This is not a North Minneapolis story, but some information came into my hands in a random way and the info is valuable enough that it should become part of the public record.
Neressa Turner died in a shooting about 3 PM Sunday behind the St. Paul church, click here for a KARE 11 news story. Subsequently, I received the following unsolicited email. It should be noted that no confidentiality was asked or granted in regard to the email...

Just emailing you in regards to this young lady murder, I felt really bad about it at, as a matter of fact I found out that she sings, I wanted to see her video.
Well come to find out she didn't sing, she actually rap. Well I finally got a chance to view her video and WOW, Sometimes you can't judge a book by its cover.
This young lady seem to be apart of the "Shot Gun Crips" and she also talks about "Putting one to the dome".
I was very shocked while watching the video.
Here is the video
This email message is followed by a link to the video, which is on Facebook. I am not aware of a way to embed the video and the link may not work for you if you aren't on Facebook, but suffice to say it's Neressa Turner rapping in an informal setting.

Why somebody is going out of their way to wage this kind of information campaign via unsolicited email is unknown to me. Demetria (whoever she is) has an uncommon name, and if she's the same as the Demetria Raino that I looked up in MNCIS, well, she's no angel herself. The list below represents charges, not all of which may have resulted in convictions.

She's on supervised probation right now for that last one.
Make of all this what you will.
Now back to our regularly scheduled stories about North Minneapolis.
Stick with posting all the stuff about your own area - there's more to this story than meets the eye and you're out of your league (and 'hood) on this one.
ReplyDeleteThe only point I can see in your posting this is trying to defame yet another person. One who has nothing to do with you.
Defamatory would have to mean untrue. Kindly point to anything in the article you feel is untrue.
ReplyDeleteClearly, the crime being unsolved, there's more to the story than meets the eye. But whether you have so much as one fact that I and the other news media don't, well, I see no evidence you do. In fact, you sound like the regular trolls so you're probably not even in St. Paul and don't know anything about the victims other than what you learn here and in other media. How about you stick to submitting troll comments that don't get published about North Minneapolis and leave this one alone?
Nunu ( naressa) was my friend! An she had her flaws just like everyone else on this earth she still didnt DESERVE wat happened to her! Whoever this demetria bitch is needs to be slapped! My nunu could FLOW and she was a DAMNED good mother! She lost her life over a bitch bein petty! Respect my friend.. and at dude who posted this.. thank you ! For sharing her story! She knew people from NoMi too! She was an angel in disguise

ReplyDeleteWatched the video. It's best I just keep my mouth shut.

ReplyDeleteHey Johnny where do you get your info from? we all know you have a mole in MPD that provide you with all the info you post on people. you are just another Ron Edwards, his he your daddy?
ReplyDeleteyou should at least stick to minneapolis and the crime related to all of the fuckers who loiter on seventh and nicollet try investigating that since part of downtown is north miin
ReplyDeleteActually, you might want to stick with what you know ... wait, that might leave your blog BLANK... because not only am I in St Paul, but I have more insight to this investigation than you understand.
ReplyDeleteAnd please don't over-estimate yourself by lumping yourself in with media... unless it's Maury and Geraldo...
First off i agree post on ur own area nunu was my neice n weather or not she was a crip or she was rapping about wat ever, yea mayb she wasnt innocent who is but she didnt deserve to lose her life from the coward that killed her or them coward ass niggas that set her up.
ReplyDeleteLove You NuNu *Aunty N
Isn't this the homicide victim that I read an article about which stated she knew/had a feeling someone was gonna try to kill her if she returned to MN?
ReplyDeleteTo the commenters, no one is saying anyone deserves to live their life, but isn't there a pattern we can all see in the gang lifestyle leads to an early, violent death story?
If people choose to associate with urban gangs, why is anyone surprised when they get killed?
This is a sad end to a promising life but when you hang around with scumbags, some times this is what happens.
ReplyDeleteMany of the facebook and other comments on several of the news sites suggest that she was involved with the crips in some way based on the slang used in the comments.
If you are one of her friends of family, I am sorry for this regrettable loss but lets not ignore the facts.
Clearly there are people who have information on this senseless killing.
It is a shame they don't have the balls to come forward.

