CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A member of the so-called “Cabo 6,” the group that traveled to Mexico with Shanquella Robinson before her tragic death in 2022, is seeking to have a wrongful death lawsuit against her dismissed. E’Mani Green, previously known as Daejhanae Jackson, is making this request as new developments unfold in the ongoing legal battle surrounding the case.
Court documents indicate that Green has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, contending that the manner in which she was served with the complaint did not meet legal standards. She asserts that the papers were delivered to an individual at an address where she does not live, which she argues renders the service invalid.
The wrongful death lawsuit, filed in October 2024, accuses Green of violently attacking Robinson in their rented villa. The lawsuit claims that Robinson, who was naked at the time, was subjected to punches to her face, head, neck, and body, leaving her unable to defend herself against the alleged assault.
In a troubling twist, Green and fellow traveler Khalil Cooke reportedly returned Robinson’s belongings to her family, expressing condolences and incorrectly alleging that she died from alcohol poisoning.
In a separate legal matter, a federal judge recently dismissed some claims made by Robinson’s family against the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the State Department. Robinson’s mother, Sallamondra Robinson, is pursuing $100 million in damages connected to her daughter’s death, seeking accountability from these federal agencies for their handling of the situation.
Green’s motion also cites the statute of limitations as a factor in her defense. Notably, she has chosen to represent herself in these proceedings, filing Pro Se without the assistance of legal counsel.
Sue-Ann Robinson, the attorney representing Shanquella’s family—though not related—expressed that the dismissal of certain claims was anticipated following a recent court hearing. She explained that part of the family’s objective in filing claims against governmental entities was to require officials to clarify their motivations behind the perceived stagnation of the investigation.
The wrongful death lawsuit encompasses not only Green and Cooke but also the six individuals collectively referred to as the “Cabo 6.” The family’s suit alleges negligence on the part of federal authorities in the investigation process following Robinson’s death.
As it stands, no arrests have been made in connection with this case, leaving the family without closure as they continue to navigate the complexities of their legal battle.
