A Chicago activist who took up the Kanneka Jenkins has come out to claim that the deceased entered the walk-in freezer all by herself, she was never forced. According to the activist, the police showed him the surveillance footage of Kenneka Jenkins hours before her death.
According to Holmes, he saw Jenkins, 19, waiting in the lobby of the Crowne Plaza Chicago O’Hare Hotel after her friends apparently left for the party room to collect some of their belongings. Jenkins who looked disoriented rides the elevator to a lower level and wanders around, opening doors before finally opening two doors in a kitchen area and enters the walk-in freezer. The doors close behind her and Jenkins is seen no more, he said.
‘We all was wondering and wanted to know did anybody pull her down there?’ Holmes told reporters Thursday. ‘Did anybody force her down there? Was anybody on the other side in that room when she got down there? And the answer to that is ‘no.’
