An Ohio doctor who published a study on “violent and homicidal” adolescents was allegedly gunned down by her teen daughter’s boyfriend and his roommate in a planned hit against the mom and her husband.

Tamela Dutcher was allegedly shot in the face by Christian Evans and Dajameous Payne during an invasion inside her Delaware County, Ohio, home on Aug. 14, according to court records viewed by The Post.

Dutcher, 55, was sitting on the couch when Evans, 20, and Payne, 21, charged into the home and fired a single shot just after midnight, according to WBNS.

Dutcher’s husband rushed to his wife’s aid when the gunshot alerted him.

Evans and Payne shot at the defenseless husband but missed their shot before fleeing the residence, officials said.

First responders were called to the home and rushed Dutcher to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Officials claim Dutcher’s daughter, 18-year-old Bryanna Dutcher, set up the alleged hit on her parents after an argument with her mom over chores she was told to do earlier in the day.

The younger Dutcher was quietly seeing Evans because she didn’t want her alleged “very racist” parents to know she was dating a black man or else she would be kicked out of the house, according to a police affidavit obtained by Oxygen.

Tamela Dutcher co-authored an article titled “The violent and homicidal adolescent. Hearts darkened before time” where she hauntingly discovered that most young female killers target their relatives.

I knew before I even looked.

She’d be alive right now if, instead of trying to ‘understand’ teenage violence, she simply worked to extend their sentences for doing such.

I am all for shorter sentences . . . on death row.

So ‘gunned down’ instead of ‘murdered’.

Black on white murder.

Maybe one can deconstruct ( my shot at it), liberal white woman raging against God’s authority, “honor thy father and thy mother,” or more broadly authority in general, offended sense of entitlement that she is being asked something in return, turns and provokes someone who the liberal establishment has filled with “justifiable” rage “RACISM,” to do something abhorantly stupid and self-destructive of his own well-being and future.

My bet would be that one of them hooked her on meth and then he and his buddy gang banged her at will.

I think drug usage was definitely involved. Maybe getting inheritance was was the ultimate goal.

An Ohio teenager, 18 year old Bryanna Dutcher, has been charged with murder regarding the murder of her, Dr. Tamela Dutcher.

Dutcher, 55, was allegedly killed by her daughter's boyfriend and his roommate in a hit arranged by her own daughter.

According to sources, Tamela Dutcher previously co-wrote an academic paper titled “The violent and homicidal adolescent. Hearts darkened before time.”

Christian Evans, 20, and Dajameous Payne, 21, have been arrested for aggravated murder after allegedly entering the Dutcher home on Friday, shooting Tamela Dutcher in the face and shooting and missing the husband.

Law enforcement claim the daughter set up the hit on her parents after a fight about household chores.

Bryanna Dutcher was quietly dating Evans, because she said her parents would kick her out of the house if they knew she was dating him. Rightfully so.

18 years old. Could have left home, lived with the boyfriend. Never done another chore.

Made a lot more sense to kill parents, inherit house, move boyfriend in, hire a maid.

Stupid and selfish and entitled is a really bad combination.

[Mathews]

That’ll work too!

[ronniesgal]

ha!!! I cant figure that guy out.

[Yolanda]

Blind hatred by Breanna of her Mom and Dad. The actions of the daughter and her boyfriends, cold blooded killers is despicable. Time for trial and conviction of these depraved murdererers.

The daughter had pre-partum psychosis and no physician would help her. We should start a go fund me and all wear pink.

Me neither...
