mr. & Mrs. Lofton before the domestic violence incident

According to a Petition for an Order of Protection, filed by Mrs. Lofton just a couple of hours after Trooper Lofton was arrested, Mrs. Lofton was afraid that her husband was going to murder her and she feared for her life.

Mrs. Lofton stated that on November 4th, Trooper Lofton slapped her during an argument and she ran into an bathroom to get away from him. Trooper Lofton kicked open the door and began beating on her.

Mrs. Lofton begged for him to spare her life. Then she told Trooper Lofton if she wanted her to "kill the man" she would do it in exchange for her life. A little while later he shoed her two guns that he said she was to use to kill Bernard Robinson and Michael Deloney.

On November 5th, after their children left their home for school, Trooper Lofton began beating on her again. Mrs. Loftin tried to flee from him and her tried to stop her. She was able to get away from him and used his ASP cellphone that was in his truck to call 911. 

At the time of publication, no further information about why Trooper Lofton wanted the two men killed or if they had any connection to Mrs. Lofton has been obtained.

Based on Mrs. Lofton's petition, a Temporary Order of Protection was granted.

A hearing has been set for December 9, 2024 at 11:30 a.m. at the Saline County Courthouse before Judge Brent Houston to determine if the Order of Protection will be extended.

Stay tuned for updates.
