A popular Florida rapper named J $tash is accused of killing his girlfriend at their LA home, then turning the gun on himself while his victim’s three young children watched on, MTO News has learned.
Police were called to the couple’s suburban Los Angeles home, responding to a domestic violence call at around 7a.m. on New Year’s Day. When officers arrived, they found the bodies of Jeanette Gallegos, 28, and J Stash, 28, whose legal name is Justin Joseph, inside the residence.
Here’s Jeanatte’s last IG Live video. Fans say that it appeared that she knew the end was near:
J $tash and Jeanette who was a recent graduate of California State University, were in a relationship for the past year when the suspected murder suicide took place.
Police said that the pair were having an argument before the rapper from Florida took his girlfriend into the master bedroom of their California home, before locking the door behind them.
Lieutenant Derrick Alfred of LA PD added that Jeanette’s three children, aged seven, nine, and 11, were in front of the room’s door and kept on knocking on it as they were worried about their mother’s safety. They then called their grandmother, who told them to dial 911.
‘It’s a very tragic situation,’ he said.
