911 Call: 5-Year-Old Finds Parents Fatally Wounded Child Calls Police After Finding Parents Shot, Bleeding POSTED: 3:26 pm EST March 30, 2005 VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. -- Wednesday police released the transcript of a 911 call made by a 5-year-old after she found her parents shot to death. Investigators say David Edward Johnson, of Volusia County, wrongly believed that Aeneas and Julie Hernlen had reported him for growing marijuana and possessing steroids. Police said Johnson broke into the Hernlen's house and fatally shot the couple before killing himself. Julie Hernlen, 31, died Monday and her husband, 29-year-old Aeneas Hernlen, died at a Daytona Beach hospital on Tuesday. The couple's 5-year-old daughter, Tia, was awakened by gunshots shortly before 3 a.m. Monday, found her parents and called police. Police released the transcript of the 911 call Tia made after she found her mother dead or dying and father mortally wounded in the bedroom of their New Smyrna Beach home: OPERATOR: 911, what is your emergency? CHILD: Um, hello. OPERATOR: Hello. Is everything OK? CHILD: My mommy and daddy OPERATOR: Uh-huh. CHILD: I think there is a bullet on the floor. OPERATOR: And the what? CHILD: And there is blood, coming out of my dad's mouth and he fell off the bed. OPERATOR: He did? Where's mommy at? CHILD: She is, I don't know, I think they're dead. OPERATOR: What do you mean, sweetheart? CHILD: I don't know. OPERATOR: OK, your daddy's on the floor. How old are you? CHILD: I'm 5 years old and I have a dog in a house. OPERATOR: OK baby, OK. Let me get someone right over to you. Did you, did you go in your mommy and daddy's room? CHILD: Uh-huh, and there is blood. OPERATOR: All over the place? CHILD: Not all over. There's blood on the plant and blood on the floor. OPERATOR: Oh my goodness, and you have your little doggie with you? CHILD: And three cats. OPERATOR: And three cats, too? CHILD: Three cats and one dog. OPERATOR: OK, are you the only one there besides mommy and daddy? CHILD: Well I said "Mommy" and "Daddy" and they didn't even answer. OPERATOR: OK, OK, what I want you to do, honey, I want you to stay on the phone with me. What is your name? CHILD: (tells operator her name) OPERATOR: Oh, that is a very pretty name. CHILD: (name not to be released) OPERATOR: Oh, I'm so sorry, that is a beautiful name. What is your doggie's name? CHILD: Lizzah OPERATOR: OK, and what made you wake up tonight? CHILD: There was, I think I heard a gunshot. OPERATOR: You heard a gun? CHILD: Yes, and I see a bullet lying on the floor. I think it's a bullet. OPERATOR: Really! CHILD: Mmm-hmm OPERATOR: Who has a gun in the house? CHILD: I don't see a gun but I'm scared. OPERATOR: Oh sweetheart! I will not let anything happen to you. CHILD: Can you send a deputy down here? OPERATOR: I promise I will . . . and you're only 5 years old? CHILD: Mmm-hmm OPERATOR: You are so smart for 5 years old. Wow! Are you off from school this week? CHILD: Um, no, I go to school next year. OPERATOR: You do? Oh,my gosh, you're not even in kindergarten yet? CHILD: Nope. OPERATOR: Oh, what's your doggie's name? CHILD: Lizzah.br /> OPERATOR: Lizzah, what kind of doggie is she? CHILD: She's a lab. OPERATOR: Oh my God, I love those. Those are so beautiful. Is she a black lab or is she a yellow lab? CHILD: A black lab. OPERATOR: Oh, you are so smart. CHILD: With, um, brown eyes. OPERATOR: Oh my goodness, how old is she? CHILD: She is like 3 years old, or, 2 years old, I don't really know. OPERATOR: Wow! You can remember for a really long time. CHILD: Yup. OPERATOR: Oh my goodness. Was there anybody else in the house tonight besides you and mommy and daddy tonight? Like an uncle or anything? CHILD: No, there's no robber in the house. OPERATOR: OK, well I didn't think there would be a robber, sweetheart. Did you have anybody staying over the night with you guys tonight? CHILD: Nnn- nnn OPERATOR: OK. So and the doors are all locked and everything like that? Where are you in the house? CHILD: Well, I was in my room sleeping till I heard a noise shot and it woke me up. OPERATOR: Oh my goodness. Uh, what part of the house are you in at now? CHILD: I'm in the one, it's yellow, all yellow house, of green, green with it, a little bit of green, and a pink door. OPERATOR: Oh my goodness, that sounds really cool. Did you pick out the pink door? CHILD: Um, no, my mom picked out the door. OPERATOR: Look, I bet you that is beautiful. Do mommy and daddy have a car in the driveway? CHILD: Mmm-hmm, two cars. OPERATOR: Two cars? What kind of cars do they have? CHILD: Umm, my mom has a Toyota OPERATOR: What color is that Toyota? CHILD: Umm OPERATOR: Is it dark, or gray, or silver? CHILD: It's um red. OPERATOR: Red? OK, what kind of car does daddy have? CHILD: He has a Jeep. It's black and . . . OPERATOR: OK, listen to me,(name). Is your phone the type that you can take with you and walk around? CHILD: Um, this . . . OPERATOR: There should be an officer at your front door. I need for you to take your phone with you and walk over to the door and open it for me, OK? And I will stay on the phone with you, OK? CHILD: But um . . . OPERATOR: I will not hang up. CHILD: I'm naked. OPERATOR: Oh, well do you want to grab a towel or something? I don't think the officer's going to care, baby. We just want to make sure that mommy and daddy are OK, all right? CHILD: Mmm-hmm. OPERATOR: Grab a blanket or something. Stay on the phone with me. Stay on the phone, all right? CHILD: OK. OPERATOR: My name is Donna, by the way. You are doing a wonderful job (blocked), wonderful job. CHILD: And I know what to do for (incoherent) OPERATOR: You did great! CHILD: I knew… OPERATOR: You were wonderful, absolutely wonderful. You should be very proud of yourself. CHILD: I'm to the door. I'm unlocking it. OPERATOR: OK, you let me know when the officer talks to you. OK you go ahead (blocked), talk to the officer. OFFICER: (background) You talking to the dispatcher? OK, tell her I'm here now and you can hang up. OPERATOR: Bye, sweetheart. CHILD: Um, he's here. OPERATOR: OK sweetheart, you be good, OK? Bye-bye. David Edward Johnson, 33, committed suicide at his home later that day, Volusia County sheriff's investigators said. No suicide note was found. Authorities said Johnson shot the Hernlens because he believed the couple had turned him into law enforcement in November. Sheriff's investigators have said the Hernlens had nothing to do with Johnson's arrest. -------------

You see what happens when we assume, so lets not. For all we know he was not aware of the girl. Infact, if he had known she was there he probably would have killed her too. |

I shed a tear for her.
She is a very brave little girl. I was having out with my nephew today and he is close to her age. I couldnt imagine what it would be like for him to go through that. Best wishes for her at finding a bright and happy future. -------------
