MINNESOTA'S 21st CONFIRMED VICTIM OF INTIMATE PARTNER HOMICIDE
THE COALITION TO END RELATIONSHIP ABUSE REMEMBERS SAMANTHA FARAH
Samantha Farah was stabbed and killed by her husband Nasri Abdilahi, 23, in their Bloomington apartment on September 27. Neighbors reported hearing a woman screaming that night, and a witness later saw Abdilahi dragging Samantha's body to a dumpster. When police arrived at the scene, they found Samantha's body in the dumpster with signs of "significant trauma." They followed a trail of blood from the dumpster to the apartment Samantha shared with Abdilahi, where a knife was discovered in a pool of blood. Officers then witnessed Abdilahi flee in his car before leading them on a chase for five miles. When Abdilahi was appended, he was covered in blood and the one-year-old child he shared with Samantha was found in the vehicle. Family members of Abdilahi and Samantha told police that Abdilahi suffered from "mental health issues." According to Samantha's family, she moved to Minnesota last year from Michigan with her daughter to be closer to Abdilahi. Samantha Farah leaves behind her one-year-old daughter.
Nasri Abdilahi is charged with second-degree murder and fleeing police in a motor vehicle.
Samantha's family has created a GoFundMe to raise money for her funeral and daughter: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-with-expenses-for-samanthas-funeral.
