“I didn’t know that was going to be the last time I talked to my baby,” said her mother, Sherina Jackson. “I could hear her over the phone crying and screaming then her best friend said she’s not breathing!”
“I lost my baby all over a bowling ball,” Jackson added. According to CBS46 Sherina described her daughter as light, positive, and so sweet.
“This is truly an atrocity. A young lady has lost her life over a bowling ball. We talk about conflict-resolution time and time again and this is an escalated dispute so we will work this case through the night and we will find the person responsible,” APD Homicide Commander Lt. Ralph Woolfolk said. “We know who you are so go ahead and turn yourself in.”
