A young mother who was taking refuge in Oregon with her family in an attempt to escape domestic abuse was allegedly stabbed to death by the man she fled.

Upsetting details about the death of 24-year-old Neilyann Ysam, who was found stabbed to death in Portland, Oregon on July 19, are provided in newly released court documents obtained by local ABC affiliate KATU .

A press release from the Portland Police Bureau confirmed Ysam was in the home with her five children, all of whom were unharmed and removed safely.
