DOJ and FBI won't pursue federal charges in Shanquella Robinson's death in Mexico.

The US Department of Justice has announced that it will not pursue federal charges in the death of Shanquella Robinson, a 25-year-old American woman who was found dead in Mexico last October while on vacation. The decision was made after a review of the available evidence and the results of the autopsy. Robinson's family's attorney claims there is a discrepancy between the autopsies done in the US and Mexico and hopes that justice can still be served in Mexico.

Federal authorities won't pursue charges in Shanquella Robinson's death.

The U.S. Attorney's Office has announced that there is not enough evidence to prosecute anyone in the Shanquella Robinson case, and any legal action over her death will come from Mexican authorities. Shanquella Robinson, 26, was killed while on vacation in Cabo, Mexico, with a group of people at the end of October 2022. The people she traveled with said she died of alcohol poisoning, but an autopsy performed in Mexico revealed that it was a severe spinal cord injury and atlas luxation. The U.S. autopsy performed after Shanquella was embalmed showed she did not have a spinal cord injury, which directly contradicts the findings of Mexico's autopsy report.

US prosecutors won't pursue charges in Shanquella Robinson's death investigation.

US federal prosecutors have informed the family of Shanquella Robinson that they will not pursue charges in her death last year in Mexico, citing insufficient evidence. Robinson, a Black American from North Carolina, died in October while staying in a luxury rental property in the Mexican state of Baja California Sur. The cause of death was listed as "severe spinal cord injury and atlas luxation." Video posted online appeared to show a physical altercation inside a room between Robinson and another person. Mexican prosecutors said last year they were investigating Robinson's death as femicide.

US authorities won't pursue charges in Shanquella Robinson's death due to lack of evidence.

U.S. authorities will not pursue charges in the death of Shanquella Robinson, a woman from Charlotte, North Carolina, who died while in Mexico last October. The killing was being investigated as a femicide, but officials with U.S. Attorneys' Offices in two districts in North Carolina announced that "the available evidence does not support a federal prosecution." Mexican prosecutors had opened an investigation into Robinson's death, and news of her killing had garnered considerable public and global attention owing to a viral cell phone video that showed Robinson being violently assaulted.

US prosecutors have announced that they will not file criminal charges in the death of Shanquella Robinson, a 25-year-old Charlotte native who died while on a trip with friends to Cabo, Mexico. Robinson's death was surrounded by questions, and a video emerged showing her involved in a fight where she was violently beaten. Mexican officials said Robinson died of a cracked spine and later brought charges against one of her friends. However, US prosecutors said there was not enough evidence of wrongdoing to issue criminal charges in this case.

Family of Shanquella Robinson seeks Biden's help in death investigation

The family of Shanquella Robinson, who died in Mexico last fall, has called on President Biden to extradite her friend, who is wanted by Mexican authorities in connection with her death. The Mexican government issued an arrest warrant for an unnamed American citizen who was a "direct aggressor" in a video taken of Robinson being brutally beaten before she was found dead. The family's attorneys claim that a witness identified the assailant in the video as Daejhanae Jackson, though authorities have not named her as a suspect. Robinson's death was attributed in part to atlas dislocation, and her family is still pleading for answers almost half a year later.
