With heavy hearts, we honor the precious life of Jalexus Carter, a beautiful soul whose life was taken far too soon, leaving behind a wave of heartbreak that has touched family, friends, and an entire community.
On December 7, 2025, a tragedy unfolded on South Baringo Street in Helena–West Helena. Behind the headlines and investigations is a young woman whose life mattered — a daughter, a loved one, a friend, a light in the lives of those who knew her. Jalexus was more than a name in a report; she was a person with dreams, laughter, kindness, and a future that should have stretched far longer.
Those who knew Jalexus remember her for her warmth, her gentle spirit, and the way she brought comfort to those around her. She had a presence that could soften a room and a heart that made people feel safe and understood. Her smile carried light, and her laughter had a way of lingering long after the moment had passed.
Her loss is not just a statistic or a story — it is a deep, personal grief carried by those who loved her most. The silence she leaves behind is heavy, and the ache of her absence is something no one should have to endure.
As the community continues to grieve, we also recognize the tireless efforts of first responders and medical teams who fought bravely to save her life. We hold space for the pain her loved ones now carry and send prayers of strength, comfort, and peace to everyone affected.
May Jalexus Carter be remembered not for the violence that took her life, but for the love she gave, the joy she shared, and the light she brought into this world.
May her memory be a blessing.
May her spirit live on in every heart she touched.
And may she rest in eternal peace.
