Dupo woman tells police she was shot in East St. Louis

“We can use some help from the public if someone saw or heard something”

--

A 26-year-old Dupo woman told police she was unsure exactly where she was when she was shot early Tuesday morning, but she knew it was somewhere in East St. Louis.

Detective Michale Floore, who is the lead investigator on the case, said police were called to Kenneth Hall Regional Hospital at 6 a.m. to investigate a shooting involving a woman from Dupo. They arrived to find the woman had been shot once in the chest, Floore said.

'She didn't know where she was in East St. Louis when she was shot,' Floore said. 'But she said she knows she was in East St. Louis.' Read more

Who knows why she was in East St. Louis. There is CRACK right here in DUPO, so why the fuck would she go there for it. East St. Louis is only a bad place if you get involved with bad people, and there are bad people every where, even here in the white towns.

What a shame that this woman was shot, reguardless what COLOR her skin was... I used to work in E.ST.Louis, I AM A WHITE WOMAN, but with BLACK God parents, I never in my life been prejudice nor do I raise my children to be... What difference does it honestly make why she was in E.ST.Louis?? Did she really deserve to be shot?? I get soo sick & tired of everyone's racist BULLSHIT... YEAH IN A F*CKIN' FAIRYTALE WORLD EVERYONE WILL GET ALONE REGUARDLESS OF OUR SKIN COLOR.... There are times I'm embarassed to be considered WHITE for the way my race acts but, then I can't understand why BLACKS act like everyone owes them something??? GET OFF YOUR DAMN PITY PARTY & GET OVER IT... Where I live now, there are many up-standing AFRICAN AMERICAN citizens who for the most part don't bitch & complain about the WHITE FOLKS... AND WE WONDER WHY THE WORLD IS WHY IT IS... DAMN SHAME EVERYONE CAN'T BE EQUAL....WITHOUT LOOKING AT SKIN COLOR... Maybe 1 day, just 1 day, things will change....

Thank you for your comment. Maybe you can educate some of the other whites who post here. I agree, the tragedy is that the woman was shot, in ESL or anywhere. Let's not assume that all ESL people are doing drugs, sex and crime. That's where the racist stereotypes come in. We know that comparatively speaking, ESL has more crime, it has more social ills and poverty also (things that breed crime). As an educated black person from ESL I resent the association of crime with race. Throughout my life I am aware of more white people who have committed crimes and using drugs than black people yet I won't lower myself to make a stereotypical criticism about whites based upon where they live or their race. Educate yourselves before you make these comments.
