“Eloise always put her children first,” said Christena Chairs, one of her sisters. “Eloise was shot in front of her children, blood covering them all.” 

According to Christena, Eloise had given birth just 4 weeks prior to her very first daughter. Something her sister says she was particularly excited about after her first four were all boys.

Pollion is currently being held at Scott County Jail without bond, and faces charges of 1st Degree murder, WQAD reports. Chairs was originally from Chicago and that’s where her family plans to lay her to rest.

Garrolyn Vah, one of Chairs’ very close friends described the mom of five as “very charismatic, smart, funny, and very caring to the people around her.”

“How can someone be so cruel to the babies,” Van asked. “Especially the newborn?” 

And those who live in the area, were also affected by the news, even though they didn’t know the victims or the suspect. As one person told WQAD, he feels for the kids who had to witness such senseless violence.

“What about the kids. That’s immediately the thought,” said John DeTaeye. “The kids that were here for whatever reasons. Those sounds of gunshots will live on with those kids for the rest of their lives, and every time they pass this place they’re gonna think of how awful that was.”
