"Prosecutors in the United States will not bring charges in what was previously a federal investigation into the death of Shanquella Robinson, a woman from Charlotte, North Carolina, while in Mexico last October.

Officials with U.S. Attorneys' Offices in two districts in North Carolina announced the decision in a statement on Wednesday, issued shortly before the woman's family members were scheduled to speak about the probe and Robinson's killing at a televised news conference.

"The investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Ms. Robinson has been a priority for federal prosecutors and the FBI," read the statement issued by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the western district of North Carolina.

"As in every case under consideration for federal prosecution, the government must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that a federal crime was committed," it continued. "Based on the results of the autopsy and after a careful deliberation and review of the investigative materials by both U.S. Attorneys' Offices, federal prosecutors informed Ms. Robinson's family today that the available evidence does not support a federal prosecution."

The killing of Shanquella Robinson was being investigated as a femicide, an unfamiliar term for many in the United States as this gender-motivated crime has not been defined by U.S. legislation despite being a global issue.

Citing "a detailed and thorough investigation" and an autopsy conducted by the medical examiner's office in North Carolina's Mecklenburg County, officials said they found that "the available evidence does not support a federal prosecution."

Speaking on behalf of Robinson's family at Little Rock AME Zion Church in Charlotte on Wednesday afternoon, attorney Sue Ann Robinson said they were "disappointed but not deterred" by the outcome of the U.S. investigation and would continue to seek justice in the wake of the killing.

The attorney also shared that the decision by U.S. authorities not to press charges partly relied on results of the domestic autopsy, following an initial autopsy conducted in Mexico. The U.S. post mortem exam was conducted after Robinson's body had been embalmed and transported back to America, "which means that there was a delay, obviously," the attorney said, adding that it ruled Robinson's cause of death "undetermined."

Federal prosecutors and authorities at the Federal Bureau of Investigation opened a probe into the circumstances surrounding Robinson's death in November, about three weeks after it happened, the FBI confirmed in a statement to CBS News at the time. According to that statement, Robinson died "on or about" Oct. 29 in Cabo San Lucas. The previous week, authorities in Mexico had said that her death occurred in San Jose del Cabo, located about 20 miles northeast of Cabo San Lucas in the same Mexican state of Baja California Sur.

Mexican prosecutors opened an investigation into Robinson's death a few days earlier. By then, news of her killing had garnered considerable public and global attention owing to a viral cell phone video that showed Robinson being violently assaulted, apparently at the luxury villa where she was staying while on vacation. She had traveled from the U.S. to Mexico with a group of six friends, some of whom initially told Robinson's parents that she had died from alcohol poisoning. However, the death certificate later listed a spinal and neck injury as the cause.

The attorney for Robinson's family said on Wednesday that the U.S. autopsy did not identify a spinal cord injury, although she called it "disheartening" that U.S. authorities "allowed there to be such a delay in this case" and noted that delays can lead to "discrepancies." She told reporters that civil action is "certainly" a possibility for Robinson's family moving forward.

Authorities in Mexico said in November that they were investigating Robinson's death as a femicide, a crime that refers to the killing of a woman because of her gender. In a statement released at the time, prosecutors in Baja California Sur said they were seeking to extradite a woman from the U.S. back to Mexico in connection with the alleged murder."

I'm far from a legal expert but, I can't help but wonder if they really lack enough evidence to secure a conviction or are they planning to allow Mexico to extradite?

I can think of so many times where myself or someone else could have died doing some drunken foolishness.

I don't think they took her down their to kill her. I think some drunken stuff went wrong and then they handled in poorly.

But there are literally 1000s of fight videos on the internet that look like this and don't suggest anyone is trying to murder someone.

I've seen and been a part of many drunken fights. Mostly I've been in them with people I consider my friends.

All that to say the video alone doesn't move me as evidence of a conspiracy to bring that poor girl down to Mexico to murder her.

I think there is enough fish-iness around her death that it warrants and investigation and I am glad the FBI did investigate.

But if the FBI investigated and concluded that she died from an accident separate and apart from any fight she was engaged in, I would not have much difficultly believing it. I don't think the FBI would have any problem charging her friends if they felt the did something. They aren't out here trying to protect these other folks.


It's way easier to believe that she died from drunk people doing dumb drunk shit and her "friends" panicked and handled the aftermath poorly than to believe that there was this conspiracy to lead her down there and kill her. I think this is probably a story about overdrinking and it's still a tragedy without the conspiracy.

was that alleged? or were they just there and some shit popped off.

if she was getting beat as bad as it looked in that video, that could have definitely caused her death. not necessarily an immediate death, but one nonetheless.

cause anyone's death. We don't know what happened off-camera but come on.

The internet is running amok with stories of the other people luring her down to Mexico to kill her and that's what I am pushing back on.

am that people were down there fighting her daughter as the anonymous caller
suggested. Plus the autopsy by Mexico states that her daughter suffered a broken
neck and forehead contusions, and confirms no alcohol poisoning.

It wasn’t some petty fight or drunk accident. She was murdered and Mexico’s
autopsy proves that, and that is the autopsy that her family stands by, and want the
US to acknowledge it and honor it.

Plus her friends lied when they called her mother to tell her what occurred. They said
she had experienced alcohol poisoning, which made zero sense from the beginning.
So clearly they were covering up what actually happened to her. Plus her mother got
an anonymous call from one of the people who were down there that her daughter was assaulted.

