A 31-year-old model whose body was found in a luxury Los Angeles apartment was pregnant at the time of her death which has been determined to be the result of homicidal violence.

Maleesa Mooney was one of two models found dead in their apartments in the same area of the city just days apart sparking fears they were both murdered.

Her exact cause of death had been listed as deferred, but Cause A is now listed by the LA County Medical Examiners Office as homicidal violence, KTLA reported. 7 Maleesa Mooney , a 31-year-old model who was found dead in her LA apartment, was pregnant at the time of her death, which has been described to be the result of “homicidal violence.”Jourdin Pauline/Instagram

Other significant conditions, also were cited in the official report, according to the outlet.

Mooneys sister, model Jourdin Pauline, told KTLA she believes the cause was listed as deferred because the victim had been beaten so badly that it was difficult to determine the exact cause of death.

Pauline also revealed that her sister was two months pregnant when she died and had always wanted to be a mom. 7 Maleesa Mooney a 31-year-old model who was found dead in her LA apartment, died from “homicidal violence.”Jourdin Pauline/Instagram

I cant imagine what my sister went through and it pains me to even think about it, she told the outlet.

Mooneys body was found Sept. 12 in her apartment on South Figueroa Street, while the other model, 32-year-old Nichole Coats, was found dead two days earlier in her apartment on South Grand Avenue, the LAPD said.

Police have said theres been no evidence to suggest theres any link between the deaths  though the similarities of the womens careers and their proximity stunned the community, which feared a serial killer may be on the loose.

Meanwhile, Mooneys grieving family members are desperately seeking answers about her death telling KTLA that police have not shared much information about the investigation, which has yet to yield an arrest. 7 Nichole Nikki Coats, 32, was found dead in her apartment on Sept. 10.Facebook 7 Coats’ deathis not being investigated as a homicide,Facebook

Its honestly so stressful, Pauline told the outlet. I have thousands and thousands of scenarios in my head of what could have happened because we dont know.

She said remains frustrated after waiting so long to get information.

This person is still out there and the police are not telling us anything, Pauline told KTLA. What is the hold up? What did the guys see? Can you share it with us? Suspects? Surveillance video that you do have? Show us something, tell us something so we can look out for it. 7 Coats was found dead two days earlier in her apartment on South Grand AvenueGoFundMe

When asked what the family is seeking the most, they said justice and closure.

Urgency. I need them to get answers. Theres all this technology in the world and youre dragging your feet. Someones life was robbed from them, the sister said.

Coats loved ones also told the outlet that they have not received any updates from investigators since the models death.  

Her mom, Sharon Coats, told The LA Times on Thursday that she was angry with police for ruling out foul play and not investigating the death as a homicide. 7 Police said there’s no evidence to suggest a link between the deaths. KTLA 5

She told the paper that the Medical Examiners Office told her that Nichole had been dead for three to five days before her body was found, which she said was impossible because she saw her daughter two days before her death.

Its like they dont care. Im not going to let this be a cold case. I will keep voicing my opinion regarding what happened, the grieving mom said.

The LAPD told KTLA this week that they had not received any updated information from detectives and had no further details to release.

Bama's Meadows exits after violent hit at Mizzou

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Alabama wide receiver Derek Meadows appeared to be knocked unconscious by a violent hit from Missouri safety Marvin Burks Jr. on Saturday, resulting in a scary situation in the first quarter at Memorial Stadium.

Meadows had leaped to catch a pass from Crimson Tide quarterback Ty Simpson when Burks, ranging to his left, delivered a big shoulder-to-shoulder blow. Meadows hit the turf and lay motionless, his right arm bent at an awkward angle, as several members of the Crimson Tide coaching staff rushed from the sideline to surround him.

Quiet fell over the stadium, and it took several minutes before they sat Meadows up, and several more before they helped him walk off the field. Burks was flagged for targeting on the play, and the penalty was upheld after the officials reviewed it.

Meadows, a freshman from Las Vegas, has yet to catch a pass in a game this season.

The game between the eighth-ranked Crimson Tide and No. 14 Missouri marks the first in Columbia between two AP top-15 teams since Sept. 29, 1979, when the Tigers lost to Texas. Alabama has not lost to Missouri since 1975.

Morris and Ziron Brown were credited with the tackle on a 12-yard catch by Jordan Hudson with five minutes left in the first quarter.
