Family of Shanquella Robinson Seeks Answers Into Woman’s Death
On Oct. 28, 25-year-old Shanquella Robinson, left Charlotte, North Carolina to go on a trip with friends to Cabo, Mexico. A day later, she was dead.

Shanquella Robinson’s parents are demanding answers into the investigation of their daughter’s death, who died while vacationing with friends.
What happened to Shanquella Robinson?
On Oct. 28, Robinson, 25, left Charlotte, North Carolina to go on a trip with friends to Cabo, Mexico. A day later, she was dead.
In an interview with Charlotte’s local news station, WBTV 3, Salamondra Robinson said initially she was informed her daughter suffered from alcohol poisoning during her trip to Mexico.
“[I] spoke with her Friday evening. She was having dinner and I never spoke with her again,” her distraught mother said. “On Saturday evening, they called and said she wasn’t feeling well, and they were going to call a doctor. And when they called, the doctor hadn’t arrived yet, but they said she had alcohol poisoning,” she added. Shanquella’s group of friends reportedly left her body in their vacation rental and returned home to the states.
“After they said it was alcohol poisoning, we received the autopsy report on Thursday, and it said that her neck had been broken and she had a back spasm. There was a crack, [her] spinal cord was cracked,” the parents told WBTV. “That took it to a whole ‘nother level because that meant somebody had attacked her,” they continued.
New footage
Since the Robinson’s interview on (Nov. 15), a video surfaced online of what appears to be cellphone footage of Shanquella naked, being brutally beaten by one of her friends in a bedroom of their vacation rental in Mexico. At least two other people were present during the altercation with one heard telling her to “fight back.”
According to WBTV, the Robinson’s have been in contact with Charlotte’s FBI branch.
The United States State Department is also actively involved in the case.
