Drake is an artist who tries to keep the audiences at his show feeling as positive as possible. On recent tours, he's been kind enough to give out luxurious designer bags, cash prizes, and even vehicles to random patrons, or people who come to his shows to celebrate after battling cancer. Despite his best efforts, there's a lot that remaisn outside of the Canadian's control, including reckless drivers outside the venue. Following his performance in Missouri earlier this month, a mother-daughter duo lost their lives after 22-year-old Monte Henderson sped through a red light.
According to WPDE, the young man was released from jail last Friday (February 23). At the time, he posted $20K, or 10% of his $200K bail, court records obtained by the outlet reveal. Henderson was arrested on two counts of first-degree involuntary manslaughter charges and two counts of armed criminal action. His victims were 42-year-old Laticha "Lety" Bracero and her daughter, 21-year-old Alyssa Cordova. The women were visiting from Chicago to see Drake in downtown St. Louis on Valentine's Day when they lost their lives while crossing the street.

"Data retrieved from the Jeep Grand Cherokee indicated that the vehicle was traveling at speeds in excess of 70 mph prior to violating the red traffic signal," court records notes. "Based on the foregoing and the serious nature of the charges, I believe that the defendant is not likely to appear voluntarily on a summons and is a danger to the community," one officer wrote.
As the loved ones left behind by Bracero and Cordova continue to grieve their unexpected loss, Drake is likely feeling more grateful than ever for his mother, Sandra Graham's presence in his life. Ending the most romantic month of the year on a mushy note, he shared a "forever core memory" of the blonde beauty with us on Instagram today.
