That Stormy December Knight when Chanel got Killed it was te Shock of my llfe, I never thought in a milion year, a family member that close in age to me would be Killed. She was only 21 then Today would have nade her 22nd Birthday. But She got no chance to see that.. Nor even really begin her 21st year of life.
Therefore I Dedicate this entry to her.
The Original Post I Made about her Murder is here And well Everytime I even think of it. it makes me really sad. when I think of her I think of Good things but ut all leads back to the pain i feel when I go to my grandmas house for holiday and gatherings and She's not there to party with us.
I also had a post Titled Shake The Devil Off That featured THIS video below
and Just Seeing that brings tears to my eyes .. because our love for her was as real as hers weres for us..
A day I never thought it have to see. The Burial of My Younger Cousing..
Listen to them Chants ... To You Non New Orleaneans It may sound Un Natural. But This is How we Throw down for the the life of those who have lost their lives In the N.O.
In That Video We're Dancing In The Spot where she was killed .. .. Basically .. Thats the way you Shake The Devil off in N.O..
Chanel had appeared in my dreams a few times, Silently yet she was there. twice as her younger self.
.. wow man.. just wow ..
Believe it or not .. they've never found her killers .. But in this day in age in N.O. you never know if that person is dead or alive.. and its a shame that anyone has to fall victim to the streets ..
I'll ssay something later on..

It's been a while since I've written about the victims, but you're not alone in remembering. I don't know how I latched onto Chanel, something about her story just spoke to me of the ones ignored by the big media and their fascination Big Names like Dinneral and Helen Hill.
I really need to write something again on this, but I'm trying to scratch up a list of the 2008 victims, and isn't that a sorry task.
