MESSY MYA Death Photo Posted on Twitter



Messy Mya Death Pics
Messy Mya, dead at 22, death photos posted online

Messy Mya, a YouTube sensation and comedian hailing from New Orleans, was shot and killed Sunday after attending his girlfriend’s baby shower.

Although a motive for the shooting isn’t clear yet, we hear that Messy Mya was shot after busting someone’s balls.

Messy Mya was shot around 8pm Sunday night. As his body lay dying in the streets of New Orleans, a large crowd surrounded him, and at least one person took a photo of Messy Mya’s dead body. The really messed up part is that same person then took it upon themselves to post Messy Mya’s death photo on Twitter. The death photo then circulated with some people re-tweeting it, but most people were disgusted and saddened for Messy Mya.

Why anyone would disrespect someone by taking a death photo of them – and then post it on the internet – is beyond me. Is nothing sacred anymore? Don’t we owe murder victims (or anyone for that matter) the dignity of respecting them in their moment of death? Do we, as a society have ANY morals anymore?!

R.I.P. Messy Mya.

    Wow, that is unbelievable how far people go to get attention. Now they post images of a dead man, no respect just so they can get attention on their social networking sites. What has the world come to????

    I agree that nothing is sacred in this twisted world of ours. No one deserves treatment like that (death photo posted). I reviewed his stuff, he was just a funny guy! It was all jokes…he was so young, born in ’87! Jealousy and evil and just plain being in the wrong place at the wrong time can end tragically. I had to say a prayer for (or to) this young man’s soul even though I did not even know him, he was a human being. All I can say is that this was sad, very sad. One hour after his death…to be debased in such a manner. Lord help us all.

  • my opinion

    They probably posted his death photo to be purposely disrespectful because he didn’t have respect for people and did it to people when he was alive. Who wants to surf the internet and find themselves on camera being talked about? You got to treat people how you want to be treated. The videos are funny but you gotta agree some of it was wrong.

  • kendria

    Shut the Hell up!!! Messy Mya loved people and never meant any harm to anybody.So before you say anything be possitive cause no one is are would ever be PERFECT!!!

  • AB

    That’s so sad….we have become so desensitized to everything….nothing moves us, nothing shocks us. Karma is a beast to whomever had the nerve to take that photo. Why do we feel that just because our technology allows us to, we can post any and everything we want instantly??? Craziness….R.I.P.

  • Ashley

    WHOMEVER POSTED THE PIC HAS NO RESPECT FOR PEOPLE…
    IN SOME FORM YOU KNEW HIM AND DISRESPECTED HIM BY STARTIN THE PIC SENDIN…
    LET HIM REST…..
    PEACEFULLY…
    HE HAS FAMILY AND FRIENDS THAT IM SURE DIDNT WANT TO SEE HIM IN THAT WAY AND IT TRAVELED EVER WHERE…
    LEARN SOME RESPECT AS GODS CHILD HE HIS LOOKIN DOWN AND TURNING OVER IN HIS DEATH PLACE BECAUSE OF ALL THAT HIS CHILDRENS BAD DOINGS!
    WE AS A FAMILY OF GODS CHILDREN SHOULD RESPECT AND CARE FOR ONE ANOTHER…..
    STOP THE VIOLENCE PLEASE YALL ARE KILLIN OUR GOOD PEOPLE!

  • Bre Bre

    OMG I feel so bad for his childs mother…….this is a sad day for his family. I just saw him in the gas station……..so not called for.

  • angel

    People these days just dont care anymore nor do they have respect. How would they like their death pics all over the web.

