Witnesses say the 37 year old woman died in front of her parents and two of her friends. One friend tells News Five the couple was on again-off again. Jo Dunaway says the woman was packing her things when her ex-husband pulled the trigger. "He had stolen her debit card had taken money out of her bank account over the weekend. It was just she knew that it was going to escalate to this and the last thing she said to me was, Jo he's going to kill me,"Said Dunaway.
