A family from Charlotte, North Carolina is seeking answers surrounding the mysterious death of their daughter, Shanquella Robinson.
In a report from local news station WBTV, Bernard and Salamondra Robinson last saw their daughter on October 28, the day she and some of her friends left to Cabo, Mexico for a vacation. Fast forward to almost a month later, and the parents still have no idea of what really led to their 25-year-old daughters death.
As the Robinsonâs shared with WBTV, they were told by Shanquellaâs friends that she died from alcohol poisoning after they got in touch with the parents that following Saturday after they arrived in Cabo.
âOn Saturday evening, they called and said she wasnât feeling well, and they were going to call a doctor,â Salamondra said. âAnd when they called, the doctor hadnât arrived yet, but they said she had alcohol poisoning.â
However, upon receiving an autopsy report after making calls to the FBI and Mexican authorities, they realized that what led to her death contrasted what her friendâs had told them.
âAfter they said it was alcohol poisoning, we received the autopsy report on Thursday and it said that her neck had been broken and she had a back spasm there was a crack, spinal cord was crack,â the parents said. âThat took it to a whole ânother level because that meant somebody had attacked her.â
Since Shanquella died in Mexico, national agencies became involved with the incident. However, in a statement to another news outlet, Queen City News, the U.S. State Department in Mexico refuted the claim that Robinson murdered, adding that there was no clear evidence of foul play according to police.
Since then, Shanquellaâs friends have returned to Charlotte. They left her body back in Cabo; the Robinsons recently retrieved their daughterâs body on Thursday. As news of Shanquellaâs death has made its way to social media, so have theories surrounding the incident. Some users believe that it was one of the friends who killed her, with a video being shared that allegedly shows her being beaten up by someone, while someone else records the altercation. According to a report from Rolling Stone, the video was first published by a North Carolina blog and that it âidentified several friends they claimed were on the Cabo trip with Shanquella at the time of her death.â The report continues on, mentioning how the blog identified a man present in the group named Namer Wiggins. Although Wiggins did confirm he was a part of the Cabo trip, he denied the blogâs claim that he was responsible for Shanquelleâs death, saying that he arrived in Cabo after the group asked for medical attention, according to an Instagram story post Wiggins shared Tuesday night.
