BATON ROUGE -- The mother of a slain Southern University student led a rally at the Capitol Thursday pleading for justice for her daughter, LaShuntae Benton, and Annette January, who were killed in the shooting last month near LSU.
The two 19-year-old students were killed at The Cottages, an apartment complex, on April 10. BRPD spokesman Sgt. Don Coppola said the investigation is ongoing but declined to say whether investigators had suspects in the killing.
Theresa Tillman, Benton’s mother, said she was at the Capitol for “justice,” and to urge lawmakers to do something to find the killer or killers.
“They killed two college students trying to get an education for absolutely nothing,” Tillman said.
