Tyre Sampson was identified as the boy who died earlier this month after falling from ICON Park’s Orlando FreeFall rollercoaster. However, an Orlando strip club has recently fired a lady claiming to be Tyre Sampson’s cousin.

Shay Johnson recently spoke with CNN and local Orlando media about the fatal accident that was captured on video and shared widely on social media. The Sampson family has come forward to refute any claims that Johnson is related to them. In order to obtain clout and money, the random woman linked herself to the fatal tragedy.

Since the family separated themselves from Johnson, her employer Topless Go Go, has fired her. The Orlando strip club posted on Instagram, “We have separated our selfs from this individual that goes by multiple names she’s no longer welcomed her,”

Earlier this week, a family member shared on Facebook:

Tyre Sampson’s real GoFundMe account has been shared by the family. People are still rallying around the Sampson family, ensuring that they have adequate space to grieve.
