This design illustrates the story of Latasha Armstead. Her young life is about how sex, love and death can become FUBAR.



Latasha ARMSTEAD had been gang raped at the age of 12 by members of a local street gang. She had been afraid to go to school since the 5th grade because of violence, and stopped completely in the sixth grade. Her mother was absent and addicted to drugs. The man she believed to be her father was in prison for killing her half-brother.



Charlotte Brown, the victim. She had been a hard-working middle aged woman whose job was the care of elderly and infirm people in their homes -- a visiting nurse with a

grown family of her own.



on the morning of March 10, 1997 Latasha Armstead, then age 13, haNd "slashed" the struggling Ms. Brown with a kitchen knife on the throat and wrist while Her 17 year old boyfriend strangled Ms. Brown from behind with a telephone cord.

Oh my God!

yep... pretty sad. : (

I'm not seeing any connection between the illustration and your explanation, sorry.

No worries. The small hand is Latasha, and the large hand is Ms Brown. Latasha’s boyfriend is the grey hand in the middle choking Ms Brown.

yeah I like the idea, but without your explanation I would have no idea what is going on

I thought it was the story of Lorena Bobbitt. One swipe and a toss and men have cringed ever since.

lol

it has to come with the story or else peope won't understand the illustration at all...