And the US is a piece shit for not accepting Mexico’s autopsy, and are
claiming that their autopsy, which was the second autopsy, found no
evidence of murder. But the body had already been embalmed by then,
so of course they weren’t going to find anything…So it was a stupid autopsy.

Mexico has all the evidence and pictures to prove that her neck and spinal cord were
Injured. With that, the US can implement extraterritorial jurisdiction in regards to a citizen
committing a crime out of the US.

“Extraterritorial jurisdiction is the legal authority of the United States to prosecute criminal conduct that took place outside its borders.”

At the least this is massive case of manslaughter

that accidently ended with her death.

It's the difference between I punching someone and they falling and hitting their head on a corner and dying versus attacking someone with the goal of breaking their neck and killing them.

I think its more likely the first scenario.

Either way it goes, it is a crime of murder.

Plus you tack on a charge for trying to cover up the incident…That’s
obstruction of justice/ conspiring to cover up a murder.

That warrants at least 5-10 years of prison time

So it's not "either way it goes, it is a crime of murder."

It’s still a killing or killing someone, even it was unintentional.

Someone was killed…bottom line

It’s a crime of killing.

what you're proposing doesn't excuse the death and consequences should follow.

Y'all buy those labels, I was born supreme

I never said their shouldn't be consequences. The only thing I've consistently said I don't think the people she was with set out to murder her.

Maybe there is a case for manslaughter, I don't know the details enough to say that is the case. But Manslaugher is not murder. My point has been the video alone is not enough to convince me that there is a case for manslaughter or murder.

Again, I am glad that the FBI investigated but the fact that they aren't moving forward with a case isn't evidence that the FBI is covering up a muder.

I hope the FBI eventually issues a report of what they found and if it turns out that there was no other evidence of foul play DESPITE the video, I wouldn't be terribly surprised.

I don't know why folks have such a hard time understanding my point.

we have know idea how serious she was beat up.

I doubt they brought her down their to kill her but once the fighting started it ended with her dying from injuries.

It might be manslaughter. It might not. Depends on exactly what happened. but even if it is manslaughter, manslaughter isn't murder. All this to say I don't think there was this plot to murder her despite what the folks on the internet are saying.

Why are you all having a hard time following? And if you follow what I am saying what exactly do you disagree with?

"Everyone has a plan until you punch them in the face. Then they don't have a plan anymore." (c) Mike Tyson

"what's a leader if he isn't reluctant"

that's why I asked. it seems as if you were excusing that she was killed because it 'may' have been accidental.

I also don't believe there was a conspiracy. sometimes shit happens in the moment. manslaughter/murder is really semantics when it appears that someone killed someone else. I get there are differences between the two in a legal sense and sentencing is different. all that to say, to not pursue charges is a lot different than manslaughter.

Y'all buy those labels, I was born supreme

what I said than I typed. Read again what I said. I never excused anything.

And the difference between murder and manslaughter isn't semantics. It makes a huge difference in culpability and what type of jail time someone should face.

And again, I am not even sure there is enough that surfaced that suggests manslaughter occurred.

We don't know what ultimately caused this young girl's death. Which is my ultimate point. Because we don't know what caused her death, we also don't know if anyone should be charged.

I think watching the video and deciding that this young girl was murdered requires speculation and jumping to conclusions.

Or let me flip it and ask you, how did this young woman die, who is responsible for it and what should the others involved be charged with?

I said there's a difference in the legal sense.

none of us know what really happened and drawing our own conclusions.

I believe they killed her by beating her to death, but don't think it was planned before the trip. yeah, alcohol played a part, but I don't believe that's what killed her.

whomever was involved in the fight should be charged.

Y'all buy those labels, I was born supreme

"whomever was involved in the fight should be charged. "

You are saying you don't know what really happen but believed they killed her by beating her to death.

So you believe they should be charged not based on what you know, but what you believe?


You don't see the problem with that?

Do you know how many black people are sitting in jail now based on what some white folks didn't know but just believed?

we're both speculating. you stating your thoughts is not different than what I did. fortunately, neither of us is actually involved.

And if you are admitting you don't know the facts, you should also admit you don't know whether someone should be charged or not.

"the internet"?

cuz, i never heard that. it's always been presented as far as i know that she went there with these "friends", some drama popped off and she was beaten to an extent that it caused her death.

Murder is a premeditated intentional act.

Everyone is assuming at the very least some drama popped off and someone beat her with the intention of killing her.

My point is, and the FBI conclusion supports, maybe not even that happened.

"Everyone has a plan until you punch them in the face. Then they don't have a plan anymore." (c) Mike Tyson

"what's a leader if he isn't reluctant"

where even though it wasn’t premeditated, the assailant(s) sought to do HARM that led
to the death of the woman.

So you got Murder 2 (2nd degree) and Manslaughter on the table as possible charges….
based on the testimony of the mother, when she stated she received a phone call from
a person stating that they were INTENTIONALLY fighting her daughter, looking to do
harm.

If the US isn't going to do anything, they need to at least send 'em back to Mexico. Sounds like that's the best chance for her family to receive any kind of justice.

If there was ever a time to leverage their power it's right now. Me too, time's up, blm, black girl magic, and the rest of those groups need to get on it.

Shanquella Robinson needs justice produced on her behalf and now is the time for that to happen. For fuxk's sake miss us with that thoughts and prayers symbolic bullshit from politicians. Leverage your political power to produce justice now.
