The Vue couple are survived by four children and the youngest is 4, according to a family member.
According to police, Popp went to the Vue's apartment and forced his way inside. Once inside, Popp gathered all the family members to a back room, then took Phia to the bathroom and shot him dead. He then took Mia and several young girls upstairs to his apartment and fatally shot her.
One of the teenagers was able to escape from a back room apartment window and went to a neighbor for help. The neighbor called police.
The Vue-Xiong family members are saying that Manso-Pérez was shot first over a laundry dispute and that both Mia and Phia were just innocent victims. Mia had just received her Bachelor degree from college.

Really? Over laundry machine? Must be on drugs. What an idiot! Hope he rots in hell.
What a dumbass. U should suffer and for it and die. I hope you die in a prison I hope you will see them every day in your cell. And realized that life is precious to everyone.
Dan Popp killed 3 person and his bond is only $150,000? You got to be kidding me!! ohhh i forgot, he's a white guy. If it was any other race, it would of been different. Dan Poppl deserve life in prison.

Need to petition or protest this. $150,000 is like the bond of a theft charge. What is wrong with them racist Wisconsin people?
This is a lot of bullshit really over laundry I believe this is just a racist act. If it was another race it would be the death penalty right but no he is white. People open up your eyes and see. Is people doing this cause Donald Trump is running for president? These 2 couple were innocent, now leaving behind 4 kids without a mom and dad.
