Shanquella Robinson's mother has criticized the FBI over its investigation into the death of her daughter, taking to Instagram to vent her frustrations.
Shanquella Robinson's mother, Salamondra Robinson, has argued that the FBI is not doing enough and not notifying the family enough with updates.
On October 29, 25-year-old Shanquella Robinson was found unconscious in the living room of a rented villa in San Jose del Carbo, a resort city on the southern tip of Mexico's Baja California peninsula.
Shanquella Robinson had traveled to Mexico with six of her friends from university, four women and two men. However, the details surrounding her death have sparked both controversy and mystery.
Shanquella Robinson's family said that the friends told the family that she had died of alcohol poisoning. However, a video went viral on social media showing Robinson being attacked.
A GoFundMe page set up for Shanquella Robinson highlighted the belief from her family that there was foul play involved in her death.
The GoFundMe page, which Shanquella Robinson's sister set up, said: "During this trip, she was found dead. Her associates claimed she died of alcohol poisoning, but the death certificate from the Mexican government contradicts this statement as it reveals a broken neck and cracked spine and a time of death which is 15 minutes after she sustained these injuries.
Mexican prosecutors are reportedly attempting to have a woman extradited from the U.S. to face charges related to Shanquella Robinson's death. The FBI has also launched its own investigation into the death.
Sharing a picture of herself and her daughter on Saturday, Salamondra Robinson wrote as a caption: "Enough is not being done by the FBI to put the individuals who attacked Shanquella behind bars.
"I'm just trying to wait for somebody to be arrested. The FBI is not telling anything as of right now.
"Shanquella's attackers looked me right in my face and told me there was no fight that happened in Cabo Mexico. I believe they are on the run."
She also shared another picture of her and her daughter on Sunday again attacking the FBI.
She wrote:" I believe this all was planned. The people Shanquella went on a trip with have all been friends for over 10 years.
"Authorities have not informed me on any information to due to Shanquella case but I was told the FBI is now questioning from the Cabo 6."
When contacted by Newsweek, a U.S. State Department spokesperson said: "The Department of State has no higher priority than the safety and security of U.S. citizens overseas.
"When a U.S. citizen dies in a foreign country, local authorities are responsible for determining the cause of death.
"The Department of State supports a thorough investigation into the circumstances of this incident and is closely monitoring local authorities' investigation."
Regarding the Mexican authorities' extradition request of an American woman, the State Department said it does not comment on matters of extradition.
Newsweek has contacted the FBI and Shanquella Robinson's family for comment.