  • NolaChocolate

    Hmm.. People are so disgusted by the twitpic of his body.. How about being disgusted by his words.. That boy verbally terrorized people just for laughs..No, he didn’t deserve to die, but if it had not been for HIS mouth he would still be alive today.. Your words are your weapons people! Speak Wisely!! God gave him the ability to have favor and garner the attention of people with that over the top personality of his. He should have used his gift(of gab, because he was not funny, just loud) for something productive. Nonetheless, I send my condolences to his family and friends. Hopefully someone learns a lesson from this…

  • Nawlins’CreolePrincess

    I am so hurt and disgusted by what has happened esp the way it happened. I knew Coo personally he was a very sweet and funny guy…although he walked around ribbin people he never wanted to hurt anyone…everyone knew it was all in fun. New Orleans better get it together lets not forget the judgement that was passed on us last time (Katrina)…we gotta do better…smh

  • SWEETDUCHASS

    FIRST OFF I WANNA SEND MY CONDOLENCES TO HIS FAM, BABY MAMMA, AND HIS UNBORN. SECONDLY HOW CAN PEOPLE BE SO FUCKIN CRUEL TO POST A PIC OF A MAN TAKIN HIS LAST BREATH. THAT SHIT IS DOWN RIGHT DESRESPECTFUL. HIS PEOPLE ALREADY GOIN THROUGH ENOUGH JUST BY LOSIN HIM AND U GON TURN AROUND AND POST SOME SHIT LIKE THAT. IT’S NOT FUNNY AND IT’S NOT RIGHT. FROM WHAT I SEE HE WAS WELL LOVED AND A VERY FUNNY PERSON. IF U CAN’T TAKE A JOKE THEN THAT’S ALL ON U, THAT’S NO REASON TO TAKE SOMEONE’S LIFE. HOPEFULLY THE PERSON OR PERSONS WHO DID THIS BURN IN HELL……

  • HARDHEAD7

    My deepest sympathy to the family of Anthony aka Coo aka Messy Mya….you all are in my heart and prayers … May you rest in peace…A New Orleans sensation on the Rise…u will be remembered even in your death…a true tragedy….Murderers/Haters/Ignorant People….need to stop…go Shoot yourselves…this doesn’t make sense they are getting younger and younger with nothing to look forward to…but Death and Jail…and to be sooo disrespectful to life is heartbreaking…posting his picture u should ashamed of yourself…go choke yourself.

  • jjones

    wasnt this dude gay so why is hit getting folks pregnant. no one deserves to day but he had his day coming…

    First off I send my condolencess to his familyy , friendss , andd all who knew and loved him. Secondly , I do not agree with the fact of people saying that he was terrorizing people with his mouth by clowning them and making videos of it on the internet , last time i checked we do have a Freedom of Speech so he can say what he pleases. I know that he didnt mean any harm to anybody , its not yall place to determine what happens to a [erson for their actions thats God’s place , but now God will deal with the person who did thiss to him. They took the life of a sweet harmless person,someone’s babydaddy,someone’s father,someone’s brother,cousin,son,nephew, and even friend. Noone deservess to get shot for any reason. The same people thats saying he shouldnt have been joking about others , are probably thee samee peoplee that look at hiss videoss onn youtubee andd laughh at himm talkk about other peoplee, so why cant yuee takee thee jokee likee everyone else. Im not judging the suspect all im sayingg iss wass it worth yuee getting jail timee just because yuee felt offendedd,was it worth yuee taking an innocent persons life. Now yuee have to walkk aroundd withh that chipp on yur shoulder and hurt in yur heart jss becausee yuee couldnt takee thee jokingg. Rest in paradisee Messy Myaa , yuee aree Most Definitely inn aa better placee:)

    omg how can people be so selfish and inconsiderate……how can u kill someone over a joke first of all if yu cudnt take being booked u shundt have been their…..and who gives a damn if the messy mya had a smart mouth um sure whoever wrote that shit has one tu yu wudnt want nobody tu pop ur ass so u can jus shut the fuck up cause it wud be all diffrent if it was ur family member laying dwn their on that ground… and u never know how life was to him booking ppl could have been something he did just to have fun and release his mind you never know what a person may go through. so RIP messy mya….and i hope who who killed hym burnnss in hell

  • mslalagirl

    I turned the sound off because he used the N-word so much. Eww, but he did not deserve to be killed. Noticed on his twitter page he broadcast his destination. People be mindful of the things you post on the net because you never know who’s watching or hating on you. So sorry this happened to this young man. Who knows maybe he would have made it big! My condolences to his family…And to those who stated if you cant take a joke, you should not have been there…everyone does not react to criticism the same.

