Anne-Marie Green

As soon as I walked in, you could see right here, she was laying on the bed.

The blood was just all over the floor, the side of the bed.

Where's your dad at this time?

He was on the phone somewhere, maybe downstairs.

And I couldn't really see what he was doing.

And then I grabbed a towel off the floor, and I held a towel on her head.

I just remember yelling to him to please help me and I remember asking her, please mom, just like squeeze my hand.

Did your mom respond to you?

No.

Do you remember asking him what happened?

Not that night.

At one point I remember him saying he was putting the gun away under the bed and she sat down and the gun went off.

Did you know at the time that he had also been shot?

I remember his hand being wrapped up.

Why do you think your father was so open about talking with the police?

I think he was trying to prove that he was innocent.

There's so many twists and turns.

And this is the story for generations that we have to tell.

And that's pretty sad.

On a steamy August night in 2013, Melissa Recuba was airlifted to this hospital, still clinging to life, with a bullet wound to her head.
