Nia Wilson’s Last Moments On A Train

Train transportation seems simple and easy, but being in the vicinity of dangerous people can change the whole experience.

[Oakland, CA]

Nia Wilson (18) was sunshine in human form: radiant, bright, warming, and brought out happiness in others. She was extremely beautiful with a talent in make up application and styling herself in the most trendy outfits. The likes on her social media posts piled up, but beyond being a stunning, stylish girl that attracted attention, she used her intelligence to her advantage.

At a young age, she picked up on reading and articulating her words well. Therefore, by her teenage years, she found a passion in writing and creating music with her sister, Tashiya (20). They even formed a girls group together where they recorded fun music videos and rapped together.

Nia’s family dynamic was a blended one, but nevertheless, a strong and loyal foundation. Her parents split up a while ago, but they maintained a friendly relationship to keep their family bond tight. In addition to her parents keeping heavy tabs on Nia, she had an older sister, Letifah (26), that she loved spending time with or confiding in for advice.
