Beautiful mother of two is shot dead inside Mississippi McDonald's
A young Mississippi mother was gunned down inside a McDonald's in what police are calling a horrifying murder-suicide. Kianna Jackson, 25, was killed around 7 p.m. Monday, June 16, at the McDonald's on Stribling Lane in Brandon, just outside Jackson. Police say she was shot by 27-year-old Jhonterryes Dampier who then turned the weapon on himself. It is believed that her and Dampier shared a five-year-old daughter and a three-year-old son. He was rushed to the hospital in critical condition but died two days later. Jackson's relatives have put together a GoFundMe to cover funeral and burial expenses, with any leftover donations going toward a trust fund for her children. 'She was a cherished mother… a beloved daughter, sister and friend,' the family wrote in the description of the fundraiser. 'As we navigate this painful time, we want to honor Kianna's life with the memorial and funeral service she deserves.' Justin Taylor, who owns a local TV mounting business, said he was at the couple's home just two weeks before the shooting - and sensed something was off. He had been called over by Dampier to install a television in their living room and recalled feeling uneasy about the dynamic between the two, though he didn't say anything at the time. 'I can tell the dynamic between them wasn't right but that just wasn't my business… now it resulted to this,' he said in the post. In a Facebook post following the tragedy, Taylor expressed deep frustration, saying the situation had been weighing on him - especially since he had just been in close contact with them. Another mother, Billie Shantay McCune-Kidd, recalled a heartbreaking moment of connection with Jackson just minutes before the fatal shooting. In a Facebook post, she said their children had been playing together at a nearby park earlier that evening, and Jackson introduced herself and suggested exchanging numbers so the kids could have a future playdate. Jackson had mentioned she was planning to return to school for nursing and was heading to get food with her children after the park. McCune-Kidd said her niece wanted to go with them, but they had other plans and went their separate ways. Just five minutes later, Jackson was dead. McCune-Kidd said she was delayed by a car issue, and when she arrived near the Chick-fil-A and McDonald's, she saw the police and fire trucks - not realizing at first that the woman she'd just met had been killed. The investigation remains ongoing She described Jackson as 'so sweet,' with two 'precious' children, and urged others to support the GoFundMe set up in her memory, noting that the young mother's death was not only sudden and tragic, but left behind two children now facing a lifetime without her. Police have not yet released a motive, but say the investigation is ongoing.
