12:35 PM PT -- Kobe's daughter Gianna Maria Onore -- aka GiGi -- was also on board the helicopter and died in the crash ... reps for Kobe tell TMZ Sports. She was 13.
We're told they were on their way to the Mamba Academy for a basketball practice when the crash occurred. The Academy is in nearby Thousand Oaks. https://www.tmz.com/


Is this the girl on the linked video?

Radio is reporting all four daughters were on board, but I can't find anything to corroborate that at this time.

What false info and speculation?

They knew how many people were on the chopper and who they were. That’s all the pertinent info, really.

Kobe famously commuted to laker games and elsewhere by private chopper. This was just a tragic accident.

Never fly in helicopters. They have a single point of failure: the Jesus Nut, that holds the main rotor to the rotor mast. It's called the Jesus Nut because if it fails, you are going to see Jesus.
