She didn't deserve it. She was cheated out of life at 21 years old
It was 4 a.m. when Tootie Posley’s phone rang Sunday. It rang and rang, but she didn’t answer because she was asleep and didn’t hear it. Finally, it woke her up about an hour later.
“Cachet [Peterson]’s dead,” Asia James said. “She got shot in the head.”
“Nah. Not my Cachet,” Posley replied. “Not my Cat.”
Peterson, 21, was one of two women who were shot outside Southside Social early Sunday morning. Tiana Linares, 24, was also injured but is said to be in stable condition.
