REMEMBER Nahomi
Nahomi Valentina Cittadini
22 YEARS OLD ·
Miami,
Florida
with her as bright, joyful, beautiful, and deeply caring. Friends described her as someone whose laugh was contagious, who brought joy to the people around her, and who made sure others never felt alone or left behind. Those who knew Nahomi affectionately called her “Lulu” and have continued sharing memories of her while advocating for accountability in her death.
Public records provide limited traditional biographical information about Nahomi, but community remembrance provides a much fuller picture of who she was to the people who knew her.
Friends who grew up with Nahomi remembered years of happy and funny memories with her and described her as a “bright light” and an amazing person. Others remembered her as full of life and joy, with a contagious laugh and an ability to make people around her feel included. Community tributes repeatedly refer to Nahomi affectionately as Lulu.
Because these descriptions come from community remembrance rather than independently verified biographical records, they should remain presented as memories from those who knew her rather than objective biographical facts.
THE RECORD
Nahomi had an on-and-off relationship with Lorent Junior Pion. Her mother reported that Nahomi had been trying to move on from the relationship and that Pion continued appearing where she was, including following her to New York.
The relationship also had a documented history of physical violence. Newly released surveillance footage from an earlier August 2024 Miami Beach incident showed Pion physically attacking Nahomi months before her death. That incident resulted in his arrest on a battery charge and a court order directing him to stay away from her.
RELATIONSHIP CONTEXT
Acquaintance
Nahomi had an on-and-off relationship with Lorent Junior Pion. Her mother reported that Nahomi had been trying to move on from the relationship and that Pion continued appearing where she was, including following her to New York.
The relationship also had a documented history of physical violence. Newly released surveillance footage from an earlier August 2024 Miami Beach incident showed Pion physically attacking Nahomi months before her death. That incident resulted in his arrest on a battery charge and a court order directing him to stay away from her.
PATTERNS DOCUMENTED IN AVAILABLE RECORDS
These indicators reflect what could be established from available sources. Absence from this list does not establish that a behavior did not occur.
LEGAL / SYSTEM RESPONSE
There was documented criminal-justice intervention months before Nahomi's homicide. NBC Miami obtained surveillance footage from an August 2024 incident in Miami Beach showing Pion physically attacking Nahomi. Pion was arrested in connection with that assault, and a stay-away order was issued.
Despite that earlier intervention, Nahomi was killed in December 2024. Pion was later charged with second-degree murder in connection with her death.
INFORMATION LIMITATIONS
The available record now provides unusually strong documentation of prior physical IPV because an earlier assault was captured on surveillance footage and resulted in criminal-justice intervention. Family accounts provide additional information concerning separation, stalking behavior, and alleged threats.
Public comments associated with Nahomi's case also contain claims about the relationship that have not been independently verified. Those comments should not be used to establish factual case-history details solely because the commenter claims personal knowledge of Nahomi, Pion, or his incarceration.
TRANSPARENCY / RECORD NOTE
The documented history preceding Nahomi's death includes an August 2024 physical assault captured on surveillance video, Pion's subsequent arrest, and a court-issued stay-away order. Additional accounts from Nahomi's mother describe her efforts to leave the relationship and Pion's continued pursuit of her. Some further allegations about the relationship appear in family advocacy materials and community comments; where those claims have not been independently corroborated, they should remain attributed or excluded from the factual case record.
