Dasia Johnson,22, lived at an apartment building as a client for the non-profit program, HousingPlus, an organization that provides housing for domestic violence victims, people with a criminal history, and other vulnerable populations. According to the New York Post, Johnson’s aunt said her niece wanted to leave her abusive relationship during a family dinner on Aug. 16 and aspired to become a teacher. Her boyfriend was arrested in March after he attempted to pick up his things but was stopped by security guards.
Although Johnson had a restraining order against her boyfriend, witnesses said they could hear the couple arguing in the hallway and the 23-year-old man screaming at one point, “The only way you out is when your mother gonna bury you, b*ch.” When Johnson’s aunt asked security guards to perform a wellness check, they said her boyfriend and another man didn’t allow them into the apartment.
“It’s just so sad. She was so skinny. This boy overpowered her… He was leeching off of her. He was using her kindness. Her mother is terminally ill and she needed a friend, and she thought that he was that friend.”

Before cops arrived at the scene, both men fled the scene, and the guards said the apartment was covered in blood. Investigators believe Johnson was killed and dismembered in her bathtub since a meat cleaver was nearby. Her aunt said security allowed the two men to walk from the scene, and now he’s listed as a person of interest.
“We want justice for Dasia. We want this boy found. That is why we are asking to put his picture out to the public. The public needs to be made aware of who he is. That’s why he’s so hard to pinpoint, nobody has his picture. This is really hard. She was a victim. She was full of life. I was trying to help her. I tried to step in. I pretty much raised her most of her life. I heard of one incident [between them] and I told her, ‘This is not love. It’s not going to get any better. It will only get worse.’”
Police are currently on the search for Johnson’s boyfriend.
