'daddy, Daddy, What Are You Doing?', Mother Hears Last Words Of 11 Yr Old Daughter

[Jessiesgirl1108]

The mother of an 11-year-old girl from Kentucky who was shot dead by her father in a murder-suicide this week was on the phone with her and heard the child's anguished last words moments before gunfire erupted on the other end of the line.
Police say 49-year-old US Army Lt Colonel John Jonas gunned down his daughter, Tasha, and then turned the gun on himself outside their Vine Grove home Monday night.
Tanja Manojlovic, a friend of Tasha's mother, Karina Jonas, said the woman, who lives in Chesapeake, Virginia, called her ex-husband on the night of the tragedy and heard her 11-year-old daughter's last words: 'Daddy, daddy, what are you doing?’

[...]

According to the friend, Tasha moved to Kentucky with her father two years ago after a family court judge granted John Jonas, a high-ranking Army officer serving at Fort Knox, full custody of his daughter following a protracted legal fight.
But her mother, a native of Uzbekistan, continued to fight for custody. Manojlovic said Karina Jonas was convinced her daughter was in danger and repeatedly attempted to warn lawyers, the military and court officials in Kentucky and Virginia of the perceived threat.
[...]

Police have not released an official motive behind the murder-suicide, but friends and neighbors said John Jonas was concerned about a court hearing in Virginia that was scheduled for August 19.

By that time, Tasha would have turned 12 and could choose whom to live with.

The ultimate "if I can't have her then no one can".

I hope that bastard burns in the fires of Hell for eternity.

I understand these soldiers fought for us and our country and I support our soldiers to the fullest but I think that people in authority tend to bias their decisions towards the fact that they are military and that's not always the best decision. I've read other articles similar to this and unfortunately the outcomes are devastating.

Am I the only one who thinks Daddy Dearest was trying to hide something before the August trial? Like maybe an inappropriate relationship with his daughter?

Does anyone know the real story behind this? There was a bit more to the original story I remember years ago, the girl actually said
'daddy, Daddy, What Are You Doing? DON'T TOUCH ME THERE!
Mommy was going to turn him in to the authorities when he decided to cap it off.

What in the fuck does that have to do with this tragedy?

Bindtorturekill, is that you?

Poor baby and poor mom. I feel for you and you both have my prayers. R.I.P., Tasha.

God I hope not.

This breaks my heart and mostly for mom. At least the daughter is somewhere better now. If I was the mom, I'd be eating a gun too.

Why do folks do these kind of things to their children? I think he was mostly trying to make sure his ex spent the rest of her life regretting she ever met him, so he took her daughter. Bastard!
