A young woman who was killed in a double murder over the weekend had
struggled to stay in the US after an immigration battle involving
herself and her sister.
In 2005 the US Governemnt was threatening to deport Mariam Sarkisian
and her sister the two back to Armenia despite living in the
U.S. nearly their whole lives.
According to police, 23-year-old Gregg Thomas, who friends say was
Mariam's ex-boyfriend, showed up at Mariam's home unannounced.
"He broke the door wide open and Mariam was standing. He shot her. And
then the momma was on the couch. He shot her," said Yelena Flangas,
family friend.
Also in the home was the couple's 1-year-old child and Mariam's
younger sister who screamed at Thomas during the shooting.
Friends say the couple had recently split and were arguing over their
young daughter.
There are still four other surviving sisters all under the age of 25
in this family along with the couple's little girl.
