Shaheerah Brooks of East Point, a mother of three, was discovered with a gunshot wound to the chest on Aug. 7 near a playground bench in Atlanta’s West End Park. She was 33. “Death itself is already hard but to lose your (loved) ones at the hands of someone else is a different type of hurt,” her sister, Shayla Brooks, wrote in an online tribute. “That’s a hurt you will never heal properly from.”
