I Am Kenneka Jenkins

A Poem

As you read about me my story should be really disturbing cause I was only 19 when they took advantage of me and killed me

See I should have listened when momma warned me everyone can't be trusted cause now I'm just as another tragic story and my viewers are left disgusted

Wait let's go back to how this all went down

I went to a hotel party with friends who I thought I could trust

While that whole time I was set up cause while I was drinking partying and thinking I was having a good time

I didn't even know that while I was doing this it would my very last time

Cause my best friend and friends let some guys try to seduce me and one of those bastards eventually took advantage of me

To make matters worse someone put something into my drink so I was wondering around and I could barely think

And my so called best friend and friends left me when they should have stayed around

So when I was looking for my friends and a way to get out of that hotel party no one was around

Thought I could trust my best friend the whole time she was plotting

Just to make 200 dollars in exchange for my life she just sat back and did nothing

Not one time did I hear my friends pleading instead they just went with the plan as my life came to abrupt end and they followed the plan's procedure

Now I'm known as the girl whose body was found inside of the freezer

It wouldn't take a genius to comprehend that I was lured and set up

People are asking who really killed me but nobody wants to confess or let up

And those who were involved with killing me and covering up my murder are still walking around free

Cornell Mitchell was there the day I was killed yet he sits on social media bragging and boasting about how I wouldn't have gotten raped and killed if I would have stayed in my place

Let me be the first to say you, and anyone who condones what happened to me is a disgrace

No mercy shall be spared to those who were involved with killing me and covering up my case

Just know I was not alone when I wandered off there were three random men who are in the video if you pay close attention to the video footage

One of them grabbed my arm

I did not walk into the freezer and close the door someone put me inside of there...

He later erases his social media posts and says he's innocent but why write something so disturbing like that if you weren't involved with my death??

Cornell how would you like it if someone raped your daughter or took advantage of her and then stuffed her body inside of a freezer???

See my life was just as precious as you and your wife's life

It was just as precious my best friend's life, and friend's lives as well

No best friend or friend would do this to someone they care about

They wouldn't let someone they love and care about get taken advance of like this

My life was too precious and valuable

It was worth more than some 200.00

I should have never been placed and discovered inside of a freezer

I should still be here but I'm not cause in today's society the ones you think you can trust are the first ones who hurt you and deceive you

Be careful who you trust and call your friend cause even the ones close to you are plotting to disrupt it and cause it to end...

I wish I was still here but I'm not

I trusted the wrong type of people

If only I would have paid attention and did more thinking

I would have seen that that I was purposely being setup but I didn't know and it's too late cause now I'm another name whose hashtag says

I am Kenneka Jenkins...
