The suspect then allegedly shared disturbing images of his actions to Instagram, before trying to selfishly end his own life. The victim is confirmed to be 17-year-old Bianca Devins by local police, who was thought to have been murdered at her home in Utica, New York, according to an article by Metro. She was a popular Instagrammer with a following of over 35,000 across two accounts. Rumors of the homicide started after suspected perpetrator Brandon Andrew Clark allegedly posted images of her corpse onto his Instagram story. The suspected killer also allegedly posted several dark messages to his story, with one captioned \u201cI\u2019m sorry Bianca\u201d and another \u201cHere comes Hell. It\u2019s redemption, right?\u201d \u2013 the account has since been removed by the company itself. According to a news story from NBC New York, Instagram issued a statement regarding the suspect\u2019s account, stating that it had removed an image from said account for violating its terms of service, and had taken steps to prevent other users from re-sharing the image on the platform. Just what steps were taken, we don\u2019t know. Local Utica news channel WKTV published a news report video, where it was detailed that police had obtained a search warrant for the suspect\u2019s home. Police also requested that if anybody comes across the photographs of the victim on social media, they need to report it to the website host to be taken down. The report then claimed that they spoke to a police officer on the case who detailed how the suspect made the 911 call himself after committing the homicide. The suspected killer is in hospital with severe lacerations after allegedly turning the weapon on himself after the brutal slaying. Another local Utica news station, WIBX950, revealed that police haven\u2019t been able to speak with Clark \u2013 presumably because of his injuries \u2013 and that no charges for the alleged crime have been filed at this time of writing. Police also confirmed that the two had returned from a concert on the night of July 14 and drove to the murder location, where Clark\u2019s vehicle was later found. Bianca\u2019s sister Liv Devins posted a heartfelt message to Instagram, where she said \u201cI hate that I have to write this. I hate knowing you\u2019re not going to ever come back home. You were the best sister anyone could\u2019ve ever asked for.\u201d View this post on InstagramI hate that I have to write this. I hate knowing you\u2019re not going to ever come back home.

Every day I\u2019m going to do my best and I\u2019m going to get through this thing called life and do it all for you. Rest easy, I love you so much forever and always . Another article by WKTV detailed that her family has since released a statement on their loss, saying: \u201cWe are very grateful for the outpouring of love and sympathy we have received from our Friends, Family, Bianca\u2019s Friends and the whole community. Your prayers help to strengthen us through this difficult time. Bianca, age 17, was a talented artist, a loving sister, daughter, and cousin, and a wonderful young girl, taken from us all too soon. She is now looking down on us, as she joins her cat, Belle, in heaven. Bianca\u2019s smile brightened our lives. She will always be remembered as our Princess. Bianca graduated from T. R. Proctor High School this past June and was looking forward to attending MVCC in the fall.\u201d A candlelit vigil is being held for the victim by her family tonight at 8PM in their local town, according to an Instagram story by her sister.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Internet mourns Instagram star Bianca Devins after brutal murder Instagram: beegtfo \/ UnsplashA 17-year-old girl was brutally murdered on the night of July 14 after she\u2019d attended a local concert in Utica, New York.
