Keona Sade Foote
Age 23
Rochester
September 10, 2020

Keona Sade Foote, 23, and her two-year old daughter, Miyona Zayla Miller were shot and killed by Keona’s ex-boyfriend, Renard Carter, 29, on September 10. Police report that Keona was strangled and both she and Miyona died from trauma. Keona was pregnant with Carter’s child at the time she was killed. Carter had recently made social media posts threatening to kill the mothers of his children and multiple witnesses reported hearing Carter make threats in person. Friends and family became worried on September 12, when they had not heard from Keona in a couple of days, and entered her apartment to find her and Miyona dead. A warrant was then issued for Carter, who was on probation after he pled guilty last year to felony domestic violence no contact order violation, and was sentenced to prison. He was released from prison in April 2020. Videos of Keona’s killing were posted to Carter’s social media. Carter was eventually apprehended in Columbia, South Carolina, on September 13, where it is believed he traveled to kill another ex-girlfriend, and mother of his children. When police arrived to arrest Carter at a hotel, he opened the door holding a BB gun. He was shot multiple times by officers. Carter livestreamed a portion of this incident online. He is currently in the hospital in South Carolina, but will be extradited to Minnesota on two charges of second-degree murder.

Minneapolis
June 4, 2020

Brandon Jose Nieves

Age 20
South St. Paul

Brandon Jose Nieves, 20, was shot and killed by Marcelino Lopez, 19, in South St. Paul, on April 2.

Pauline Hollman

Age 58
Minneapolis
March 10, 2020

On March 10, Pauline Hollman, 58, died from injuries sustained when her boyfriend, Michael Cloutier, 65, stabbed her the previous month. On February 15, officers responded to a call at a Minneapolis apartment from a man saying someone broke in and stabbed his girlfriend. Cloutier, who lived in the apartment with Pauline, initially denied calling 911 when police arrived. However, upon entering the apartment, officers found Pauline lying on an air mattress in a pool of dried blood. Cloutier became upset and combative with police, and he was taken into custody where he later confessed to the stabbing. Since the blood on the air mattress was dried, authorities believe Pauline was left untreated for several hours. Pauline was transported to a hospital for emergency surgery, but eventually died on March 10. While Michael Cloutier was originally charged with assault, the charges have since been amended to homicide.

Police were also notified by witnesses that Wiseman was seeking a divorce, but did not want to contribute to a divorce settlement because he, “earned this.” Inside the home, police found a letter showing that Wiseman met with an estate planner in February, along with a passport and hidden cash.

Age 27
St. Paul
March 7, 2020

On March 7, Jackie DeFoe, 27, and her 20-month-old son, Kevin Shabiash Jr., were killed in their Cloquet home on the Fond du Lac Indian Reservation by Jackie’s boyfriend Sheldon Thompson, 33. During a welfare check on the home, police officers found Jackie’s body covered with lacerations and blood in a bedroom closet. Kevin’s body was found in a separate bedroom with “observable bruising to his head.” Shortly after police discovered the bodies, Thompson called 911 to turn himself in for the murders and was taken into custody. An autopsy found Jackie died from multiple stab wounds, and was 13 weeks pregnant at the time of death. Kevin was killed due to blunt force injuries. Thompson has a long history of relationship abuse including a conviction for misdemeanor domestic assault in 2013, and gross misdemeanor domestic assault in 2016, both against previous partners. He also had multiple domestic assault by strangulation charges that were subsequently dropped. Thompson’s ex-wife had a protective order and a Domestic Abuse No Contact Order (DANCO) against him after several assaults. One assault resulted in a broken jaw; doctors were initially prevented from performing surgery on her due to excessive swelling. Thompson received a felony conviction after he violated his ex-wife’s DANCO in 2017. In 2006, he was charged with second-degree murder but took a plea deal that reduced his conviction to felony seconddegree assault with a dangerous weapon. Sheldon Thompson has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder of Jackie DeFoe and her son, Kevin Shabiash Jr.

Monique Saraya Robbins

Age 28
St. Paul
February 26, 2020

Monique Saraya Robbins, 28, was killed in her St. Paul apartment by her boyfriend, DeMarea Clay, 24, on February 26. Neighbors called police in the early morning of February 26, to report loud noises coming from Monique’s apartment, and a man dragging a woman’s body into a car. When officers arrived they found Clay standing outside his vehicle. He told police Monique had a seizure while showering, and that she was overdosing on drugs. Officers performed CPR on Monique, who did not have a pulse, before she was transported to a hospital. The drugs Clay said Monique had taken were not found in her system. She did have significant bruising and bleeding to her head and face, and her cause of death was determined to be asphyxiation. Clay has a history of documented domestic violence. Two weeks before Monique’s death Clay was charged with domestic assault and given a criminal Domestic Abuse No Contact Order (DANCO) to stay away from her and her apartment building. He was also charged with domestic assault against Monique in September 2019, and police responded to domestic disturbances at her apartment in August and November of that year. Monique had told her friends and family about Clay’s controlling behavior, his threats to her life, and that he strangled her. Relatives said Monique recently arranged for her daughter to live with family members because she didn’t think her daughter was safe around Clay. Clay’s previous girlfriend had a protective order against him for abusing her, which he was charged with violating, but was eventually dismissed. DeMarea Clay has been charged with second-degree unintentional murder. Monique Saraya Robbins is survived by her 8-year-old daughter.

