A woman who was shot dead in Essex had reported to police she was being pestered and harassed weeks before her death, the police watchdog has found.
Christine Chambers, 38, and daughter Shania, two, were found dead at their home in Braintree on Monday.
A 50-year-old man, being treated for gunshot wounds, remains under armed guard in hospital, Essex Police said.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is investigating the handling of Ms Chambers' complaints.
The father of a 10-year-old daughter who escaped from the house and raised the alarm, Ian Flitt, said police should have made an arrest weeks before the shooting.
He said his daughter had been terrified by her ordeal.
