In Loving Memory of Rachel Hoffman

[tranurse]

@chillibeans22 i lived in tally when this happened. the cops screwed up, no questions about it. but she did get caught selling pot, which is illegal, even if most of us think it's stupid. she wasn't an innocent little girl. it's a shame she died, terribly sad. but, if she hadn't have been dealing, she wouldn't have been in that position.

[ginerz07]

Fucking snitch.

[kingaconthatbeam]

JUDE snitch

[chickenmuffins14]

It's ridiculous that WMG was selfish enough to take the audio out of a remembrance video. Fuck you WMG.

[TatianaSword]

I have her head in my freezer

[chickenmuffins14]

@TatianaSword

How can you be so disrespectful?

[marijuano260]

RIP Rachel Hoffman

[marijuano260]

the cops wrong doesnt make her being an informant a right. people dont get CONNED into bein informants. use right to be silent. its better than getting caught lying to cops.i dont judge coke dealers like they dont judge me for pot.

[JasonTillo]

From what people are saying sounds like she got what was coming to for.

[levantos]

Glad this ugly bitch didn't reproduce before she died. Just saying. Looking on the brighter side of life ftw.

[tabreshawubsu777]

who's that?

[potheed29]

Don't feel bad for her, she would have ratted on anyone to save herself. How many people did she screw over before these guys pulled her card? Fuck that bitch!

[dutchmafia999]

so sad

[trybal007]

That's terrible! A life loving young women being pushed into a serious drug and weapons deal by the cops ends up ending being murdered after the cops fucked up.

Shame on those pigs. They should be hung.

[SlayerTooth]

Bang Bang i blew your brains and shitttt out of you. HAAHAHAHAHA you are dead and no longer living

[yay78900]

If you think about it, if everyone got caught every time they broke the law, just about everyone on the planet would be in jail for life. That is how dumb the laws are

[steriodnation]

they should send the cops away for murder. Selling a little pot does not make you scarface. You use an experienced scumbag---not a little kid.

[vastedda99]

The First Anniversary of Rachel Hoffman's ragic death is coming up in a few days.Let's keep Rachel's memory alive! Spread this story around the net.The Tallahassee PD is hoping that time and media inattention will sweep this under the rug. A Talllahasee cop who was fired over his part in Rachel's death is suing to get his job back. Lack of Media attention might prove beneficial to these incompentents.Keep the pressure on! R.I.P.,Rachel Hoffmann.

[vastedda99]

hey matt 3794-you dumb scumbag redneck-when are you stop sucking TPD cock?Your fascist pig buddies CONNED a 23yr old girl into meeting 2 gun-toting Coke dealers ,bringing 13K CASH-they might as well have sent her to set up the Corleone Family.Don't the FASCIST FAGGOT PIGS  have the BALLS to do that?DO YOU? The only BITCH you should mention is YOUR WHORE MOTHER for putting a PIECE of SHIT like you ON this EARTH to BEGIN with.I hate Right-Wing Beer Guzzlers!DOUCHEBAG!

[orkasteez]

@vastedda99 i agree thats fucking retarded its only obvious she was screwed for no reason by a bunch of idiots

[anyonebutObama2012]

@vastedda99 what the fuck does this have to do with right wing people?? you fucking liberals are all the same, a bunch of crybaby assholes thta blame everything they dont like on the evil republicans, what a fucking tool you are

[whiterabbit1968]

I randomly wore a purple fur hat at sts9 atl this new years and hence met MANY friends of Rachel's, and heard the whole story. God bless all whom she touched. We have another angel with Jerry!

[Max3890]

the bitch played with fire and she got burnt one less bitch we have to worry about

[shauna813]

I know her dad. How could people do this? How could the cops be so carless? Well it to late now for apoligising she was so yung and had a good life infront of her how culd someone do this?

[KaptainChronic69]

Thats a damn good question. Fucking cops shouldve known damn better than to have an innocent, yes, INNOCENT, girl who just got out of college to go buy cocaine/drugs off a couple of gangsters like that. Its a fucking disgrace, I hope those damn pigs cant sleep at night after what theyve done!!!

