Mexican authorities issue arrest warrant for friend of Shanquella Robinson
An arrest warrant has been issued in the death of Shanquella Robinson, a North Carolina woman killed while vacationing in Mexico.

An arrest warrant has been issued in the death of Shanquella Robinson, a North Carolina woman killed while vacationing in Mexico, according to a Mexican prosecutor.
Arrest warrant issued for Shanquella Robinson’s death
Daniel de la Rosa Anaya, a prosecutor for the state of Baja California Sur, told ABC News a friend of Robinson’s “who is the direct aggressor” is being sought by international authorities on charges of femicide.
“This case is fully clarified, we even have a court order, there is an arrest warrant issued for the crime of femicide to the detriment of the victim and against an alleged perpetrator, a friend of her who is the direct aggressor,” de la Rosa Anaya told ABC News. “Actually it wasn’t a quarrel, but instead a direct aggression.”
“We are carrying out all the pertinent procedures such as the Interpol alert and the request for extradition to the United States of America. It’s about two Americans, the victim and the culprit.”
Authorities have not revealed who they are working to arrest at this time.
ABC News told Robinson’s mom on Wednesday evening that an arrest warrant had been issued in the case.
“I feel so good, that’s a good feeling,” Sallamondra Robinson said. “That’s what we have been waiting for, for someone to finally be held accountable and arrested. I just can’t wait for justice to be served.”
Traveled to Mexico and pronounced dead one day later
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.
Sallamondra Robinson, Shanquella’s mother, told various news outlets that each friend from the trip had different stories and they initially told her that her daughter had died from alcohol poisoning.
As we previously reported, official autopsy reports contradicted their statements, listing the cause of death as “severe spinal cord injury and atlas luxation.”
As a result of the autopsy report, Mexican authorities opened an investigation for femicide.
The FBI also has opened up an investigation.
