A 22-year-old Cobb County woman was charged with the shooting death of a Kennesaw student during a road rage incident that is slowly attracting national attention.
Kimberly Kilgore, 21, and Sparkles LaShayla Lindsey’s lives couldn’t be more different. The popular Kennesaw State University student loved country and western music, and she took pride in her vast collection of cowboy boots.
Lindsey emulated the thug life that was glorified by the rappers she idolized. According to published reports, Lindsey, of Austell, had a criminal record that most rappers would envy.
The two women’s lives intersected on a darkened stretch of Shiloh Road in Cobb County, GA, early Friday morning. A road rage incident involving 2 carloads of women ended with shots fired just inside the gates of Shiloh Green Apartments around 2 a.m.
Witnesses say the two drivers — Lindsey and Kilgore — got into a physical altercation in the parking lot of the apartment complex. At some point, Lindsey pulled a gun out of her waistband and fired a single shot, striking Kilgore in the head.
Kilgore was transported to WellStar Kennestone Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Lindsey and her friends fled the scene before police arrived.
Detectives secured an arrest warrant for Lindsey later that day and she was taken into custody without incident. Lindsey was charged with aggravated assault and murder.
Kilgore’s friends struggle to understand the senseless violence committed by a young woman who had at least 2 prior arrests for assault and battery.
Kilgore was scheduled to work Friday night at Johnny’s BBQ in Powder Springs. One of her co-workers was a passenger in Kilgore’s SUV that night.
“She works every Friday night and here it is Friday night and we’re walking around … just can’t even describe the feeling,” Manager Alisa Pannell told Channel 2 reporter Ashley Swann.
Cobb County residents vented their frustrations on social media and message boards. Most of the angry chatter centered around Kilgore and Lindsey’s skin color and the perceived media bias that suppresses race when a black kills a white.
Lindsey’s friends defended her on social media networks. “My old co-worker, Sparkles Lindsey, killed a girl over a road rage incident. While she was wrong, people need to watch how they drive,” tweeted Natasha Hall.
Lindsey is being held without bond in the Cobb County jail.

We had a discussion about this a couple of weeks ago. Most stud lesbians have daddy issues. They didn’t bond appropriately with their fathers because he was missing in their lives, physically or emotionally. And some of them didn’t bond appropriately with their mothers for the same reasons. These girls are confused. By dressing like men they symbolically kill off their fathers to win their mothers’ Love.
Sandra can we get a post on Pharrell & his wife’s distinct wedding attire

Road rage is real in these streets. I chased a heffa all they way to county service road for throwing a Mickey D’s tea in my car because I wouldn’t let her over. Thought I was going to keep going because she pulled into the jail

Poor little white girl, I really feel for her family, this neanderthal needs to be put down- animal.

TY
I remma you tellin me that. I almost got hit head on on that lil bridge shyt right there in Smyrna.
I thought this chick was one of my fanasty football players. Road rage is getting out of hand, but don’t let me lie I got the rage fever. Just because my ride is less than some peoples mortgage payment doesn’t mean they can run over my ride. Wait till income tax I will be sittin on some 8’s.
Please. I have a lebanese cousin that I didn’t know was a girl until I was 13!
She was the baby of the family. Spoiled rotten by her mama & the apple of her deddy’s eye.
SHE chose to be in the alley working on cars with her deddy.
And her a$$ fought, and did everything the male thugs in the family did – including dressing in suits and ties.
She didn’t have mama or daddy issues. Her only issue is that she longed to be a man, and she did what she thought made her appear as manly as possible. She walked hard, talked hard, fought hard, and dressed hard.
One time I overheard her say, “let me go home and make Hattie suk my @&$k!”
But y’all just told me he is a she!!!!!????!?!!
I’m still befuddled.
Poor little white girl, I really feel for her family, this neanderthal needs to be put down- animal.

I got lil razz in the office with me today and it’s my day off..
Well, she gets to go to that place where everybody has to prove how “bad” they are. What she did was ridiculous. I get cut off all the time in traffic. I have cut others off also (not on purpose). GET OVER IT! I don’t even give eye contact to people who are acting stupid in traffic and for goodness sake, never exit your car when some fool is either following you, cussing you or threatening you in any way. She deserves prison and in Cobb County Court System, she’s guaranteed prison time.
@Sandra Rose…….I completely disagree with your statement about Studs having father issues, as a Stud I have neither a criminal record nor parent issues. Being raised with both parents and step-parents I feel no need to take on the role of anyone I am not. I do agree that today’s Studs are too much into the “thug” lifestyle but no more than most juveniles raised in an environment where parents aren’t taking an active role in their child’s life. I was raised in a home where all of my parents were very active in my life, which would explain why I have a successful career, good credit, no criminal history, and a healthy 10 year marriage with the same women.
@ superbinkey: I don’t expect you to understand the psychology behind why you are the way you are. You probably think being a stud lesbian is normal.
I swear these baby studs make me want to go hide under a rock. Its hard enough being a black gay woman then you go to ATL and see them dressed like baffoons but yet march around wanting equal rights.
Two lives destroyed over temporary feelings smh.

Kinda sad, but neither do I !
So crazy. Now how will she justify, in cobb county, killing a white lady? Blk folks I swear.
Sparkles might as well get ready to have herself a prison wife.
Ms. Rose . . . and why are Most of the Studs I know about nick-named DEE or some derivative . . . is this a euphemism for Dyke?
BTW, I love your explaination for the turbulence in their lives involving “daddy issues”!
When One looks at it . . . it does make sense in what you say!
. . . also I have an Attitude!
WHY are most of the suspects doing bad Black Men or Black Women.
I cannot believe in this country where the population is Mostly Caucasian that the majority don’t commit Any crimes . . . No where???
GBO with MORE NEWS LATER
First off what was the point of saying she was a lesbian in the first place. I mean does that really matter. LOL. Just askin. I can understand the writer writing it if it was the reason leading up to her death. LOL.
No crap or foul play Sandra Rose (no disrespect at all)
Wow, this incident happened right on the street I live on’!!! ? This is usually a nice, safe neighborhood, I’ve lived here almost 5 years. I didn’t hear anything about a shooting. This is terrible! R.i.p
