Little Rock, Arkansas resident Stephanie Hernandez was hanging out at her new house with her boyfriend on Sunday. She posted some pictures to Snapchat that day: of a gun and its ammunition, and of boyfriend Rafael Gonzalez pointing the gun at the camera. In one of the snaps, the gun is close to Hernandez's head. In another, Hernandez casually posted the phrase "Strap Chat" over the pic—referencing the slang term that means you're carrying a gun. © Provided by Daily Dot Snapchat © Provided by Daily Dot Snapchat Hours later, Hernandez was dead. The 21-year-old mother of two young girls was discovered with a gunshot wound. According to the New York Daily News, police found the house "ransacked, with blood all over the floor." Gonzalez was arrested on Monday. According to Arkansas's KARK, the 20-year-old was charged with murdering his girlfriend, is being held without bond, and faces an initial hearing on Tuesday morning. According to KARK, Stephanie Hernandez's family is caring for her 3-year-old daughter and 8-month-old baby girl. Her uncle, Rey Hernandez, said that the Snapchat photos were a shock and brought concern to the family in the hours before her death. "They were disturbing to see him hold a gun. I guess they were loaded," Hernandez's uncle told KARK. "In her back...it is just mind-blowing. I don't understand how anybody can do that." Another relative told local station KATV that Hernandez had just moved in with the boyfriend and other roommates three weeks prior, and the relationship was known to be rocky and "off and on." Hernandez's friend Jaquinlan Davis was at the house Monday to gather Hernandez's belongings, and told KATV that he was so concerned about the new boyfriend he considered trying to get Hernandez to leave with him. “I knew his history and everything, and I knew he was a bad influence," Davis told KATV. "I wanted to tell her. I wanted her to come with me, actually, when I left." Illustration by Jason Reed http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world...her-head-hours-before-he-kills-her/ar-AAeUISJ
I don't get it. So it was an accident since they were fooling around with pics? Or something went down after these pictures and he killed her in anger?
And I thought the morons that robbed a bank and posted selfies of themselves with the money were dumb. One less idiot.
Rule #1 for taking selfies with gun to look cool: Always make sure gun is loaded and pointed at someone.
It takes an event to make the firing pin strike the bullet, usually that event is pulling the trigger. Whether purposefully or accidentally he shot her. The gun didnt just go off
I realize this is the internet in an age of declining empathy and you probably thought you were being amusing. Or perhaps trying to make some kind of Darwinian point. Your point was lost on me. It involved people I don't know, probably wouldn't associate with if I did, and they were being stupid. But it WAS tragic, someone is dead, and I don't find it amusing.
Blocker doesn't realize this is the internet in an age when it's really easy to recognize when someone is a shallow narcissistic windbag.
Indifference is also an option for you, but you are free to feel that when dummies play with guns and get themselves shot it is tragic. And make no mistake, she was an active and willing participant in playing with a LOADED GUN like my son plays with Legos. The only thing tragic about that level of stupidity is that such a level of stupidity actually exists.
I feel sorry for the kids, but the mother put them in a dangerous situation without much thought for their safety.
