GLASGOW — A woman charged in connection to the death of her husband last summer has been released from jail. She is expected to be in court next week alongside her daughter.
Donna C. Logsdon, 71, of Glasgow, was jailed on Jan. 14 after a grand jury handed down an indictment for her and her daughter, Leighanne Bennett. Both were indicted on a charge of murder in the death of Michael O. Logsdon, 75, last July. Bennett was jailed and released last fall after an investigation began.
Court records indicate Logsdon was released on a partially secured bond on Monday. David L. Bennett, of McMinnville, Tenn., paid 10% of the total bond – which was $50,000 cash – to the Barren Circuit Court. He is the husband of Leighanne, the co-defendant in the case. Bennett also paid $50,000 last fall to the court to bond his wife out of jail.
Donna Logsdon and Leighanne Bennett are expected to appear in Barren Circuit Court on Feb. 6 at 1 p.m. Logsdon is to remain on home incarceration except for reasons pertaining to medical treatment, court hearings and attorney appointments, according to records obtained by WCLU News. The judge also ruled she must continue to wear an ankle monitor.
Judge John T. Alexander is presiding over the case.