  • Candygurl BRINGIN IT IN

    You know its very sad how cruel ppl r in this world today. Messy Mya U r gone but will never be forgotten MY HEART GOES OUT TO ALL OF THE TRUE FRIENDS N FAMILY MEMBERS OF THIS YUNG MAN.. It didn’t even have to go down like that but remember WHAT GOES AROUND COMES RITE BACK AROUND………. IMA KEEP MESSY MYA IN MY PRAYERS….. NAH WHO”S GUNNA POP ME N MY MESSSY MYA VOICE….!!!!

  • Sister Girl

    It ‘s really sad that all of these people were out there and not one person and I’m taking to the person that placed the photo of this young man in death would snap a pic of the murder. Again back to this city with a very dark content hanging over them this place is plagued with murder, corruption, and every type of evil you can name. And no one seems to have any answers. I will say the when you are ignorant you are a lost cause. I will also say that are what you learn. Killing is a learned behavior as ignorance is. Until people start learning how to pray and serve God, there will be many more instances like that of Mr. Barre. Sadly to his family condolences to you all.

  • Amore’

    R.I.P. Coo .
    ily.
    You will truly be missed .

  • Shayshay

    I agree with mslalagirl, not everybody reacts to critism the same, it was stupid he got killed but too wrongs don’t make it right, to people who don’t live in n.o. they think he is ignorant and wrong for the videos he do by making fun of people. your mouth could get you killed and just like people have freedom of speech they have freedom of press to post whatever pics they want to. its doesn’t make it right but its not right to curse and make fun of people you don’t know. we as blacks need to stick together. the white man don’t need to kill us or hold us down, because we are doing it to each other and doing them a favor. i cry so much and can’t get him out my head.. but two wrongs don’t make a right. i then seen people rib and start fighting. taking a whole u turn. just so so sad… poor baby

  • Asia

  • sunshine

    r.i.p. dear boi, and may their makers hold them accountable…it will NEVER amaze me how cruel ppl are and can be, esp. those that cant take a joke when a man is celebrating the life of his unborn child, put down ur guns and pick a book, learn something new bc ignorance is so 1930′s.

  • My Opinion

    Who ever posted this picture will eventual seek out their “CELEBRITY” in the matter, If the public is really mad they will do everything either to not give it to them or batter them so severly with bad, press, guilt and shame enough that Tiger Woods comes home every other night and turns on the t.v. and says “Damn, They tryna ruin dat nigga LIFE! In perfect ebonics of course… This will also show that certain types of bullshit may be legal but its not socially acceptable even if it is a FREE country. Lets not even look at the words FREE and country together as it will open a whole other can of worms. . .Black people, we know what we have to do, its time to wake up and get to the business of strengthening our nation. . and if you dont know what i mean by OUR NATION, then go to church, read a book and then do both at the same time because I can’t help you, not yet anyway. STOP PRETENDING as if this is something we dont need to DO, I dont care who is in OFFICE. . .Its simple start at home with the values that you were taught and the morals you know to be true. . .”Then spread out wit it”- T.I.P. WE are BORN to get this $$$$ BORN to be a success no matter what field we choose. NOW IS THE TIME THIS IS THE HOUR!. . .(calms down), thx i had to get that out. . .As far as the direct topic goes granted no man truly has the right to take the life of another, however there are certain crimes that I, associates, many of the temporarily/permanently incarcerated, and sometimes God find to be deserving of death. . .Insulting people ain’t one of em. . .You deserve to get BEAT UP for running your mouth wrecklessly. Its a punk ass move to murder someone because you cant verbally or physically defend yourself, or garner enough self control to walk away. Who ever killed him will have to live with himself, his punishment in this life and the next, I dont know HOW people dont believe that you can and in most cases will get punished for asshole you were before and after you die, but alot of people dont believe in an after life at all, I think i’ll elect the 401(k) plan that gives me eternal securities, bliss and a 100 fold return on my investment opposed to the one, where you die and FADE into an OBLIVION.

