I don't know know how credible WhoSay is, but their report said it was her ex boyfriend, and was 4 shots to the chest.

There is a Facebook post going around d from the Selena Gomez Camp who was nearby saying it was her ex boyfriend.

Her brother, who was also her manager, tackled the shooter and the shooter somehow shot himself during the struggle.

WTF? Why are you assuming he was mentally ill? It's coming out that it was probably domestic and the guy knew her and the family.

Besides, if no one has a history of mental illness, how do you reckon we stop someone that snaps?

This is what I am seeing all over social media. Idk if it was her ex-boyfriend or just an ex but it does seem like the gunman had a personal connection to her.

Is that a real thing? I have a Twitter account I never use? When a person dies somebody or Twitter closes it out with "the end?"

If so that IS sad.

Police chief said this morning no connection to Grimmie but that she was his target and he drove from another city hours away to specifically kill her.

Incredibly sad. Just 22 years old. And I can't imagine how her brother feels right now having been witness to it all.

Also pretty scary considering I've gone to meet and greets like that (in smaller venues) without a second thought to safety.

This is a handwritten note on the door of the killer's house




quote:

"Deepest sorrow for lost (sic) to the family, friends and fans of the very talented, loving Christina Grimmie. No other comments"






quote:

Police in Orlando, Florida, on Saturday answered one of the major questions in the slaying of Christina Grimmie, the 22-year-old singer who made her name on NBC's "The Voice."

The man who shot and killed Grimmie was Kevin James Loibl, 27, of St. Petersburg, Florida, police said.
But they didn't give any background on Loibl or offer a possible motive.


quote:

Mina said investigators were going through the man's computer, phone and other belongings to see whether they can find information about a motive. There's no evidence Grimmie and Loibl knew each other, police said.
Before naming the shooter, police said the suspect drove to Orlando, apparently to commit the crime, and "then had plans to travel back to where he came from."

Very Very sad to hear this

She was a really genuine and talented girl that absolutely loved what she did.

I remember her years ago when she was on YouTube doing covers and was struck by her talent. I was glad to hear she made a great career for herself and she truly worked hard.

The world needs a lot more people like her

Just republicans being republican...

You can delete this one too but when it's said about the favorite scapegoat of this forum (democrats/blacks) I wonder if we'll see the same thing...
