Still awaiting charges, are we?

(The translation did not link, this would be a DIY I suppose.)

Apparently the Mexican government (could be a region/state, idk) is calling for justice in the case of a Mexican national who died in the US without a legal border crossing. Apparently accompanied by some acquaintances or business associates or friends?

imho very interesting!

Ms. Robinson entered Mexico at an airport? I presume that airline & immigration records are available to law enforcement in Mexico to identify her traveling companions? Hotel registrations?

Yet we await an arrest.

i agree we would like to see justice. but i feel this is MSM sensationalistic headlining.

Apparently this is a Mexican official who needs a a flood of letters asking about progress in the investigation of Shanquella Robinson's brutal murder, in my humble opinion of course:

Shanquella Robinson's family travels to Washington, D.C., calling for arrests or extradition

It's been four months and still no one has been arrested in the death of Shanquella Robinson. Lawyers for her family say the U.S. State Department must take action to bring closure to the case.

Sorry to see this case seemingly being ignored by the fbi whom I'm assuming would have jurisdiction over the case ?

Attorneys for family of Shanquella Robinson accuse FBI of 'not doing all that they could do' in death case

More than four months after the death of Shanquella Robinson, a 25-year-old Charlotte, N.C., woman who died under mysterious circumstances while on a trip to Mexico, lawyers for the family have accused the FBI of not doing enough to arrest a suspect, despite mounting evidence.

news.yahoo.com

“Our clients are very understanding of the level of complication in a transnational criminal case. But there's a protocol, so why isn't the protocol being used?”

The FBI has said its investigation is ongoing but did not respond to multiple requests for comment from Yahoo News.
Emphasis in red bolded mine.

Maybe a lack of proof about who delivered the final lethal blows ?
Add to that -- IMO -- the people who were with her are not about to talk ?
They know what happened to Shanquella !
M00.

How about charging everyone who left the USA in the group with the victim, everyone who entered Mexico in the group with the victim, everyone who checked into the lodging in the group with the victim, including the individual who apparently came later. I expect that US & Mexican authorities have access to that information?

Charge 'em all with obstruction of justice as a start.

Abandonment/desecration of a corpse, perhaps.

International flight to avoid prosecution, perhaps.

Just plain murder, perhaps. Femiccide as initially reported.

Someone will talk imho.

Found some links in next post.
10K (if that was the amount taken ?) is a nice, large sum for people willing to do harm to Shanquella !
Have to wonder if they'd planned to hurt/kill her before the trip ?
M00.

 

[Laughing]

From reading about this case, Shanquella may have been robbed as well ?
Someone may have accessed her credit cards iirc ?

Ah! Just another charge for everyone on the trip -- everyone who returned from the trip, of course, imho.

Ugh!!! So the first four paragraphs of that story contain so many factual errors that there really isn't even any point in reading further.
There is some speculation, and I think it deserves investigation, that her "friends" were plotting an attack all along. I have seen no evidence of this, but it should be investigated because (1) it makes some sense as to what happened, and (2) it would then be a US crime that gives US law enforcement primary jurisdiction.

NEW: Cabo authorities interviewed witnesses who saw Shanquella Robinson before she died and who helped the group get medical assistance.

Yeah, there's been no proof that any money was stolen from her. There's also no proof that the attack was premeditated. Though it does certainly look like at least manslaughter or second degree murder.

I think this should be charged as at least a second degree murder or whatever equivalent in Mexico. Maybe manslaughter, but let the defendant(s) explain why it should be less. But Mexico wasn't interested in charges at all initially, until it got enough media attention to embarrass them. But how much effort are they giving to get extradition and proceed? Mexico SHOULD care. They have enough horrible crime without having Americans realize they can now fly down there to commit their murders that they can't get away with here.
I am sure her family is just sick that no one seems to care that their daughter was brutally murdered. And they don't even know why. I think this is a case where you have to figure out the "why" to make any progress elsewhere. We have heard that it is DJ that Mexico has charged, but I don't think we know that for sure, and we have no idea of extradition efforts etc. Get her in custody, facing 20 years in a Mexican prison, and then maybe she will start to tell us what really happened. Or at least she will tell enough to get the others to start correcting her.

Robinson's family's lawyers have said that it is Jackson named in the warrant. From that article I just posted:

Lawyers for Robinson’s family, Sue-Ann Robinson and Benjamin Crump, say the arrest warrant issued for Daejhanae Jackson mentions femicide.

In the 18-page information packet sent March 13 to top U.S. government officials, Crump and Sue-Ann Robinson write: “As a result of the investigation a warrant was issued for (Daejhanae) Jackson by Mexican law enforcement, one of the six travel mates who fled to the United States after Shanquella was pronounced dead. Ms. Jackson was identified as the perpetrator of femicide against Shanquella Robinson, a homicide based on gender.”

 

[PrairieWind]

Thanks Smelly Squirrel: So the next question is: where is Daejhanae Jackson? I see now an article indicating that Mexico has asked for her extradition. I wonder if that has occurred. Where are DJ's friends? Has she disappeared? Where are the others from the Cabo 6?

I believe there are extradition steps that involve Interpol and none of that has happened. Interpol will list persons being sought for crimes across countries. I just have the opinion that this is a very long process despite the facts of the crime being so obvious.

I can't recall if anyone mentioned this but there was a producer of the show Survivor who took his wife and kids on vacation to Mexico. He killed his wife while there. There were people near their room that heard the commotion and he was questioned and released. His passport was taken and he was told not to leave Mexico. He left and Mexico issued a warrant for him. About 6 months later, he was arrested by the US for the Mexican warrant.

It was about 8 months later that the extradition hearing was held. Then another 8 months before he was actually sent to Mexico. Mexico convicted and sentenced him within a couple of months and he got 12 years but only served 7 1/2 years.

Bbm.
I thought Shanquella's own family has affirmed this ?
Money was missing... but how much of it was spent at the resort, etc. ?
Imo.

Eta : I do not understand in the slightest what the fight was about and why she was (imo) murdered ?
From everything I've read here thus far, Shanquella was kind to her friends and seemed to trust them ?
The video alone made me ill and I don't think her death was an accident.

justice for Shanquella is slow
