Rapper J Stash killed himself on New Year’s Day after he reportedly shot and killed a woman in front of her three children.

Deputies from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department responded to a domestic violence call on the morning of January 1, 2022. They found the bodies of 27-year-old Jeanette Gallegos and 28-year-old J Stash.


Jeanette had multiple gunshot wounds on her body and authorities suspect the rapper shot her before killing himself. According to Lt. Derrick Alfred:

“Right now, the evidence at the scene and the preliminary information we have from the children in the home is that it’s a murder-suicide.”

A firearm was found at the scene and authorities removed Gallegos' three children from the home. While it's not confirmed, a few reports suggest that the popular artist and Jeanette were dating.
