Locked. No further comments permitted.Justice for KeyOrisha (murder in Virgin Islands)

Tags: LA, Current Events (All tags)

HX community,

KeyOrisha, a queen on this site who fought for women's safety and protection, was murdered Sunday morning in the Virgin Islands. Currently, there are no suspects; however, she was executed. As you know, when sex workers are murdered, authorities yawn. BUT not this time. When a black child went missing, KeyOrisha would create a flyer and circulate it on social media. When a sex worker was a victim of violence, KeyOrisha would ensure women were empowered and justice would be swift. She believed in sustainability, black empowerment, and justice for ALL. She was a queen.

Now, we need to make sure that we find who did this. I will not let her name disappear like so many have because this world doesn't care enough about women -- particularly if they "do this kind of work." She was in the VI building a black woman-owned business about to take off. THERE WILL BE JUSTICE FOR HER.

We will be setting up a project called Justice4Taurian that will not only pressure an often corrupt group of Island authorities but also ensure Justice for all Women who are victims...of who they are "deemed to be." Her work was powerful.

Please respond for Justice4Taurian. https://viconsortium.com/vi-crime/virgin-islands-rising-business-star-taurian-deveaux-named-as-st-thomas-homicide-victim-usvi-count-reaches-16

We are going to fuking fight.

This is terrible news. I had a great respect for her. We hung out several times and I even went to her farm up near Lancaster.


RIP Beautiful lady. Too soon!

She was an awesome gal and I read about this a few days ago and her father also posted on FB. Truly a tragedy for someone who was always so giving of herself and I think some of the posts says she was shot in the head. I hope her family can get her body back to the states.

OMG, this is awful! I always remember her as an intelligent, vocal advocate for marginalized people. What a tragedy. I hope the person/people responsible will be brought to justice & held responsible for stealing her life.

So incredibly sad. According to some of the news articles I read, her last words were that her boyfriend shot her.

She last logged into this site in January.

She was taken far too soon.

I'm not a human being although I've taken on the appearance. I am an open, wild honeysuckle flower. I've been granted a gift and I'll be here on Earth a very long time. I am the comforter. I'm on assignment and my will is not my own but the will of the one who sent me. If you want to see me see me now. By the grace of God I'm well taken care of by the universe.

If humanity doesn't pull itself together you are all in very big trouble. It's laughable that humanity still hasn't figured out that our fates are all intertwined.

Omg !! We hung out so many times and she even made sure to reach out whenever she was here


This is seriously insane my stomach sank reading this because she was a wonderful, beautiful and talented woman. She had no problem with standing up for what she believed in and I always adored her for that





I really hope justice is served!! She was such a amazing soul

Never met her, but from her posts I could tell she was a genuinely good person, the way she expressed herself denoted she was a beautiful soul. She had so many dreams about her business and helping people while at it. It is saddening to learn about this. Cruel world.

I met her a couple of times at socials. She was always helping some other lady. She was strong in her convictions and not afraid to speak them. I may not have always agreed with her, but I LOVED her passion and her lack of fear. She was genuine.

This news is truly heartbreaking.

the authorities (fucking VI. i am going to push so hard and make this an international story) do not think it is her bf, a friend of mine. there is surveillance footage of other nefarious figures outside her home. please be careful of jumping to conclusions; however, i will update you with new information because she would WANT ME TO. i am only inspired by the power of Taurian. i love to hear the stories of people who she also touched profoundly.

i will also update you when we launch the JUSTICE4Taurian project and the fund to ensure that her daughter is taken care of.

you are all correct; Taurian is a force of nature who fought for everyone on this site. please join me in fighting for her. she needs us.

As others I never meet her but we did converse about her projects up in Lancaster.

It is sad news that she is gone, condolences to her daughter and parents.

It really sucks when your children pass early, I really can't express it in words.

Nothing worse than getting that call.

This is the most devastating news I have heard in a LONG time. She was so precious and so amazing. I have never known anyone like her- she was so beautifully unique, and a legit soldier for mankind, especially Black women. I am onboard to do what it takes to find justice for this kind soul. May she find peace out there in the universe. ❤️
