(Ankeny, IA) An Ankeny man has entered a guilty plea to charges he caused his pregnant girlfriend’s death. Seventeen-year-old Mia Holmes was shot to death last August, also resulting in the death of her unborn child. Eighteen-year-old Donault Logan was initially identified as a material witness. When he finally turned himself in a month later, charges were filed. The victim’s mother, Rhia Ortega, says she believes the shooting was an accident and the two were in love. Logan pleaded guilty last week to involuntary manslaughter. He will be sentenced in June.