    - My Opinion.

    I know that i swear like a sailor through out this post. . . Im an EmCee so I get a pass but you can hate the truth till it hurts/ and itll still kill ya first. Deuces

  • Kiing Fields

    Messy Mya did what any other comedian these days does..bag on people it’s no different than sitting at the front row of a comedy show and getting picked on. But everyone doesn’t like to be teased but it still gives NO RIGHT to take a person from their loved ones so violently or take a life at all for that matter. No matter his lifestyle or his antics he was still a brother to us all being one of God’s children and even more so to us local N.O. folk no matter if we knew him personally or distant he was home grown 504 to the bone. So lets put all the he say and she say aside and pray for the young brother soul that God accepts him into the land of milk and honey. To the person who did it in time it will come to light because their guilt will eat them up and if it don’t their pride will…they’ll start talking once everything settles down trying to get bragging rights with their boys about who killed the young man, and once that happens the streets will talk. So all and all everyone involved in this whole fiascal we need to pray for…Anthony aka Messy so that his soul is in salvation..his family for strength in their time of loss..the killer(s) that they turn themselves in and God has mercy on their soul for taking a life…and the infamous phone pic person….so instead of blames lets send some prayers out real talk…cuz this is getting chaotic. R.I.P. dude you were one of a kind…

  • sherrod brown

    people, images, and videos of celebrity death and others is COMMON as rain. media Actually LOOKS for that stuff. People were looking for the croc hunter video. Many many others. People played the auto crash killing the famous NUMBER 3 over and over.
    The media Loves to show that crap. And a common twitter poster does it and you call it disrespectful?
    How many were on here looking for MJ videos or clips of autopsy videos? You people need to quit.

    What is this world coming to?I have been reading a lot of stuff lately concerning end times,and its things like this that make me question if its real or not.What kind of person can see another human being laying in the street dying and think,(Let me take a picture?)That is just a whole new low for mankind!Please people if ever confronted with a similar situation,DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN!!Wake up people we are heading down a dark lonely road.I am not by any means perfect,and have done things I’m not proud of,but damn,I don’t even think there is a word that can describe what this person did!!Congratulations buddy you are definately the 1st to reach the bottom!!Just my opinion.

  • espicey aka elyce watson

    Well, like a Rose never die. The scent of you fill the room so full of memories of laughing with you. Your smile full of grace a child of god with a lovely future. Live on your memories will never ever die. A rising star so full of spark I only knew you from watching you and family and friends on tube I loved it. What I’m sayin I don’t know you but me and my family send our love for the family and his unborn child. It hurts to see this happened, seeming that messy music was a human being and didn’t deserve to go so soon. Whoever did this it was senseless. Man man man. God bless the baby. I’m crying its so sad to hear this.

    It’s not that serious to kill someone because of what comes out of their mouth! NO EXCUSE! It was not that damn serious..he was funny, and crazy, but no one deserves to be killed over that…

    I Didnt Know Messy Mya , But Watched His Videos , Everything He Says Were All Jokes & He Was Funny . To Whom Shot Him KARAMAS A BTCH . To Who Took The Photo KARMAS A BTCH . Why Would You Not Let Someone Leave This Earth With Dignity ? The World Is Coming To Something I Couldnt Even Imagine Seeing . What Gives You The Right To Take Someones Life ? NO MATTER WHAT THEY DID . Its WRONG . No If &’s Or Buts About It .

    “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.”

    Yeah, right.

    Words can do great good or great harm. Words have power, and how we choose words, and use words, has consequences — especially in a mad world where image, rep and street cred count for more than human life. We “clown” and “diss” for sport in a culture that worships guns, and we think nothing will happen?
