I found a blog called gofraudme, where people had posted videos that “Diamond” aka “Lavish” (aka “Precious”?) had uploaded of her smoking pot in front of her four-year-old daughter (child abuse, and thus grounds for having the child removed from her care), and where I encountered someone calling herself Heidi Pedersen.

Ok can I speak? People donated thousands of dollars believing it would go to Diamond and her daughter (the survivors). The first account the funds have been released to phils mom , and the second to phils sister. THE ONLY LEGIT account is the very last one posted by Diamonds best friend. It can also be verfied because it is also posted directly on Diamonds facebook where the origional video was live to begine with. Please concider that this woman needs so many things. She was engaged and not married to Phil. Her daughter Phil raised is not his biological daughter, so neither of them will be recieving any kind of survivor benifits. Diamond worked 2 jobs (which she can not work now due to the horrific event that just happened) and Phil worked 1 job as well. So this woman now has 0 income. The family car is ruined and splattered with her boyfriends car. She is unsafe where she is living so she will likely need to relocate. She is going to need a really good lawyer to fight for justice for what happened to her boyfriend right in front of her and her daughter. They are both going to need extensive therapy. So please, if your going to donate, the one her best friend is hosting that is the only account where she will see a penny of this money. Thank you. [Gofundme link removed by N.S.]

“Diamond and her daughter (the survivors).” Diamond and her daughter are not the survivors. The only survivors are Philando Castile’s family.

You sound like a scam artist. Indeed, every single person “raising money,” as far as I can see, is only ripping off suckers. You have no connection to Philando Castile’s family, nor does Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds. Reynolds was neither married to, nor engaged to Castile, and was not the mother of his child. Someone referred to the child as Castile’s “step-daughter,” but that is just more of a con-job. Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds was just a woman who sometimes slept with Philando Castile, and who was guilty of child neglect or abuse for smoking dope in front of her 4-year–old, whom she forced to inhale her narcotic smoke.

“Diamond worked 2 jobs (which she can not work now due to the horrific event that just happened) and Phil worked 1 job as well. So this woman now has 0 income. The family car is ruined and splattered with her boyfriends car. She is unsafe where she is living so she will likely need to relocate.”

Of course, she can work. She’s working the media full-time, i.e., she’s not suffering any ill-effects. She has decided that she is going to clean up on this incident, and you’re helping, assuming you’re not her working under another pseudonym. She’s not in any danger; that’s just another bald-faced lie. And she has no need for money for any “really good lawyer to fight for justice for what happened to her boyfriend.” She has no standing to sue. The only lawyers who will fight for “justice” are prosecutors, who are paid by the taxpayers, and who will only get to work the case, if a grand jury passes a clean bill to indict the cop who shot Castile. Thus, you are a scam artist, and so is Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds, assuming you’re not the same person.
