At three years old, the day care children really don't understand what happened to their teacher, Miss Courtney. They just know her leg was hurt but it's getting better and they helped her by doing what they could to help set up a center raffle and auction. The auction — which is open to the public through Monday and features coveted items like a shovel autographed by the "grave digger" former Green Bay Packer Gilbert Brown — is boosting the spirits of Miss Courtney, 22, who was one of the survivors of the Azana Salon & Spa mass shooting. Courtney Felecia Buss, a preschool teacher at All About Learning in Oconomowoc, also worked as a receptionist at Azana. She called the day care center on Monday, Oct. 22 to let them know she was at …

Just days after a Brown Deer man opened fire at the Azana Salon & Spa, Waukesha college students hold a vigil in the victim's memories.
Carroll University held a candlelight vigil Wednesday night to remember the victims of the Azana Salon & Spa shooting. Eight children lost their mothers in Sunday's mass shooting at the spa: Zina Haughton's two daughters, Cary Robuck's two daughters and Maelyn Lind's daughter and three sons. All three mothers worked at the spa, with Robuck and Lind holding down other jobs as well to make ends meet with their spouses or partners. The women lost their lives and four other women — three Azana employees and one customer — were injured in Sunday's mass shooting by Haughton's estranged husband, Radcliffe Haughton.

Criminologists, agents already looking at how Radcliffe Haughton fits into a pattern of rising workplace violence – and an eerily similar case last week in Florida.
Within hours after Radcliffe Haughton shot and killed three women and wounded four more in a Brookfield beauty salon before taking his own life, criminologists and federal agents were looking at the case as it fits into a rising tide of workplace slayings — and as a possible copycat killing. Larry Barton, the leading adviser to the FBI on workplace crimes, said he and the federal crime agency are looking into whether Haughton might have been “inspired” by a shooting Thursday that killed three women in a beauty salon in Casselberry, FL, a suburb of Orlando. The killer in that case also was the estranged husband of a salon stylist. She was also shot, and her husband then turned his gun on himself, hours before an injunction hearing. The …

Keith Hanson had watched his daughter, Maelyn Lind, fight her way through financial trouble and work three jobs to support her four children. He had seen her inner strength and compassion. So Hanson wasn't surprised when he learned from coworkers and police that his daughter, 38, had risked her own life to save a fellow Azana Salon & Spa employee from a gunman. He believes that fellow employee was Yasmeen Daniel, the daughter of Zina Haughton, 42, the principal target in Sunday's shooting and Lind's close friend. "Maelyn had stepped in front of the gun and took the bullet when he was going to shoot her," Hanson told Patch on Monday. "My daughter is an angel," he said, his voice choking with emotion. "She took a bullet for her friend’s …

But the father—named Radcliffe Haughton Sr.—acknowledged the marriage had problems. He said that his son was a Jamaica native who moved to Milwaukee as an adult. "I'm his father," his dad told Patch from his home in Florida before his son's body was discovered inside the spa Sunday afternoon. "My son is a good person. I can't tell you what I think happened. My son loved his wife, and he put his wife on a pedestal, and he cared about her. He raised her daughter which he accepts as his stepdaughter, and they have one child together. She is now 13." The younger Haughton …
