*UPDATE: Here's the story.

Many San Pedro residents have contacted me in recent weeks for more information on the killing behind the Pacific Diner in January. People have been concerned about their safety.

Well, here's a little preview of a story I have coming out later on dailybreeze.com and the Friday print edition:

Police tell me that the victim, Ginie Samayoa, was involved in crime herself. Her alleged killers wanted her laptop computer and shot her dead for it.

The laptop contained credit card information for companies she had hacked into to commit identity theft. They wanted it for themselves.

Look for my story.

Larry,

Always be concerned about how you make other people view my Ginie. Yes, she did wrong but NOTHING can justify her not being alive any longer. I pray to join her soon because where she is today I long to be, away from the garbage that this world offers and missing her so.

I don't have to worry about her any longer, she is in a better place now. The three criminals should repent and give their lives to Jesus if they don't want to be driven away from His presence forever...

Exactly. But things they say to sell their newspaper wont change the love that so many of us feel for her. don't forget that she is already able to enjoy her place in heaven, so no worries, Ginie's mom. she is smiling that gorgeous smile, waiting patiently to reunite. So no rush, Ginie's mom. Hang in there and may God bless you. We love you Ginie
