One black woman kills another over diaper money

A Facebook feud over a $20 loan for diapers left an aspiring Brooklyn lawyer dead - fatally stabbed by a teen mom who turned on her life-long friend, police said. Kayla Henriques, 18, calmly ate Chinese food after confessing to the vicious attack on Kamisha Richards - who had long treated the killer like a kid sister. Family and friends said Richards, 22, took the accused killer under her wing when Henriques' mother died 15 years ago. In 2010, Richards threw a baby shower for Henriques - and she was helping plan a first birthday party in May 2011 for the suspect's son Alex before the fatal falling-out over a package of Pampers. Richards - who was dating Henriques' brother Ramel - was irate after the teen asked for $20 to buy Pampers but instead spent the cash on other items. The once-friendly pair traded Facebook insults, with one of Kayla Henriques' uncles saying the hard feelings were further fueled by ugly text messages. Police found a kitchen knife at the crime scene. Police sources said they followed a blood trail to a neighboring building where Henriques was arrested. Richards, who was awaiting her Law School Admission Test results and hoped to begin law school, died at Brookdale University Hospital shortly after the stabbing.
