On May 9, 2019, 16-year-old Kaylie Juga was shot and killed in her Kenosha, Wisconsin home. A sophomore at Bradford High School, Kaylie was an honor roll student, a National Honors Society member and a varsity cheerleader described as having a vibrant personality and a contagious laugh.

Prosecutors say the accused was her ex-boyfriend, Martice Fuller. Reports allege Fuller had become controlling and violent after the relationship ended, stalking and threatening Kaylie and ultimately being expelled from school. On the day of the killing, Fuller allegedly was dropped off blocks away, entered the home through the garage and confronted Kaylie in her bedroom. Kaylie’s mother, Stephanie Juga, ran to the room after hearing a scream and a bang. Prosecutors say Fuller shot Kaylie five times and also shot her mother twice.

Fuller is reported to have tried to hide his actions, changed clothes and fled on a bicycle before later confessing to a cousin who contacted police; he then turned himself in the next day. The case record shows allegations of planning and prior harassment that led Kaylie to quit her job.
