Y'all really think people out their killing people for organ transplants? (Tinfoil hats on)
Conspiracy theories about how Kenneka Jenkins died ran rampant after she was found dead in a hotel freezer on the outskirts of Chicago over the weekend. The teen attended a party at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in the Village of Rosemont, Illinois, but never returned. She was found in the walk-in freezer in a desolate part of the hotel nearly 24 hours after she went missing.
Since then, one of the main theories is that Jenkins was set up by her friends, Monifah Shelton and Irene Roberts, to be raped and killed. Police said there was not enough evidence to indicate Jenkins’ death was a homicide and did not name Shelton or Roberts as suspects.
Still, the conspiracy theories continued to swirl. The latest rumor was that Jenkins was a victim of an organ trafficking ring — that's why she would found in a freezer, they said. While some people found the accusation dubious, others were convinced. Some of their comments have been posted below:
The hotel didn't respond to rumors that they were involved in an organ trafficking ring.
Convinced as some netizens might be, it doesn’t mean the amateur sleuths are on to anything.
“There are literally dozens of conspiracy theories that have been offered and countless people who are attempting to play detective and solve the case as to what happened over there,” Gary Mack, a spokesman for the Village of Rosemont, told the New York Times in a Wednesday phone interview. “Our police officers are leaving no stone unturned as far as trying to put all the pieces together.”
Jenkins’ mother, Tereasa Martin, openly criticized police and said someone at the hotel killed her daughter.
“They think that she walked into a cooler, intoxicated, barely able to hold herself up,” she said about authorities, noting doors to walk-in freezers are heavy and hard to open. “I believe it was foul play involved.”

Martin begged for anyone who knew what happened to her daughter to speak up. “Please, please, please, I beg you, let me know something,” she said. “Help me.”
“Help me” is apparently what some netizens heard Jenkins whisper in a video Roberts posted to Shelton’s Facebook page the night of their friend’s death. As of Thursday, the clip amassed millions of views before it was ultimately removed from her page.
While social media users wanted justice for Jenkins, their amateur detective work was hindering the investigation. “It's unfortunate that some of that stuff's convoluting the investigation because all those leads have got to be followed up on,” Rosemont Mayor Bradley Stephens said Wednesday. “As I'm sure you've seen, there's a lot of different, conflicting speculation out there, so (police) are doing their best to come to a quick resolution, obviously. I think everybody wants to know what happened.”
Jenkins’ mother was shown the surveillance video of Jenkins, but police did not release it to the public. “We're trying to be as understanding as we can to the mom and to be as compassionate as we can,” Rosemont spokesman Gary Mack told the Chicago Tribune Wednesday. “Now that our detectives have had the chance to look at it, we're hopeful it will be helpful to her.”
Mack wouldn’t reveal the contents of the video. It’s unclear how authorities found Jenkins’ body and they would not reveal if there were any lacerations discovered.
The hotel has offered to pay for Jenkins' funeral, spokesman Glenn Harston for the Crowne Plaza told the Chicago Tribune Thursday. “Our hearts go out to Kenneka's mother, her family and friends,” Harston said. “We hope covering the funeral costs provides a small bit of relief for them.”
A cause of death was still pending.
This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
so about the organ theory - is she missing organs? is she an organ donor?
answers to those questions would really help to prove or disprove such a theory pretty quickly
which may be solely based on the freezer aspect of the story
The mom said when they finally let her see her daughter it was only from the head up and the rest of her body was covered.
It's just f'ed up how her "friends" let her roam around drunk out her mind like that. Your people especially with females are supposed to look out for each other. Can't trust everybody you talk to.
This is part of my argument. For what varies between 1-2 hours, she roamed around. Not one soul is seen. Not one person runs into her.
Taking the hotel completely out of it...as a detective that doesn't strike you as strange? That the friends didn't search, top to bottom for her?
This is my thing. If one of my boys just up and disappeared from a function and didn't drop a word with us beforehand we'd be searching top to bottom if we couldn't make contact via phone.
But all of your friends aren't really your friends, regardless of which theory is true... Her 'friends' were trash
Well whats with the questions ?
That doesn't answer those questions now does it?
Chill, dude. I was just saying that is where the theory came from. Use some deductive reasoning.
Didn't two of her friends work there?I think people speculated that her body was in the freezer to keep the organs fresh as the prepared to harvest them, not that they had actually been removed. Seems very "out there".
It is strange that an illegal black market body part and organ harvesting operation was raided less than 8 miles from this hotel. People are saying there is some kind of connection between that illegal opperation and the owner of the hotel. I have yet to see any evidence of that but i havent really looked. That would certainly lend creedence to the theory but without that connection it seems pretty farfetched.
Also people saying some people in the party were connected to management at the hotel. No specifics there either.
edshoecator said the freezer wasn’t working or was room temp

I guess we haven't seen the video of her walking into the freezer because there isn't one.
That activist should be ashamed of himself then.
He went on tv and said the hotel showed him the video of her walking into the freezer and even went into detail on how she closed 2 doors.
At this point, I don't know what to believe.
Her sister said the freezer was warm cause it wasn't in use due to the construction.
At some point the hotel said it was out of use as well , but then all the fake stories about her being frozen solid one minute...hot the next...
I don't know what's a reliable source anymore.