[matt3794]

She screwed up the whole set up. It should have went down in the park but she ran off down a 'dead" end street. Plus, I hate potheads.

[KaptainChronic69]

so...u think that people that use marijuana deserve to die??? Besides, she wasnt a fucking cop, they had no business making her do such a risky job!!!

[matt3794]

No, she didn't deserve to die, but why emphasize how innocent she was? She wasn't that innocent, unless you believe marijuana should be legal. She enjoyed partaking in drug dealing instead of working.

[KaptainChronic69]

She had just graduated college, sometimes u have do shit to make ends meet, maybe what she did wasnt ethical in your eyes, but this clearly isnt an example of punishment fitting the crime. You know, contratry to popular belief, not everyone who uses/sells marijuana is a bad person, you can hardly compare it to a couple of gangsters selling guns & cocaine, which is who the cops set her up 2 bust. If u think so little of potheads surely u can agree that she shouldnt have been doing police work ?

[matt3794]

Actually, I don't always think so little of "potheads" - sometimes I'm in a bad mood.

The cops probably should have established better precautions, such as always confirm new location before proceeding.

No, she didn't deserve to be harmed in any way for her crimes, except by a court of law.

[KaptainChronic69]

Well, I appriciate that. Thats very big of u.

[listentoboston]

we elected a known cocaine user into presidential office....weird. i'm sure he got his slap on the wrist. however, my best friend takes the bullet.

[Miami797]

Sucks she's dead, but she snitched.

Before she turned up dead even a few of the hippies mentioned "if she snitched on my I'll kill her." Maybe they meant it metaphorically, but it was still said by one of her friends. Everyone knew when she went down and didn't turn up on the jail's webpage that she was snitching.

The same guy who told me he'd kill her was also the one who broke the news to me about her death, and to be honest, I wasn't sure if he was sad or relieved.

[MattyTheMole]

@Miami797 Yeah thats why I dont trust college girls. She is a definate snitch. A pretty white girl like her would get beat down and raped in prison by some black or mexican girls.

[celinishlove]

so what happened? when she was doing the cops dirty work? did the dudes kill her? i dont get it

[MSDOSS]

THAT NARK GOT WHAT SHE NEEDED!!!!!!

[rhslax39]

well the point is she shouldn't have been arrested for marijuana in the first place. thats why everybody is saying that marijuana prohibition killed this girl and i agree that it did.

[matt3794]

Fuck that there's laws and they are not meant to arbitrarily be broken or deemed "stupid" by a bunch on potheads. She died because she wanted a quick and easy way out which was really dangerous.

[spacesockmonkey]

Awesome video! My heart goes out to this family and Rachel will be missed!! Can anyone tell me the name of the song played in the slideshow? I would love to hear it and I'll think of her each time.

[delysiddaniels]

Cannabis Will be Legalized. And my first legal spliff will be dedicated to Rachel Hoffman! I wear my purple hat with a tear in my eye as I write this!

[bgurgus]

ran out of space in the last post but I wanted to express sincere condolences to this young ladie's family and friends...may the injustice that she suffered, that took her life, inspire us to work to change the system for the better...

[bgurgus]

by being in favor of a WAR on drugs, Americans that support this are, in essence, condoning and partaking in a war on themselves, the American citizen, by the American government. It is tragic how propaganda can sway a majority of people to the insanity of being in favor of having their own tax dollars used in a war against themselves! If a SWAT team kicks in your door because they got the wrong address and end up killing you, oh well...it's WAR and that's just a part of war...collateral damage.

[Cristjan]

ill smoke one for you - all cops are bastards (ACAB)

[allkesh]

Yeah. She died because of weed. That bag she got caught with would have never killed her.

[420bmxer]

COPS killed her because the police force is the biggest mafia out there they do what ever the fuck they want sence they got the gun and they get away with it cuz they can

[zeitgeisthero]

this is the saddest story i ever heard. if this doesnt enrage people to legalize weed i dont know what will. thanx big brother for protecting rachel from a flower !

