Jobeth Olson of West Mifflin was a freshman at Pitt when she was swept off her feet by James Nalls, who convinced her he was a Navy SEAL.

The couple had a child together.

Jobeth's mother, Amy, said Nalls pretended to be a war hero and Jobeth respected that because the Olsons have a relative who was a Navy SEAL and lost his leg in combat.

Jobeth's sister, Mary Therese, said Nalls claimed to have been shot, but they found out later that a scar on his shoulder was actually from a football injury. Jobeth found out Nalls was never a Navy SEAL. He was a Navy cook.

Amy Olson said, "She was angry and I think that was the straw that broke the camel's back that then turned this into a tumultuous relationship."

Court documents show Jobeth took out a Protection from Abuse order against Nalls when he was arrested for striking her and pushing her off a porch when she was pregnant.

Her sister thinks Jobeth was going to leave Nalls once and for all when she met him at a local restaurant in April of 2007. It was in the parking lot that Nalls shot Jobeth in the back of the head.

She died and Nalls was convicted of third-degree murder.

He is serving 20 to 40 years in a state prison, but Jobeth's family would also like to see him prosecuted by the federal government for impersonating a Navy SEAL.

Earlier this month, Target 11 showed how federal prosecutors are cracking down on military impostors.
