A Milwaukee mother of 4 was shot and killed during a family dispute along a street corner, moments before pleading for her life. The incident was captured on video.

Milwaukee mom left to die on the street
‘He put it up to her, and she said, ‘Don’t shoot me’ and he shot her.” Analyssa Thompson, a friend of the victim told KEYT.
‘It was just so messed up. It was so messed up. And they just took off, and they just didn’t care.’
Hudson was declared dead at the scene.
Shortly after the gunfire, several people were seen jumping into a dark-colored sedan before speeding away.
Thompson claims the people arguing with Hudson were Hudson’s teenage brother, two sisters, and her mother. Thompson says the family argued on Facebook before they showed up at Hudson’s apartment just a few hundred feet away from the street corner where she was shot dead.
‘They started beating her with a bat and stabbing her, and she got up from that, and they were still scared, so they had to shoot her? It’s like, it’s just crazy,’ Thompson said. ‘And it’s just over nothing. Like, it’s over regular, resolvable things.’
Unsubstantiated claims made on Facebook, told of the murder weapon belonging to the victim’s own mother.
