Yes, President Coin dies in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2.
She is assassinated by Katniss Everdeen during what was supposed to be the public execution of President Snow. Katniss, instead of shooting Snow, turns her arrow on Coin, who was then the interim President of Panem.
Several factors contribute to Katniss’s decision to kill Coin:
- Suspected Involvement in Prim’s Death: Katniss suspects Coin orchestrated the bombing that killed her sister, Prim, and other children.
- Concerns about Coin’s Leadership: Katniss comes to believe that Coin would be no better than Snow as a leader, potentially continuing the Hunger Games, [according to MSN].
- Preventing Further Tyranny: Katniss’s actions are driven by a desire to prevent the establishment of a new oppressive regime under Coin.
Coin’s death leads to an emergency election, and Commander Paylor becomes the first democratically elected president of Panem.
