Tierra’s sister Rokeisha Calton spoke with KRIV about how she’s been coping with her sister’s untimely death. She claims she knew Tierra’s relationship with Shania was toxic, but she never expected it to end this way.

Rokeisha says the couple met a few years ago when their mother died, so their relationship started off on a traumatic note.

“When she met this particular person we’re talking about, she just got off track,” Calton told the outlet. “A devil. A person who doesn’t have a heart. A person who doesn’t care about life. A monster.”

Shania is currently being held on a $100,000 bond. Praying for Tierra’s family.
