Here's another unfortunate case of life imitating art:
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Teen actress Tara Correa-McMullen, who portrayed a former gang member in the TV show "Judging Amy," was shot to death amid gang violence Oct. 21, according to police. She was 16.No one should die that young.
Authorities in Inglewood, a suburb south of Los Angeles, said the actress was shot several times as she stood outside an apartment complex. Two men with her were wounded.
Correa-McMullen's parents, Devora Correa and Thomas McMullen, wrote in the eulogy that was read at her funeral Friday that their daughter made friends with everyone, "whether they were a grip or a caterer."
No suspects have been identified in the shooting, which is believed to be gang-related, police said.
After filming her first movie, "Rebound," which was released this summer, Correa-McMullen won a recurring role on "Judging Amy" as a former gang member named Graciela.
Comments:
I first want to say Rest In Peace to Tara.My condolences go out to her whole family and friends.I'm very saddened and angry about what happened to her. There's no reason why this beautiful young girl deserved to get shot and killed. She had a lot of talent.She didn't live a life where she had this kind of a ending coming to her.When is this B.S. ever going to stop?!!
