June 3, 2015 (Santee) – Santee resident Zacharia Buob,39, a Navy Chief Petty Officer in special operations, was killed May 28th in a bizarre road rage incident.  Darla Jackson, 26, has been charged with murder for allegedly striking Buob intentionally with her vehicle and running over him on his motorcycle.

The two drivers had reportedly had a dispute on the road earlier, when Jackson was driving her black Nissan Altima northbound on I-5 near E Street in Chula Vista. According to the San Diego Police, she then followed him as he transitioned onto State Route 54 passing the National City Boulevard exit, where she ran him over.  He was transported to a hospital, where he died.

Now an NBC-7 news investigation has found that two ex-partners of Jackson’s reported that she made violent threats against them.  A restraining order filed against her by a former boyfriend

According to a domestic violence report and restraining order filed against Jackson by an ex-boyfriend, she has a history of abuse including allegedly trying to run over her ex with her car after they got into an argument in 2012.  He stated he pushed himself off her hood and jumped over a fence to escape.

He also claimed she called and texted him hundreds of times with threats that included trying to get him fired, hurting herself and telling police he had harmed her.

A second ex-boyfriend also filed a temporary restraining order against Jackson, claiming she left messages threating to hurt him or damage his property. In addition, she allegedly etched profanity into a car owned by her ex-boyfriend’s father and tried to break into the property.
