IN the NEWS - Tik Tok Narco Queen and the Lesson of Proverbs 4

Enter not into the path of the wicked, 
and go not in the way of evil men. 
Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. 
For they eat the bread of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence
The way of the wicked is as darkness: 
they know not at what they stumble.
Proverbs 4:14,15,17,19


"News broke in late October 2023 that Sabrina Durán Montero, a "narco influencer" who had hundreds of thousands of followers on TikTok, had died. Sabrina, who was just 24 years old, died under pretty horrific circumstances, and reporting suggests that she earned her "narco" reputation. She attracted a lot of attention on TikTok because she was the Narco Queen.

Sabrina
was apparently shot in broad daylight in her car in Chile, and now, many want to better understand what happened to her, and why
she was killed. 
Durán, a mother-of-one, was on her way to a nail salon when she was stopped by three men in the Santiago town of Padre Hurtado. Chilling video recorded by a bystander showed Sabrina Durán, 24, lying face down in the middle of a street in Santiago on Tuesday morning after being shot by a masked assailant. 
In the footage Durán is already seen laying on the ground trying to get up when a gunman steps forward and fires multiple shots before using her vehicle to escape. The killers stole her vehicle following the hit, and it was found burnt about a half-hour away from the scene of the crime. Sabrina was rushed to a local hospital following the shooting with eight gunshot wounds, but doctors were unable to save her.

Sabrina
and two of her brothers were apparently arrested at the beginning of 2023 because they were suspected of supplying, distributing and trafficking cannabis, cocaine, MDMA, and magic mushrooms.

While she was incarcerated,
Sabrina apparently began a relationship with Antonella Marchant, the leader of the Los Marchant gang who was arrested in 2021 and is currently spending 15 years in prison.
She attempted to escape prison by jumping from the third floor with other inmates before they were all captured.

Sabrina
was apparently on parole at the time of her death. Sabrina
posted on TikTok under the handle @katrinagusman, and has more than 600,000 followers....Sabrina was a famed local drug trafficker who went by the alias “La Ina." Police believe that her killing may have been a move to settle scores by a rival drug gang. Local police chief Leonel Muñoz said that Sabrina had a criminal record, specifically for receiving stolen vehicles and drug trafficking, and had been released from serving a sentence approximately a month ago."
