MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA - Mariah Samuels, 34, was shot and killed on Sunday in Minneapolis. Her family said she died just minutes after posting about the domestic violence she faced.
"Nothing bad I could ever say about her," said Konnie Willis, Samuels' friend. "I don't think nobody has bad things to say about her."
One day after she was shot and killed, those closest to Samuels created a memorial in her honor. She was a mother of two boys and a dog groomer who enjoyed spending time with family and friends.
"She loves animals, she love her sons. She was sweet, she was outgoing, she was free-spirited," said Salina Owens, Samuels' sister. "We loved each other. She's my everything."
Just before 8 a.m. on Sunday, Minneapolis police found her shot just feet from her front door on North 14th and Russell avenues in the Willard-Hay neighborhood.
