Still no word on the color or race of the killer(s)? Clearly this witness had to have seen them.

Shes making the rounds on alot of shows. I dont no about you but if my love was shot to death in my arms dont think i could get a word out with out tears. Havent seen any come from her dosent even get choked up a little bit. I find that odd

And to the young man who did this.
This is wrong over a Cadillac converter You took a life come on it's going to haunt you for the rest of your days Go turn yourself in and do the right thing now You've done no wrong thing over a senseless nothing and it's wrong and that's what sinful. I pray for this family and I pray for the the guys that were involved in this shooting I pray y'all turn yourself in and stop it and never do this This is ridiculous. 🙏😇
