TOWN OF PIEHL, Wis. (AP) — Court documents in the case of a Wisconsin teen accused of killing her mother and stepfather say the slayings came the same day they warned the girl’s 22-year-old boyfriend to stay away from her.
Seventeen-year-old Ashlee Martinson was formally charged as an adult with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide in Oneida County after being brought back from Indiana, where she was arrested last month.
She’s accused of fatally stabbing 40-year-old Jennifer Ayers and shooting 37-year-old Thomas Ayers at the family’s home in the Town of Piehl.
Martinson and Ayers were former Hays residents. Ayers grew up in Hays and graduated from Hays High School in 1992. She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Fort Hays State University and worked as a certified nurse’s assistant.
The Stevens Point Journal reports that court documents made public Friday say Martinson’s boyfriend told investigators her parents warned him via Facebook to stay away from the girl because she was a minor.
