A 22-year-old Cobb County woman was charged with the shooting death of a Kennesaw student during a road rage incident that is slowly attracting national attention.
Kimberly Kilgore, 21, and Sparkles LaShayla Lindsey’s lives couldn’t be more different. The popular Kennesaw State University student loved country and western music, and she took pride in her vast collection of cowboy boots.
Lindsey emulated the thug life that was glorified by the rappers she idolized. According to published reports, Lindsey, of Austell, had a criminal record that most rappers would envy.
The two women’s lives intersected on a darkened stretch of Shiloh Road in Cobb County, GA, early Friday morning. A road rage incident involving 2 carloads of women ended with shots fired just inside the gates of Shiloh Green Apartments around 2 a.m.
Witnesses say the two drivers — Lindsey and Kilgore — got into a physical altercation in the parking lot of the apartment complex. At some point, Lindsey pulled a gun out of her waistband and fired a single shot, striking Kilgore in the head.
Kilgore was transported to WellStar Kennestone Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Lindsey and her friends fled the scene before police arrived.
Detectives secured an arrest warrant for Lindsey later that day and she was taken into custody without incident. Lindsey was charged with aggravated assault and murder.
Kilgore’s friends struggle to understand the senseless violence committed by a young woman who had at least 2 prior arrests for assault and battery.
Kilgore was scheduled to work Friday night at Johnny’s BBQ in Powder Springs. One of her co-workers was a passenger in Kilgore’s SUV that night.
“She works every Friday night and here it is Friday night and we’re walking around … just can’t even describe the feeling,” Manager Alisa Pannell told Channel 2 reporter Ashley Swann.
Cobb County residents vented their frustrations on social media and message boards. Most of the angry chatter centered around Kilgore and Lindsey’s skin color and the perceived media bias that suppresses race when a black kills a white.
Lindsey’s friends defended her on social media networks. “My old co-worker, Sparkles Lindsey, killed a girl over a road rage incident. While she was wrong, people need to watch how they drive,” tweeted Natasha Hall.
Lindsey is being held without bond in the Cobb County jail.
They're trying to build some kind of sympathy with the gay community and distract from the fact that she was black.
I believe that has been speculated upon in several of the posts so far.
Just as her color has nothing to do with it.
A would argue that it does have a bearing first obviously on the media coverage, and secondly as an identifier as a member of a violent and self centered culture where members have and exaggerated idea of what is due to them, but have no idea at all of what is due from them.
Obama: If I had a daughter, she would look like Sparkles. Uh, I mean, my daughter, uh, Sparkles would look like ..., Uh, can I get some help here? Uh, thanks”.
If you read my other responses...you will see I forgot to put my sarcasm tag on.
The only non-sarcastic point: they are animals.
OH well, you never know if somone is being sarcastic around here or not.
This is far enough OTP (outside the perimerer) to be atypical. This is not exactly a thugville area.
you wrote that it was all over the local news. do you mean the Cobb county paper? I havent read the AJC since the first year of Clinton’s 1st term, so if it was there I just missed it.
The media has got to start telling the truth. Black on white crime is a much bigger problem.
THANK YOU! That was my first thought before even finishing the article heading.
Black lesbians are often referred to as studs in the black community. They act no differently than the men, dress like them, saunter around like them, and have no issues about making moves on any female they like.
GA FReeper ping. Avoid road rage incidents, especially with anyone named Sparkles LaShayla.
If Obama had a daughter...oh wait, he’s got 2 of them. Going lesbo is one way not to get punished with a baby...
Is that her stage name?
An angry black person, oh what a meme! I am sick of black people claiming some right to be angry. Get over yourself. No one gives a flying finger how aggrieved you think you are. White racism, to the extent it exists at all, is no more than a 1% or 2% influence in your life.
The Jews have suffers centuries of discrimination and countless examples of real life extermination attempts. How many drive-bys involve Jewish shooters? How many cops get shot by Jews? What group on this earth has a greater right to be angry but contributes mightily to society instead but the Jews?
American blacks live a life most African blacks can only envy. Your anger is misdirected; point it at yourself.
you must have read that wrong....she can’t have had a gun with that record....we have laws against it. sarc
Thanks for identifying which picture is the murderer and which one is the victim. I would have puzzled over that all day.
coulda been named Shi’thead(shy theeed)
Yes, me too. That's why I said which was which. :-)
When I went to the articles site, I noticed all the ads were "black oriented." I checked other pages & found the same.
I did an internet search for "sandra rose blogger." I found a lot from and about this blogger and it was all black oriented - including pictures.
Seems like this blog article is a case of one protected minority group throwing another protected minority group to the dogs to throw the blame off blacks and onto lesbians.
It's the bone deep sense of entitlement instilled by the government in its ongoing war against achievement coupled with the constant barrage of BS from the black grievance industry coupled with the natural inclination of losers to blame someone else for their self induced problems that sets the stage for this sort of culture.
You are going to be waiting a long time My FRiend. Hell will freeze over first. as for the future of your arrestee, She has nothing to worry about for at least three reasons: 1. She happens to be Black and the victim is White. 2. It is reported that she is a lesbian[homosexual, I do not use the word “gay” when referring to homosexuals] 3. She is female. If all these fail , which is doubtful but sometimes accidents or miracles happen, she can stand up in court and shout: “I did it for Trayvon, Justice for Trayvon. In conclusion, you should be waiting for something more likely to happen to occur , such as the sun burning out.
