My nephew was murdered outside a nightclub in Los Angeles, and TMZ published a video of the shooting. I started a petition asking them to remove the video and apologize to our family. |

Earlier this week, my family and I were going through what no family should ever have to — my 19-year-old nephew Andre had been shot outside a nightclub in Los Angeles and shortly after, was pronounced dead at the hospital.
But even while some of us were in the E.R. frantically waiting to hear of Andre’s condition, the tabloid TMZ posted a graphic video of Andre being shot on its website and on YouTube.
TMZ usually covers celebrities, but Andre was just a student. We’ve asked the tabloid repeatedly for them to take the video down, but it has so far refused to respond.That’s why I started a petition on Change.org demanding that TMZ take the video of my nephew Andre Lowe being shot off the internet right now.

Andre had a bright future ahead of him and wasn’t afraid to work hard for what he wanted out of life. He was small in stature but had a big heart, and there are countless friends and family who will miss him greatly.
My family and I are still reeling from our loss. We shouldn’t be tortured even further by a tabloid like TMZ using an innocent young student’s murder for shock value and entertainment. Even now, it’s making money every time someone watches the video. It makes me sick.
