^^^^ You have made some valid general points and if this is true in this case my heart goes out even more to the family.
However to be fair to her sister, parents, and sorors there could be a couple of scenarios. They may have talked to her until they were blue in the face--if she didn't want to hear it she wasn't going to listen.
On the other hand, maybe she did listen and was trying to end the relationship.
ETA: This was in response to the original post.

I understand. I was one of those good girls who married such a type. This is what I tell all young ladies who will LISTEN. The key word is listen. I wasn't trying to listen.

I read the post before it was edited and I will say this..
We all make dumb decisions, we all have put ourselves in situations we KNOW we shouldn't have been in, we...well most of us have dated someone that our parents and friends warned us against...needless to say our dumb decisions does not mean that someone has to right to take a life.
I still feel very bad for this girl and her family. It is only by the grace of God that I am alive today. We don't know what was going on to make this girl hang out with this boy. We don't know what her home life was like, it is so easy to assume by looking at people on the outside that they have it all togehter. Truth be told the prettiest and most popular girl on campus can have the worst and jacked up life. Let's not get into what "could have, should have" happened and just remember the life of the loss and pray for her family!

I too read the post before it was edited.
Wether this young woman kept bad or good company, she was still a human being who did not deserve to have her life taken, and surely didn't deserve to have it taken in this manor. I think to suggest that her family and friends didn't try to stop her is very irresponsible on your part. Are you in her family?Are you one of her close friends? It doesn't even sound like you two were that tight, so how would you know what they tried to do. I understand some of things that you were trying to say, but I just don't think this was the appropriate place for that.

Rest in Peace Soror Sintia
Yesterday, sorors from several chapters came together to celebrate her life. Whether her choices were right or wrong, she was a beautiful woman. Please pray for her family and for the speedy arrest of anyone involved with this heinous crime.

My condolences to her friends and family. It's never easy to see someone so young taken from the people who care for them.

Out of respect for this forum I will not print out the article. But here is the link if anyone wants to read it. This saddens me more and more.
