TikToker father shot and killed her stalker during a home invasion.

On July 10, 2020, Majury's stalker, Eric Rohan Justin, broke into her home in Naples, Florida, and used a shotgun to blow a hole through her bedroom door.

Justin had been obsessed with the young content creator, who is now 15 years old.

Majury began receiving messages from 18-year-old Justin in early 2020 from an account named EricJustin111.

While Justin's interactions at first seemed like harmless Snapchat and Instagram messages, they soon took a darker turn.

As time went on, Justin became obsessed with Majury, and began asking her friends for photos of the TikToker as well as personal information, including her phone number.

Speaking to The New York Times, Majury spoke of how she 'had to unfollow all my local friends and Jersey friends' because they were leaking information to Justin.

'And everyone around me was like, ‘Oh you’re going Hollywood on all of us, you don’t want to talk to us anymore'. And I’m like, ‘You’re selling my stuff’,' she continued.

Justin then began asking Majury if she would sell him selfies. She consulted her parents, who agreed as the photos were already available online.

The TikToker explained that she never sold any photos of her body, just her face, which is what her online brand centres on.

Majury said, 'It was just pictures of my face, which is what I assume that he was paying for. My whole thing is my pretty smile — that’s my content.'

Justin reportedly paid $300 for two photos. However, he then began asking for 'stuff that a 14-year-old shouldn't be sending' like 'booty pictures' and pictures of her feet.

Majury blocked Justin on all of her accounts and her father messaged him demanding that Justin leave his daughter alone.

It was at that point that things escalated.


Justin asked one of her classmates if he had access to a gun and revealed his plan to assault Majury.

He reportedly said he thought he could 'just breach the door [to her home] with a shotgun'.

While Majury's father assured her that Justin was just 'one of these keyboard cowboys' and that he lived far away, things took a turn for the worse.

On July 10, Justin then broke into Majury's home and blew a hole through her bedroom door using a shotgun.

She ran through a connecting bathroom into her brother's room while her father ran up to help, and Majury's mother reportedly called 911.

Justin then ran to escape as Majury's father pursued him, and when he hit his knee and cut it open, Justin managed to flee.

However, while the family were waiting for the police, Justin came back.

Majury's father reportedly told Justin to drop his weapon, which he refused to do and proceeded to aim his shotgun. The father then shot and killed Justin.

As per the Independent, Majury said, 'All I remember was, I heard it, I felt it in my chest, and I looked up, and there was a hole in my door from the fragments.'

Following the incident, the Majury family were asked to move by their local Home Owner's Association, due to Ava's TikTok presence drawing attention.

The young content creator is also now being homeschooled, but remains active on TikTok.

Her mother, Kim, said that the decision to keep the account was 'best for out family'.

She then added, 'We know there are going to be two sides, and some people won’t understand.'
