The family of a woman killed on a Mexico vacation will sue six of her travel companions for hindering an investigation into her death.
Shanquella Robinson, 25-year-old, who ran her own hair braiding business in Charlotte, North Carolina, had traveled to Mexico with six friends on October 28, 2022, for a short vacation. Her severely injured body was found the next day.
"The lawsuit will be against the six travel mates including the three who lied by omission by failing to disclose that someone had been beating Shanquella prior to her death," family lawyer, Sue-Ann Robinson, told Newsweek.
Sue-Ann Robinson confirmed that the law firm she works for "will be filing a civil lawsuit on behalf of the family."
In November 2022, Mexican police released an investigative report that showed that Robinson may have been alive for several hours and received care from a doctor before authorities arrived and pronounced her dead. The doctor told authorities that Robinson's friends had insisted she be taken care of in the house instead of going to the hospital.
Sue-Ann Robinson has already traveled to Mexico and was in direct contact with Mexican authorities, who shared some of their investigative files. She has not said to Newsweek when she intended to launch the civil action against the six.
Were these "real" friends or just aquaintances she traveled with? Do we know WHY she was beaten up? I've never seen these questions addressed. Do you know, Roselvr? Anyone else have any other information as to why this tragedy happened?

They supposedly were her real friends. She was especially close to one male, I believe he was the one who told her to fight back, she said no.
I have never seen the why it happened anywhere. I was hoping we'd hear that when they all got deposed from her parents suing them.
I google every few months to see if there is anything new. I hope that the next time I google that her parents will have taken the "friends" to court.
I'm not going to hold my breath that Mexico will arrest the one who beat her.
Her friends know which one of them beat her.
Eventually, it will come out, might take 5 years but someone will talk.
Someone in the group beat her (probably accidentally) to death and it was almost certainly over either money or a man.
It's disappointing that news outlets have to cast a shadow on society that somehow they're not focusing on her case when the real culprit is her friends that know and are not talking.

If I remember correctly they were friends she went to college with. I don’t know if that encompassed all of them though.
I can’t believe it’s on video and still no one arrested.

Well we would have to arrest them first and then extradite to Mexico. They can’t come here and arrest them.
