Area Fundraisers Benefit Murder Victim's Young Daughter

Fundraiser at Taco John's of Waukesha on Thursday will benefit the Nani Negron Memorial Fund.

Jaslene Negron’s only 3 years old, but already her life’s taken a tragic turn.

Her mother, Shanel “Nani” Negron, was killed by her boyfriend Eddie Callaway. Callaway, who was not Jaslene’s father, shot and killed himself when he was confronted by authorities in Indiana.

Negron’s friends and family are rallying around the little girl and are holding several benefits to help raise money for Jaslene after the death of her mother.
