The two sisters of Florind Belli who want to take custody of the children have collected 28,310 dollars through donations on Gofundme until Thursday morning. The total amount they requested from the public is 50,000 euros, and with the announcement that was made just 13 hours ago, it seems they are on the right track.
The couple Ornela Shehi and Florind Belliu left behind two minor sons ( 6 and 2 years old ), Schwibe and Rayan. GoFundMe is an online platform where individuals, groups or organizations can request and collect funds for certain activities and occasions.
The aunts are seeking custody of the children at a time when it is not yet clear how they both ended up thrown from the sixth floor balcony.
The two tracks of the investigation are the double suicide with premeditation of the couple, and the murder of the woman (who was pregnant) by Florindi, and then jumping from the balcony of the sixth floor voluntarily after the committed act, of this last. The investigators, while continuing their work, say that there were no signs of suicide in the couple's house, while they have established that Ornela "fell" first from the balcony.
The version of a joint suicide, - at the time when Ornela, pregnant, was mentally healthy -, is getting darker and darker. The event happened on August 7 in New York, where the couple was found dead under the balcony in the backyard of the house where they lived in New York.
