Justin was gathered with his family in his home to celebrate his 3-day-old baby coming home from the hospital. The bullet struck him in the back of the head, killing him instantly. Shisler later pleaded guilty to manslaughter and in May 2015 was sentenced to 14 years in prison.<\/p>\n<p>Jessica Ayers initially told her story to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-3761912\/Jessica-Ayers-husband-Justin-Ayers-shot-killed-Charles-Shisler-Panama-City-writes-essay-grieving.html\">The Daily Mail<\/a> that same year and published an essay on her blog about the tragedy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Critics of Ayers\u2019s dance video compared it to another TikTok clip showing a mom who danced while her sick baby was in the hospital.
