Family members of a Black mother of six are demanding answers after she allegedly fell to her death from a backyard deck while attending an overnight ‘football moms” party, according to 11 Alive.

Even the sleuths of social media are trying to make sense of what happened to 40-year-old Tamla Horsford, who many believe was killed at an adult sleepover in north Forsyth, Ga., on Nov. 4, 2018. She was reportedly the only Black among 7 white women.

With major news outlets opting to remain silent about this troubling case, Twitter users are bringing attention to her death via the hashtag #TamlaHorsford. So much speculation has unfolded across social media that the party host issued a statement defending herself against a flood of accusations.

and they don't have to worry about how to get home without killing themselves or someone else. If people are going to drink at a party, it's a good thing if they can crash there, usually.

Apologies if that was insensitive, but the weirdness of this story is a headscratcher.
