Hempstead Woman Arrested For MurderBy Melissa Calderon

A simple dispute turned into murder on Nov. 17 when a Hempstead woman was arrested for stabbing and killing another woman she was arguing with, according to Nassau County police.

The suspect, 20 year-old Tanisha Floyd, while in front of her house at 207 Long Beach Rd., was involved in what police describe as an altercation with the victim, Sadenai Winston, at about 12:40 A.M. During the quarrel, Floyd reportedly took out a knife and stabbed 19 year-old Winston. Police then arrived at the scene and arrested Floyd while Winston was rushed to Mercy Medical Center in Rockville Center, where she was pronounced dead at 1:36 a.m.

Floyd was arraigned yesterday under a charge of second-degree murder. She is being held on $150,000 bond or $75,000 cash bail.

Its obvious that people don't hold life in high regard anymore. Did she think that she could rewind time and bring her back to life after violently releasing her frustrations? I bet Ms. Floyd has a ton to think about now. Two children now face growing up without mothers. And over what we have to ask. A boy? Was she jealous? I don't know. Whatever it was, the ending result was the death of my friend.

My friend Sha was such a good person. For as long as I've known her, I've never heard anything about her being involved in any altercations with anyone. The only thing she was worried about was getting "fresh."

She was pretty, smart, caring, and always smiling. I know this sounds like a hallmark card but that was the kind of person she really was. It's a damn shame that something so petty had to end the way it did.

Think before you react. In any situation. You never know how your actions could affect your life and lives of others forever.

R.I.P baby girl. You are missed and loved by many.
