‘Man, this story breaks my heart. ‘Imagine going on vacation to enjoy your life and walking right into a death sentence,’ one person wrote.
‘This is heartbreaking. They clearly had a problem with her. ‘And probably didn’t say anything because she was recording when she walked in,’ another said.
On October 28, Robinson was part of a group that travelled from Charlotte to Cabo and rented a villa to celebrate a friend’s birthday.
A day later, the 25-year-old was discovered dead in their suite.
Mexican authorities have since confirmed that Robinson’s death is being investigated as femicide, which is the regional term for the intentional killing of a woman.
Officials also revealed that the woman’s neck was broken and her spine was severed, both of which were discovered during an autopsy.
If they discover that the killing was not motivated by gender, they will reclassify it as a homicide.
This came after a video surfaced showing Shanquella being beaten while naked in her hotel room. The unknown assailant punches and kicks her repeatedly, while the man filming the video taunts her.
Sallamondra Robinson, Robinson’s mother, said her daughter’s friends initially called her and said she died of alcohol poisoning.
‘My heart just went into pieces,’ her mother said. ‘Shanquella was my heart,’ she said.
‘I got a call Saturday evening saying Shanquella wasn’t feeling well,’ she explained, adding that she quickly realised there was more to the story.
‘By the time we questioned each of them, each of them gave us a different statement,’ she explained to GMA on Friday.
‘I didn’t believe them because, before they even got back to Charlotte, someone had called and said that someone was fighting her over there,’ she added.
She added that Shanquella was with a person her mother “very well” knew, and that she had hoped he would watch out for Shanquella, but “that’s not what it was.”
Shanquella’s older sister Quilla Long claimed that she “fell to her knees” upon learning of the passing and that “the video is sickening.”
