A 7-year-old Ohio girl begged her father not to kill her after he threatened murder and suicide: ‘I don’t want to go to heaven today’

A seven-year-old Ohio girl begged her father not to kill her as he threatened to kill her and himself during a standoff with police before being shot dead by officers. The young girl said, “I don’t want that.” Go to heaven today.

Charles Ryan Alexander, 43, kidnapped his daughter Oaklynn from her grandmother’s home in Jefferson County on Nov. 11. Alexander did not have custody of his child.

According to the Medina County Sheriff’s Office, the girl was the subject of an Amber Alert that triggered a police pursuit after the Brunswick Division of Police located the child in the city of Brunswick. The driver refused to stop for an attempted traffic stop and multiple jurisdictions joined in the pursuit.

Police eventually used stop sticks to deflate Alexander’s tires and force his vehicle to stop, leading to a standoff with law enforcement in a parking lot.

According to WKYC, audio recording of Alexander’s communications with law enforcement revealed that the armed father threatened to kill his daughter and himself.

“I’m going to shoot us both, stay back!” he shouted.

In the background, Oaklynn could be heard repeatedly begging her father not to carry out his threat. “Please don’t,” she said.

Alexander also threatened the mother of his child, telling the girl: “I want to talk to her mother. If you’re listening, Ashley, you should have called.”

The girl then asks her father if they are “both going to heaven.”

“How do you know we’re going to heaven?” she asks.

Her father replies, “We’re both going.”

Oaklynn continues to ask her father questions.

“I’m going to heaven?” she asked. But when she realizes what going to heaven would mean for her, she screams, “No!”

“I don’t want to go to heaven today,” Oaklynn was heard telling her father, who responds: “I didn’t want it to happen either, I just wanted to talk to your mother.”

A 911 dispatcher then tells Alexander, “I know you didn’t mean to hurt (your daughter) and you didn’t mean for it to be like this.”

“Let’s not do anything we can’t undo,” the dispatcher added.

Oaklynn can be heard repeatedly asking if she’s “going to heaven today,” and at one point she screamed, “I don’t want that!”
