Just before the cowardly McKoy, 22, allegedly shot his daughter in the head and killed her, he posted a photo of the two together and wrote several social media missives explaining his motive.

“I told u I can’t live without u lol u thought I was joking now me n Mia out this b—-,” he wrote on his Facebook page.

The little girl’s mother, Kimphone “Kim” Phanthavongsa, 21 had an active restraining order against McKoy following domestic violence incident. McKoy was charged with assault, burglary, trespassing and harrassment, ABC7 Denver reported.

Mia's mother, Kimphone 'Kim' Phanthavongsa, 21, called police to alert them that her ex-boyfriend was inside her apartment with their child and had a handgun.

The Monday shooting was his only way out, he reasoned in his final Facebook post.

“Don’t judge me had no choice,” he wrote.

Phanthavongsa, 21, frantically phoned police to report McKoy was in her Stuart St. apartment with a gun. The two had a heated argument and she stormed out on Monday.

Cops did not make it in time. McKoy shot the girl in the head and then turned the gun on himself. The father’s condition was not released.

Little Mia’s relatives painted McKoy as a jealous and possessive brute.
