Flag Counter The Political Freakshow • Jessica Ghawi’s final words — her last known...

Jessica Ghawi’s final words — her last known conversation before a coward with a gun took her life Friday morning — were punched out in a light-hearted Twitter exchange with Sporting News NHL writer Jesse Spector, a former editor and sports writer at the Daily News, the banter of two young professionals with similar career aspirations and senses of humor.

As Ghawi sat in Colorado’s Century Aurora 16 Movie Theater, there to see a midnight showing of “The Dark Knight Rises,” she read a Spector tweet intimating he would be waiting at least one more day to see the highly anticipated Batman flick.

“You aren’t seeing it tonight?!” she typed.

“Nope,” Spector said.

“psh. Loser!” she jabbed.

“Which is why you’re tweeting now and not at the movie?” Spector joked.

“MOVIE DOESN’T START FOR 20 MINUTES,” Ghawi said.

“A real fan would be in a better time zone,” Spector said.

Then came chaos and tragedy and Ghawi — whose dream was simply to tell stories — had hers tragically cut short.
