Young was found dead inside her apartment on July 23 by her mother, with her children inside with her, records show.
Friends say she was four months pregnant.
Young was a beloved mother, daughter and friend and a well-known radio-personality for 106.1 in Jacksonville.
Her accused killer is Bursey Armstrong, the man with whom she had two children and was expecting a third.
"It is just fine to make sure that you say something," said Brooke English, Tasheka's friend.
"This isn't meant to put blame on victims because they are already victimized," said English.
"She didn't deserve that, I don't understand," said Mote.
Kickbacks is located at 910 King St, Jacksonville, FL 32204
