    Taniya Jones, a Washington, DC sixteen-year old was shot and killed in an incident that police blamed in “negligent weapon handling.”  The specific circumstances of Taniya’s death have not been reported.

    Taniya was the eldest of three sisters and a rising high school junior who dreamed of becoming a pediatrician.  “She was a full-of-life, sweet person — always playing, joking, laughing, making you smile,” her mother said through tears. “They took a piece of me with her. I don’t know what I’m going to do or how I’m going to make it without her.”
