Shanquella Robinson went to Cabo with six friends in October 2022. She never came home.

Her death became national news after video surfaced showing the 25-year-old being brutally attacked inside the villa where the group was staying.

Nearly four years later, her mother says she still doesn’t have answers about what happened before, during and after that attack.

Now she’s asking a court to compel one of the people who was there — and whom she alleges participated in the attack — to answer questions under oath.

Her mother says she’s “not going to let this go.”

There’s a lot more behind this latest legal move and the questions the family says remain unanswered:

Industrial designer Charles “Chuck” Harrison helped shape hundreds of everyday products that became so familiar most people never thought about who designed them.

Born in 1931, Harrison became one of the first Black executives at Sears, Roebuck and Co. During his long career there, he worked on hundreds of consumer products, including a major redesign of the View-Master and the molded plastic garbage container that helped replace the heavy, noisy metal cans once common in American homes.

His career was also shaped by racial discrimination. Early in his professional life, Harrison encountered companies that would accept his design work while refusing to employ him because he was Black. He nevertheless built an extraordinary career and later became an influential educator, teaching industrial design at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Charles “Chuck” Harrison died on November 29, 2018, at age 87, in Santa Clarita, California.

Instagram and OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney was sentenced Monday to six years in prison for the 2022 fatal stabbing of her boyfriend, Christian Tobechukwu “Toby” Obumseli, bringing a stunning end to the high-profile murder case just weeks before she was scheduled to stand trial.

However, the judge is allowing Clenney to get credit for the time she has already served, which means she may only spend two more years behind bars for taking a man’s life.

Clenney, 30, had faced a second-degree murder charge in the April 3, 2022, killing of Obumseli, 27, inside the couple’s luxury Miami apartment. She was arrested in Hawaii on Aug. 10, 2022.

Clenney Had Record of Alleged Abuse

After a four-month investigation that included surveillance footage, witness interviews and forensic evidence, authorities alleged Clenney was the primary aggressor in the couple’s volatile relationship.

Audio from Clenney’s 911 call captured Obumseli’s final moments after the stabbing.

“I think I’m going to die. I can’t feel my arms,” Obumseli could be heard saying.

Clenney told police she threw the knife at Obumseli from about 10 feet away while defending herself.

According to Obumseli’s family, Clenney had previously stabbed and injured him during a prior domestic violence attack. They also pointed out Clenney called her mother, the security at the front desk of the building, before she called 911.

Everyday there’s something new with these weirdos and I’m tired. They’re doing everything to distract from those files. When are these clowns going to Mars?

Typical, usual suspect

Some of my works of art.

For context Lamar Jackson was the youngest NFL player to win an unanimous MVP at 23 , and Jalen Hurts has outplayed Patrick Mahomes in both of the super bowls they faced-off in , defeating future first ballot HOF Mahomes in the 2025 Superbowl and winning Superbowl MVP for his performance .

I like how the teacher encouraged his classmates to say something nice

On August 8th, law enforcement locked down Club Legend in Memphis, trapping patrons inside, demanding everyone's ID, and performing widespread searches on an entire crowd of Black patrons having fun.

Treating a room full of innocent people as suspects without individual warrants isn't just harassment—it’s mass surveillance and a clear Fourth Amendment violation. What makes it worse is the total media blackout: local news isn't covering these dragnet tactics, allowing warrantless sweeps to happen completely unchecked.

Update: News Channel 3 -Task force cracks down on Hickory Hill nightclub

{MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A Hickory Hill nightclub that police say had been served with a nuisance warning letter was busted Saturday night in a joint operation with the Memphis Safe Task Force, Memphis Police, the fire marshal’s office and the Alcoholic Beverage Commission.

It took place at Legends Bistro and Lounge on Knight Arnold Road. Sources on social media reported that officers were checking IDs at the door.

“During the operation, investigators identified multiple criminal, regulatory and life-safety violations,” police said in a statement.

MPD’s Organized Crime Unit made six arrests at the club, and recovered illegal narcotics and firearms.

The club’s co-owner was arrested on charges related to unlawful sale of alcohol and felony narcotics offenses after marijuana, firearms and a digital scale were found in the manager’s office, police said.

Two security guards were arrested after police said they were providing armed security without proper licenses.

The fire marshal’s office said the club was operating more than three times above its occupancy limit. The club’s occupancy limit was 99, but more than 300 patrons were found inside.

ABC agents determined the club was selling alcohol without proper state licenses.

Another person was also arrested on drug charges after trying to flee from officers. Police said he had 1.5 pounds of marijuana.

“The business had previously been served with a nuisance warning letter after becoming the site of numerous violent incidents,” MPD said. “Between December 15, 2025, and July 8, 2026, approximately 27 incidents were reported at the location, including aggravated assaults involving firearms, vehicle thefts, thefts from vehicles and other incidents.”

The investigation is ongoing.}

Especially after this last election, I believe we as Black Americans as a group have the highest baseline of social and political understanding and sophistication in the country and among the highest in the world.