[deathlaychur]

This is so fucked up.. RIP Rachel.. "All you need is love" -Lennon

[brian8793]

I'm normally not one to cry foul, especially against the police department, but this is BULLSHIT. This girl should have never been sent out to do this. No training whatsoever, all over a little bag of weed. Community service is all she should have got, and maybe a little drug counseling, but prison? This shit right here has to change, I feel so sorry for her family. I hope they get a nice little settlement from that Bonehead Police Department.

[sil80drifts]

sucks, but thats what happens for snitching

[byrdboy44892002]

seriously .....grow up ignorant ass...if only it was you

[jt01212]

congrats!

You win the POS of the day award.

[dabdoub420]

So u would have gone to jail for 4 YEARS?

people get that shit for involuntary manslaughter (killing someone accidentally) and all she had was 2 pills and a bag of weed, how many people were hurt by that?

[mymichele79]

The officers that represented themselves as the state attorney's office by saying they could dismiss charges if she performed this drug deal and coeresed her into a dangerous situation should be held accountable. If you have a badge, you have the right to do, say and conduct yourself as you please. No one will govern you.... it's the 'Good Ol' Boy' system and we all need to watch out. I hope Rachel's family sues the pants off TPD and wins. I'm rooting for them.

[VibnTribe]

Saturday was one month since Rachel passed. Keep your eyes open for a 60 minutes story on what went down.

Love the video Vince, well done.

-jason

[GLOBALRESISTANCE]

This story illustrates the necessity of all of us uniting to end the fascist drug war and the global police state Bush and his band of war criminals have created.

[abebopmana]

It was actually Reagan.

[Znsane]

The cops sent her to buy hard drugs and guns.

And who's the real criminals...it's the police.

[jadabingoadf]

So sad. The war on drugs (citizens of this country and our children) needs to stop.

[brian8793]

I disagree. I believe the war on hard drugs(exstacy, meth, coke) needs to continue. However, marijuana(under an ounce), especially for a first time offender, does not warrant jail time. How dare the cops send this sheep(with all due respect) into the lions den. This is a travesty right here....

[tanerofies]

Actually, we don't need a 'War' on drugs. It's a social/personal 'problem' not an enemy. What we need is legaliszation and education and support for those stupid enough to do drugs. It would be a heck of a lot more effective, immensely cheaper and consistent with a society that holds personal liberty in high esteem.

[Kandimann]

Finally, white folks finding out whats going on with the police. They couldn't care less about your lives when it comes to career advancement. They'll bust on false charges, lie in court, cover up mistakes, and promote discord with the hopes of giving the idea their is too much work in front of them and they're working hard.

[WordsOfKnowledge]

The pigs that sent her in there should be castrated

[GLOBALRESISTANCE]

Not castrated, but executed.

[rubbinUright]

What a joke! Send a tiny, white, 23 yr old college grad who was selling some pot to her friends to buy a gun, coke and a shitload of X from two career criminals. Yeah, that makes a lot of f#$king sense! So sick that we are willing to sell booze in any restaurant, pool hall, sports event and dive bar on every street corner in America and yet pot remains a crime. Its time to get real and legalize pot already. Collect needed tax money, and keep the jails open for the real criminals. RIP Racheal

[jadabingoadf]

I'm so saddened by this story.

When will we realize that the war on drugs is a war on people? Crimes for theft and violence, treatment for the rest.

We need to think our priorities. A gun? The police should be ashamed

[jbo2989]

this is truly an amazing video, i only knew rachel when i was little but she still kept that beauty and light alive through the years, my love goes to Irv Margie and everyone who was lucky enough to meet her

[nolesfan813]

miss u buddy.

[Collie620]

This is a deeply touching and moving video! My heart is breaking for her family's tragic loss, and the loss of your friend. She was a beautiful girl with a heart of gold. I love you!!

[JJaspan]

unbelievable. I feel horrible for the family. I hope that the media covers this case critically and opens up some peoples eyes. She was caught with 25 grams of harmless pot and in turn sent by a police agency to buy a handgun and excess quantities of cocaine. Those responsible for this should be put to justice.

[byrdboy44892002]

what those cops did was pathetic, wrong, and showed just how cowardly the police force in this country really is... i didnt know rachael but i am deeply affected by this im so sorry for the loss to her family and friends.
