I am not exactly sure what code to post with this considering the nature of what's going on, so I'll do my best to explain and then perhaps I can provide code based on your responses.
When my application loads in the AppDelegate I create 3 objects of the "Item" type and then create an array out of those objects and add that array to an ItemListController which has a property for an NSMutableArray. The program then loads a UINavigationController with each of those objects in it being drawn with a subClass of UITableViewCell. As it stands now, if I click on any one of those objects more than 3 times, the object itself does not become nil, but all of the fields within it do.
The click handler of my TableView right now simply calls the AppDelegate's instance of ItemListController and then gets the object back from the items array at the index at which the user clicked. From there, I set a few properties and load a view tailored to that Item.
Presently, all of the logic that sets properties with the Item and loads the view for that object is commented out and so the only behavior occurring is the Item being retrieved from the AppDelegate's ItemListController.items and then being stored in a temporary object which is later released. But like I said above, after 3 requests for my object, all of its fields become invalid. I have no idea what is causing it because the object itself is never being released within that time. Below is the code from the click event of the table cell:
Here's a snapshot from the debugger after my Item object dies:
