The instigator of the 2005 murder of Nicole duFresne on the Lower East Side was sentenced to six years in jail yesterday in State Supreme Court. Audrey Evans, who is 18, pleaded to first-degree robbery for her role in the shooting. Evans' boyfriend, Rudy Flemming was sentenced to life, without the possibility of parole, late last year for killing duFresne, 28. One of the things that apparently prompted the shooting was the happiness of duFresne and her friends, who were out celebrating her new job. Even before seeing duFresne's group, Evans said that she would hit the next person she saw. Prior to being shot, witnesses accounts report that duFresne told Flemming, "What are you going to do, shoot us?" duFresne's fiancee said yesterday the question wasn't a dare, but an attempt to reason with Flemming.
Before sentencing, Evans apologized to duFresne's family, "My most sincerest apologies. If I could take it all back I most sincerely would. No matter what I say, it won't bring back your daughter, your sister, your fiancee. I wish I could take it all back. I really do apologize. I hope the family accepts my apology. Thank you." Besides being the instigator in the shooting, Evans also hid the weapon Flemming used in the shooting.
duFresne's mother, Linda addressed the court saying, "Ours is a sentence of life without Nicole." She also quoted a professor of duFresne, "Humanity, not just those who knew her, suffered a great loss when she died."

Ultimate hipster irony. What are you going to do, shoot us? Bang!!
It belongs on their stupid tshirts.
Oh no, it was to a dare!
I don't really feel that much great a loss. In reality, it was just one less snooty snobby white bitch.
Seriously, people - not cool.
Alcohol impairment was probably an issue too...
Wow, you guys are harsh, and this is me saying that.
Too bad this chick didn't get more time. Another case of minorities angry at the happiness of whities.
Nobody misses this bitch - thanks Rudy Flemming!
Humanity: clearly loves white women but can't get one with his low self-esteem. Maybe there's a fat one with equally low self esteem that might bed you. Look there.
just another entitled white person.
her comeupence came that night. some humility would of helped.
She's snobby why, because she had a job and didn't commit crimes? Sorry if us snobby people are trying to live our lives and work in this city without being attacked by wild animals.
Jesus fucking christ, can you all just please SHUT UP FOR ONCE? Every, every, every every, every, every, EVERY EVERY GOD DAMN TIME Gothamist has some crime-related topic, you trolls come on here and spew nonsense that we all know you would never have the balls to say in real life. You just hide behind your stained undershirts, greasy hair and crumb-filled keyboards, jerking off to the thought of writing snide responses to Gothamist posts. Please just go away.
I wish I was still alive but I had to open up my big fat mouth - I felt somebody should after my BF ran away and peed himself. He is a little homo in case you didn't know so I HAD to fend for myself. If I was just back in my natural milieu, spending all my money on self indulgent art "projects", passing the time with the other young, pretentious elites ... for shame.
Hey dufresnescorpse (you're so edgy) so you're saying some people deserve to be mugged and should just hand over their cash? Besides, she was an aspiring actress and bartender, I doubt she was spending her weekends in the Hamptons. Why don't certain "people" just get jobs and then they wouldn't have to steal.
Anyone who knew this girl wil tell you she was a pushy snob who had an attitude with EVERYONE and most definitely brought this on herself. She didn't deserve to die but she should have thought twice before playing "tough" with someone who had nothing to lose. One.
Huh - and people say city living makes us lose sight of our common humanity.
Hope you douchebags keep your cool when the gun is pointed at you.
even without the "drunk card" nobody deserves to die because of "mouthiness" - she didn't threaten their lives in any way, so it's not even REMOTELY self defense or anything even a little bit arguable. they pick a fight with people because they looked happy? give me a fucking break, that anyone can even begin to point the finger at the victim is beyond any rationale.
M: NO! Don't give up your parent's $! They worked hard to give it to you! When someone points a gun at you, sass them a bit, test that ass! They could be a punk and you could get some street cred with your friends, just like I have now - I'm the girl who faced down a .38 and lived to tell the tale! It's just my ass is rotten and smelly now, six feet under and worm eaten. Oh wait. They burned me. Fucker's burned me - but I've got the baddest ashes on the block!
This whole thread grosses me out.
I am truly sad for all of you. Your lives must be really ugly and empty with these thoughts in your hearts. I hope that things improve, but if you choose to approach life in this fashion, you are likely to receive more of the same ugliness.
New York is one of the worst places to live in the world. Please fall into the ocean.
