Coming to her career background, she began with an internship at High Mountain Institute as a sustainability researcher in 2014. She then went to AGENCIA WOLKWAGENAGENCIA as a Lawsuit Policy Analyst. Few gigs here and then, and she joined Concordia University as a bilingual Project Coordinator, but that lasted only for two months. Currently, she is working at IBM as a business transformation consultant.

Victims Michael Shinners and Wesley Freeman – Incident Explained

Both Michael Shinners, 60, of Alpharetta, and Westley Freeman, 41, of Atlanta, died in the shooting that happened in Midtown today. While evacuating the scene, police got hold of Raissa and named her the major suspect in the case.

However, there is very little given out by the authorities as they say that the inquiry is still going on. The reason behind the shooting and the relationship between the two victims and the suspect is yet to be identified. They are still trying to figure out if the people were randomly chosen or if there was any specific motive behind the particular killings.

The Atlanta police have provided a statement, “We have an enormous amount of resources out at the scene. They have identification, so they’re in the process of locating the assailant.”

Similarly, Twitter is filled with people offering condolences to Michael and Westley, along with their parents. This was quite an unfortunate incident that has taken innocent lives.