R.I.P NUNU AKA NUNUTTA
All Of You Bitches Is Anonymous Though , Smh ! True Tragedy R.I.P <3
ReplyDeleteIt soo saddens me to hear people talk about a young lady that lost her life regardless of what her affiliation is she was someones daughter, mother, sister & cousin and NO ONE deserves to take a life they didnt bring into this world. I didnt know the young lady however I think of this story often due to the fact I have children her age. instead of condemming the family pray for them for they will be impacted with this grief for the rest of their lives and until any person can walk on water, split the red sea and feed a nation from a loaf of bread just know we cannot judge nor point fingers because GOD says no one sin is greater than the next.
ReplyDeleteAnd to the editor there is a such things as irresponsible journalism, and if you took a course in broadcast journalism.
yea u Anonymous too dummy
ReplyDeleteThank u too all the ppl showin my neice love ur right she didnt deserve to lose her life from no coward no matter wat she did in her life she lived better then alot of us for a young girl she kne wat she wanted in life n she got alot of ppl that loves her
ReplyDeleteMy prayers go out to Nunu and her family..I hope the ppl responsible for her demise are punished savagely..
ReplyDeleteI always go and check to see if any new information has surfaced regarding Naressa's murder, and I read blogs and all that. I also has watched the video and from what I see is just words being said that express the talent that she has. I know her personally and I know who's car she was in and I also know that someone has been in custody regarding this matter. I just want to say that it sadden's me that it is so much negativity sorrounding this issue, because no matter what a person does in their life noone deserves this. And I think that people should be more compassionate and respectful. And to assume that she deserves it because of her environment is just ludacris, I don't feel this way cause I know her I feel for the family and her little girl that has to grow up without her mother.
ReplyDeleteI AM VERY SADDEN BY THE COMMENTS ON HERE! NU NU MEANT SO MUCH TO THE PEOPLE IN HER LIFE, DNT GET IT TWISTED SHE MIGHT HAVE BANG BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE HER A BAD PERSON. IT NEVER MATTERS HOW MUCH GOOD A PERSON DOES IN THEIR LIFE ALL PEOPLE SEE IN THE END IS THE BAD. JUST KNOW THIS AS A SMALL CHILD SHE CRIED LIKE EVERY OTHER CHILD SHE SAID I LOVE YOU WITH THE THE SWEETEST LIL VOICE AND SHE GAVE THE BIGGEST HUGS! I MISS THOSE HUGS AND THAT SMILE SO MUCH BUT I BET HER BABY MISSES THEM MORE! I CANT GET BACK THE TIME I HAVE LOST WITH HER BUT I CAN REMEMBER ALL THE MOMENTS SHE MADE ME SMILE! THATS WHAT I REMEMBER! NOW I WILL SIT BACK AND WATCH THE MONSTERS THAT DID THIS TO HER PAY FOR IT!
ReplyDeleteEverybody has something to say abt Nunutta ! Let my Fuccn lil cousin Rest in peace it dnt matter wht she did because shes gone now & never coming bacc ! Yeah she was bangin but she was killed for supposively setting someone up but we found out it wasn't true Leshea Jones made up a story because she was mad at Nunu..so nunu lost her life over he say she say..! So for everybody saying stupid hoe shut the.fucc up & mind your business..yeah we all wondered why she came bacc from Atlanta but everything happens for a reason she usually had her gun because of threats but iguess it was just Nunu's time to go. Joseph Campbell & Cornelius bell jr have been arrested in Nunu's murder. Justice will be served ! R.I.p Nunu yu will always be a Legend (@ 20 yrs old) in mn love yu boo

BEING DOWN for OPP is stupid>>>> what's the purpose???? I see no $$$ behind it just someone DEAD.. I see tons of youngn down for a gang ain't its so SAD!!!! I thought my childhood days was rough I did a lot of stealing, robberys b/c my below Provity line life was.... Now I work 2 full jobs and never going back to that life I did that to SURVIVE not to be down for a GANG... Its so SAD she is gone nd ppl are pointing fingers we can't change the past but we can try to educate ppl on the true meaning of gang bang nd what can possible be an outcome I'm really tired of young ppl dying for affiliation of gang related.... U are guilty by ur surroundance??? My grandma said ppl don't snitch nd don't hang with gangs its a circle of DEATH!!
