The official announcement has not come yet, but it appears that a potential positive role model for young Latinos has been killed in a plane crash. Sad day.

She was 43.

I believe she did songs against drugs, street gang violence and the drug cartels operation out of Mexico.

The age of 43 certainly does not preclude her from being a role model for young people.

Much speculation since the remains of the plane look like it just vaporized.

My point was that I would not refer to JR as a "young person".

It looks like the plane was owned by a convicted crimnal and drug dealer:
