Jesse with the flex… 'I don't pump my own gas' lol GO on Webber!
Murdered by the ubiquitous Mental Disorder known as Diversity.
Did you SERIOUSLY just say herein an "upside" ad that we should be surprised that you "know how to pump your own GAS?!" After I nearly puked from your obvious unrelatable elitism, I immediately unsubscribed and unfollowed and I hope others that you attempt to intellectually mock do the same.
EEELECTRIC CHAIRRR JUSTICE !!!!!!!!!!!!
Tragic!😢
I have discovered that USA Police don't take missing people reports seriously. Don't you think you should start investigating as soon as reports are done. Not treat every case as a run away.
Was he here legally?
Pathetic you show her photos a million times and refuse to post the perps photo even once… shame on you horrible excuse for journalists.
O! Streetwear Jesse Webber. Love the hat
Alleged ex-boyfriend. So…WHAT happens IF he’s CONVICTED of being her ex???? Does he then HAVE TO get her a PRESENT every CHRISTMAS…AND Valentine’s Day??? Oh, AND her BIRTHDAY?? WHAT about her DEATH DAY???
why dont you show the killers picture?
Fernando Perales Mejia, 17, stands accused of murder in the first degree and will be tried as an adult.
Women give chance to this people but won't give a chance to little bit unattractive Hardworker guy
Trinity was a very beautiful young lady. I feel bad for her and her family! I just can't comprehend all of the evil in this world! She had her whole life ahead of her and her evil ex-boyfriend took it away. What a creep!
Rest In Peace Trinity Bostic!

I would be curious to find out the history of the 17 yr old boy. I live in Middle TN, been following this case. We have a high level of gangs in the area.
This is my daughter I'm having to go for mental health I was never told she was missing until they found her dead this was handled so unfair of Amber alert was issued it might have bought my child time to get away we will never know now but as for her 5 siblings by me and her 3 from her dad we are all just trying to find out his reason we have the rights to know why he took are youngest on both sides away from her life and her future to be what ever she wanted to be as for the boy I know exactly what he looks like and really I'm thankful they are not showing this guy evil face I want his answer of why he took my babygirl life all I want right now other then justice for her Amen
I simply cannot comprehend how someone could take another's life, especially that of a young, beautiful, intelligent young lady with the world at her feet How insecure and and unstable that ex boyfriend must be. Scared of her embarrassing him. Of exposing what an insecure little creep he is to his peers. So sad. R.I.P. Trinity.
All these murders of beautiful young girls, so sad such a waste of a young persons lufe

DV among teens is on the increase in Australia. It looks like it may be in America too.
Usual suspect
Where’s Fernando Perales Mejia‘s mugshot?
If he’s being charged as an adult it’s public information where is his photo???
Fernando Perales Mejia…now I understand why the picture isn't being shown.
Paying tribute to the woke mob be hiding his picture.
@lawandCrime what do you need two guns for. He when arrested he had two guns.
Protect our women. Close the damn borders!
All other countries have borders, why not the US???
17 year olds shouldn't have guns . They don't have the maturity to handle them responsibly…
I've heard a lot of females say they're strong and independent and equal to men but I've never seen one prove it 💯
Show his picture cowards! If he’s charged as Adult then show his picture
She was so beautiful. Damn
