Heather Waldron, Serenity’s mother, said the 17-year-old was involved in an incident with her ex-boyfriend about a month ago, causing the school to issue a no-contact order.

Waldron told the outlet that she tried encouraging her daughter to get a restraining order, which didn’t end up happening.

“The biggest thing is to watch for red flags. Don’t ignore or think that this wouldn’t happen to your daughter because I would never in a million years thought this would happen to my daughter,” said Waldron. “She was just very vivacious. She was just larger than life. And to know that she is gone is just unreal.”