Thanks.
dufresnescorpse, way to avoid my point (she wasn't rich). You are very quick to defend violent street crime; is there something you want to confess to us and get off your chest? (and since I said "chest" you can now make a joke about a bullet going through one...LOL!!!!!!....tool)
M:Why would you say that about me? You know I wasn't one of these poor, pathetic minorities that my BF is still scared of! SHIT. Go donate to my memorial fund, you know, the one set up for me at the elite liberal art school in Boston where yearly tuition is just as tad more expensive than Yale? They don't even let minorities on campus there!
HA HA, dufresnescorpse, got you all P'wnd!
that entitled bitch got what's coming to her. I wish I knew where she was buried so I could fuck every hole in her body.
Are you an angry minority or a guilty white person?
No one cares about your generic, hippie bulls**t rants about "the elite." Instead of blaming the victim why don't you start a blog about what your real issue is, which is that you don't like people who went to college. (It's ok, because we look down on you anyway).
M: What do you mean, you know I'm an angry white person, the angriestist - AND I DO LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE! The last one I saw on earth, I couldn't believe he had the audacity to shoot me! How rude, didn't he know his place? They should lock up all the people without college degrees and lily white dreams of fame and fortune, make the world safe for people like you and me M! XXOO
this thread is just another example of why the internet is worthless
The great thing about the internet is how it brings people together who otherwise might not have this kind opportunity for connection and understanding. Good job, guys; thanks to your insightful and bravely anonymous commentary, we're just a heartbeat away from true world peace, and it's gonna happen right here on this board.
This board is oddly arousing! It's pompous holier than thou dickheads versus ironic hipsters douchebags. I'm jerking off to it
Cho, don't you mean,
I'm jerking off to it!
while you're doing that, how bout a facial on old nicole there.
FACE!
Dear Humans,
Please kill me.
Love,
The Internet
Alright, all these comments aside, people should realize that nyc is definitely not some white person playground. real people live there. don't mouth off to them just because you feel entitled to do so.

trolls.
"people should realize that nyc is definitely not some white person playground. real people live there. don't mouth off to them just because you feel entitled to do so"
wtf is this matty you goddamn fool.
So people who shoot other people during an attempted robbery are "real" while people that mind their own business laughing with their freinds aren't?
You're a dsigrace to humanity, and your a bigot too.
The stats: African Americans are about 13% of the U.S. population and commit about 50% of the murders in the U.S.
Nicole duFresne was not a hipster and was not wealthy. If she was wealthy, she wouldn't be working until 1 a.m. in the morning. Then again, all us white folks look alike to the thug scum we can't seem to flush out of our city.
That's what people who feel entitled get.
what she needs is a straightening out by Alec Baldwin. spoiled, entitled, undisciplined brats,
no matter what age.
Us "scum" will be here forever, you think the Cops will protect you when TSHTF? They're out in riverhead and spring valley or staten island.
You're stuck with us "scum" in the projects.
Hmmmmm, I guess the lesson here is watch what you say to certain people you met out on the street . From the stories point of view she's irked this girl into shooting her by her comment . It's like painting a "bulls-eye" on your forehead and expecting the bull not to respond ! Maybe if she had just kept her opinions too herself she would still be here . Maybe those girls would have just beat her up or something like that . We'll never know now will we ! #[11] "GOAWAY" I don't know if you realized this.....but this is a site that caters to those who enjoy posting comments . I believe that was the point intended by the folks who created this site . While I agree with your comment in hind sight, I don't agree in foresight . If I say that I would have done something different out in the street, Then that's what would have happened . Have I ever had a gun pointed at my head ? Nope, Have I ever had someone shooting at me ? Yes Would I have reacted the way this woman did with someone pointing a gun at my head ? Hell No ! You have to think from a sensible point of view here . Someone has a gun pointed at your head and you can't do anything about it that wouldn't result in that person pulling the trigger . What do you do ? You give them what they want and pray for the best possible result . That would be living to tell the story another day . The key word here is ""LIVING"", You don't antagonize your captures with bravado ! Apparently she thought she could intimidate them and found out otherwise . RIP
cho sum hu,
the only shit that will ever hit the fan is you getting mad at your xbox like all of the other simians who spend their entire lives sitting in front of the tv with your jaw slacked, open, drooling.
Looks like I got whitey angry. Now he go whack off his tiny wee wee then get drunk.
all goes according to plan
hah ahaha hah ha ha
Thank you all for your support
