Milwaukee mother on a mission to solve her daughters cold case murder
"Ashleigh, a recent graduate of Pius High School, had been shot in the head while lying in bed.
"I lost part of myself in that moment," Tammy said. "It doesn't make sense. It still hurts every day. I'll never get her back. She got robbed of life."
The intruder did not take anything from the home, that's why investigators didn't believe it was a random crime. But nine years later, they still don't know who did it.
"I believe there has to be someone out there who knows something," Tammy said. "It's not about closure. Nothing will bring her back. It's about finding who did this and holding them responsible for taking a life."
"Initially, Milwaukee Police were looking for someone Ashleigh may have met online. Tammy says a neighbor reported seeing a pick-up truck and two men outside her home. But there have been no new leads.
"I have hope that one day we will find out who did this," Tammy said. "My daughter may not be here physically, but I know she's with me every step of the way."
