“I always say the future is unwritten. You never know what will happen,” Kaylyn Pryor said after accepting her trophy in Chicago on Sept. 25. An aspiring model, she beat out 500 applicants in a local modeling competition.
Soon after, she signed with model agency Factor Women, and local media called her a rising star, reports the Chicago Tribune. Pryor, 20, hoped a job interview at a Victoria’s Secret weeks later would help her get noticed, but she never got to the interview. Minutes after leaving her grandmother’s house in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood on Monday, Pryor was hit by a bullet in an apparent drive-by shooting.
Tomorrow is promised to no one but this is especially poignant.
dammit! As soon as I saw Chicago was the location I knew this would end in tragedy.
Democrats, her death is laid at YOUR doorstep. Y’all are like the reverse of the Midas Touch. Everything you touch, everything you influence, turns to shit. Everything.
Fuck You. Y’all are despicable.
If I were a cop and I actually gave a shit, I’d find out who didn’t win that competition she won who was nearby and knew where she’d be. It would be just like a pavement ape to destroy someone’s dream like that.
Perhaps the black community needs to worry less about being pulled over for “driving while black” and start worrying about being killed by black drive-byes…
Oh who are we kidding here? We all know it was done by some angry old white Christian racist with an assault rifle who was upset over the death of the Teabag Party, and was incited to violence by the racist anti-woman rhetoric of Donald Trump!
oops, I forgot to throw in Republican or Right-Wing…
Sorry to say but she had it wrong. If she was 500th on the list with a repurposed radio shack clock then maybe someone would give a damn.
boner and turtles have blood on them as well! there has not been one positive thing to come out of the Rep majority AFAIK. Fire the whole damn lot of them
Terrible. I hate reading stories like this. That poor woman deserved better. I feel so sad for her mom. 🙁
She was standing on a street corner with at 15 year old male?
“It really demonstrates why we need to do something about gun violence here in Chicago”……
No, pal, the answer is working on putting your families back together.
Those damned Amish!
Evidently, she didn’t make the #BlackLivesMatter cut*…
*not killed by privileged whitey
Poor woman had a chance of getting out of that hell hole. Her 15 year old companion? Another statistic over on the Hey Jackass! website, tabulated as another “Shot in the junk” data point.
She couldn’t have been shot. Not in Chicago. They have strict laws against guns.
Or so I’ve been told…