Abigail Elise Simpson

Age 21
St. Paul
February 26, 2020

Abigail Elise Simpson, 21, was killed by her boyfriend, Terrion Sherman, 23, in her St. Paul apartment on February 26. Police responded to the apartment after calls of a loud and violent argument between a man and a woman. Upon arrival, officers heard a child crying through Abigail’s apartment door, along with a man saying, “Stay down or I’ll kill you.” When police entered the apartment, they found Sherman and his 2-year-old nephew covered in blood. Abigail was also found bloody and unresponsive with a knife close to her body. While Sherman was being transported to the Ramsey County Law Enforcement Center, he told officers he was on drugs and broke out of the back window of the police car. He was taken to Regions Hospital, but was soon medically cleared and discharged. Later, while talking to investigators, Sherman said he remembered punching Abigail and hitting her head against a radiator before blacking out. Abigail was also stabbed several times and the medical examiner ruled her cause of death to be from multiple traumatic injuries. Sherman was civilly committed less than a week prior to Abigail’s murder, but he was not held in a secure hospital. Instead, he was connected with various services provided by the county. Sherman was committed previously in 2019. While he initially told officers he was on drugs, in his confession Sherman later said he was not on drugs and did not take his prescribed medication because, “he is not crazy.” Terrion Sherman has been charged with second-degree murder of Abigail Elise Simpson.

Minneapolis
February 15, 2020

Joseph “Moochie” McRunnel, 39, also known as Perry Joseph Bellcourt II, was stabbed and killed by his girlfriend Zara Case, 35, in their Minneapolis apartment on February 15. In the early morning of February 15, police responded to a call from Joseph and Case’s neighbor that Case broke his window and was attempting to enter his apartment.

While officers spoke with Joseph, the neighbor called police again to state that Case was trying to enter his apartment. The officers left when Case returned to the apartment she shared with Joseph. Shortly after, police were contacted a third time by the neighbor who stated Case was outside screaming that her boyfriend was stabbed. When police returned to the scene, officers found Joseph with a stab wound to his chest, along with visible bite marks and bruises. Joseph later died at the hospital due to the stab wound.

Steve's Story

Last week I missed my regular shift at the Pine County food shelf as I had foot surgery. I told Jackie, the director, I would let her know my future status as soon as I could . I had my post-op exam today and learned that the doctors and nurses carry their exam

gloves in their pockets as the patients were stealing the boxes out of the exam rooms and that the hand sanitizers were removed from the entrances as they were being

stolen as soon as they were put out. To say that my view of humanity was dimmed a bit is an understatement. As I parked at the food shelf I could see lines of people and vehicles waiting for assistance As soon as I was inside I talked to Jackie and told her my status. The phones were ringing off the hook and she asked if I could help . So for 2 hours the phone rang nonstop. During that time I observed that there were at least 5 high school kids and all of the regular volunteers working to pack boxes and stock shelves. No one was panicking and no one complained. Family Pathways, our staff and volunteers , you brightened my view of humanity. A huge and heartfelt thanks to all that make Pathways so great .

Jackie's Story

For years, he abused me. He took away my freedom, career, money and my power. Family Pathways helped me find a lawyer and my power. I have my life back.

Kim's Story

My passion in life is empowering individuals to reach their full potential. It’s so much fun to garden with the kids and moms at the shelter – they talk and I listen. My hope is that it gives them a sense of peace.

J's Story

It was such a pick me up. I don’t know what I would have done without the help of my volunteer. She saved me from having to move from my house. She is there when I call and even comes over on weekends!

G's Story

After meeting with a Family Pathways Aging Care Specialist, I had resources and a plan so I could make good decisions for my wife’s care. It has allowed me to get help for her and eased my mind enough to go back to work.

AH's Story

I am a domestic violence and sexual assault survivor. It is amazing that I can be that support for survivors like myself. It is so rewarding to be apart of another person’s healing, making a positive impact on their life. I know that when a client says thank you before moving on to their next stepping stone in life that I made a positive change in their life. We are the difference. We stand for change, justice, and whole hearted support!

-“AH,” Domestic Violence Staff

C's Story

My family is happier, because where we were before there was a lot of yelling, I didn’t like it. [Being at the shelter] was great because I got to be helped by you and other advocates. You helped me to be happy when I was sad.

Trisha's Story

Family Pathways Food Shelf has been a reliable source of groceries, resources such as gas cards, and other helpful resources. Without Family Pathways our family would struggle more than it does, I’m disabled on disability, and have my granddaughter staying with me. This means the difference between fresh vegetables and canned, Frozen and fresh meat or canned meat oh, maybe no meat at all. Thank you for your support in helping Family Pathways, thank you Family Pathways for being that support.

When I think of Family Pathways and all the good work they do in our community, the word that comes to my mind is GRATITUDE. I’m grateful that the individuals and families in our community can turn to Family Pathways when they are in need. I’m grateful for the dedication of the employees and volunteers who work at Family Pathways. As a donor I am so grateful that I am able to be a part of this community service and in a small way contribute to the well being of our neighbors. Thank you!

Steve's Story

Last week I missed my regular shift at the Pine County food shelf as I had foot surgery. I told Jackie, the director, I would let her know my future status as soon as I could . I had my post-op exam today and learned that the doctors and nurses carry their exam

gloves in their pockets as the patients were stealing the boxes out of the exam rooms and that the hand sanitizers were removed from the entrances as they were being

stolen as soon as they were put out. To say that my view of humanity was dimmed a bit is an understatement. As I parked at the food shelf I could see lines of people and vehicles waiting for assistance As soon as I was inside I talked to Jackie and told her my status. The phones were ringing off the hook and she asked if I could help . So for 2 hours the phone rang nonstop. During that time I observed that there were at least 5 high school kids and all of the regular volunteers working to pack boxes and stock shelves. No one was panicking and no one complained. Family Pathways, our staff and volunteers , you brightened my view of humanity. A huge and heartfelt thanks to all that make Pathways so great .
