Queensbridge Teen Stabbed To Death In South Jamaica: Cops

SOUTH JAMAICA, QUEENS — The godsister of the 14-year-old boy killed on a basketball court last month was stabbed to death Friday in South Jamaica, according to police and news reports.

Police found Queensbridge Houses resident Talasia Cuffie, 17, just before 10 p.m. on 166th Street near Foch Boulevard. She had been stabbed multiple times in the stomach, police said.

First responders rushed her to Jamaica Hospital, but she couldn't be saved.

Cuffie's was reportedly the cousin and godsister of 14-year-old Aamir Griffin, who died on Oct. 26 after he was hit by a stray bullet while practicing basketball at the Baisley Park Houses, where he lived.

Cuffie, who had once lived with Griffin's family, moved back in with them to comfort them after his slaying, the New York Daily News reported.

She had been determined to find out who was responsible for Griffin's death, a cousin told the Daily News.

"She was devastated when he died, and she wanted to find answers," Trevor Mendez, 26, told the news outlet.

Cuffie was stabbed around the corner from where Griffin was hit by the bullet that killed him, according to police. It's unclear whether the two homicides are related.

Police have offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in Griffin's fatal shooting.
