Summary based on 2 sources
Day'zshia McKinley, a 27-year-old woman from Fort Worth, Texas, tragically lost her life on April 21, 2018. She was fatally shot outside her apartment's front door while her three young children, ages 5, 3, and 18 months, were inside. The incident occurred moments after McKinley answered the door and stepped outside into the apartment complex's breezeway. Neighbors reported hearing a fight before shots were fired.

Following McKinley's death, her family suspected her ex-boyfriend, Christopher Jaren Manning, of being responsible. McKinley and Manning had dated twice before breaking up in late 2017. According to McKinley's mother, Yvette Robson, Manning had stalked McKinley after their breakup and was not a good role model for the children. Manning was arrested over a year later and charged with murder. He remains behind bars in Tarrant County Jail on a $100,000 bail.

The case has drawn significant attention, highlighting issues of domestic violence and the impact on families. McKinley's mother has since organized fundraisers to support victims of domestic violence in honor of her daughter. The investigation and legal proceedings continue as the family seeks justice for Day'zshia McKinley.
