"She got cheated," says Brenda Stout of her niece, Julie Mishoe. "Her life should never have been taken from her. Her three daughters are going to be the ones to suffer."

Mishoe's aunts and sister-in-law sit at her home, still unable to believe this young woman with so much life ahead of her is now dead.

Twenty-nine-year-old Mishoe was shot and killed early Saturday morning by her on-again off-again boyfriend, also the father of her three daughters.

He then turned the gun on himself.

In the wake of this dark tragedy, family members are trying to remember Mishoe's brightness.

"We called her 'Ju-Ju-Bee,'" says aunt Tammy Hart. "I'll remember her giggles, her laughs..."

"You couldn't ask for a better person," Stout says. "She was never mad, always happy."

Police are saying 36-year-old Indiana man Ronald Dailey showed up to Mishoe's Williamston home after a heated phone call and abducted her.

He then took her to rural Vevay Township, near Mason, where the murder-suicide took place.

Her family says Mishoe was letting her dog out in the backyard when her ex-boyfriend took her. They say she likely went without struggle, as not to scare or endanger her family.

"I can see her just walking, saying 'okay, let's go,'" Hart says. Sister-in-law Cathy Mishoe agrees, saying it seems Mishoe succumbed to the abduction.

The family says there were warning signs, that Dailey was possessive, threatening and obsessed with Mishoe. But Mishoe had grown up without a father and couldn't bare to see her daughters do the same.

"She wanted her kids to know their father," Hart says.

Tragically, that mindset backfired, and now Mishoe's three daughters are left without mother or father-- that's a reality this close-knit family has yet to accept.
