Earlier this week, Patrick Hedlund at DNAinfo reported that the Sin Sin management refused to allow the sister of the man slain outside the club to create a temporary memorial in his honor.
However, perhaps Sin Sin had second thoughts about the tribute to 37-year-old Devin Thompson, who was shot twice on Second Avenue at East Fifth Street on Aug. 22.... Last night, a memorial was in place on East Fifth Street....
Patrick Hedlund has an update here.

I was glad to see this memorial had gone up this morning. Now I'm sad to see Thompson's face and think that his sister had to go through this. I would not have thought of Sin Sin at all if its owner had not denied her this display of grief. His thoughtlessness and self-centeredness just astounds me.
I took these photos last evening... I walked by again this morning to see if the memorial was still there. It was. To be honest, I expected that someone would have it removed.
