Sierra Dominique Brown
Age 16
Los Angeles, California
Sisters, mothers, up to the end
She often wore gold hoop earrings and a wide smile. She was a dance student at Bright Star Secondary Academy. “She always wanted the best for me (and) always made me do the right things,” a friend said.
That friendship ended on Nov. 17, 2018, when Sierra Dominique Brown, 16, and her sister Uniek Souvinette, 27, were discovered in an apartment in the Westchester neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.
Both had been shot dead. Both were mothers, with children aged 7, 5 and 10 months. The apartment had been set afire. Police arrested a 17-year-old boy and said the murders were “domestic violence-related.”
