Chicago 14 Year Old Girl Shoots And Kills Another 14 Year Old Girl

CHICAGO –Look what is happening to our children here in America!  We must pray over all the murders happening in Chicago. When a 14-year-old Chicago girl was arrested on charges that she shot and killed another 14-year-old Chicago girl, much of the attention centered on how the shooting stemmed from an argument over a boy that was playing out on Facebook.

But to hear police, prosecutors and the victim’s friends tell it, the slaying of Endia Martin was also a tragedy that could have been stopped by many people along the way – from a trusted uncle charged with bringing the teen a gun and watching as she opened fire, to an aunt who authorities say did not step in, to the victim herself, who did not heed classmates’ warnings that she risked facing a gun on that April afternoon.

The war of words ended with Martin joining the longest list of homicides in any city in the nation – offering a glimpse at life and death in some pockets of Chicago.
