Nighisti Semret

Semret Dept: Now, sadly, everybody knows where and how she died, according to The Star. The attack was frenzied and seemingly random, Semret s assailant shadowing her footsteps, striking suddenly from behind, repeatedly plunging the knife. Dropped it, picked it up again, fended off a couple of Good Samaritan wranglers who tried to seize him, and fled and proud and stoic, a private woman, Nighisti Semret didn t want people knowing where and how she lived. A makeshift flower memorial forlorn urban ritual for violent loss in modern times marks the spot where the 55-year-old refugee from Eritrea was brutally slain early Tuesday , a gloomy, wet morning.
