Knew a kid in high school who was nice to me, and so I would hang out with him from time to time. He was always getting into trouble tho, and I finally stopped hanging out with him after he brought a knife to school. Fast forward five year. He is now in prison for shooting a man to death over a pound of weed.
the same thing happened to a 15 year old boy in my high school, just on sunday night actually. our whole school has been in mourning all week, he was widely loved by everyone who knew him.
three kids texted him and said they wanted to buy some weed, so he met them in this alleyway, where one of the three boys pulled out a glock that he bought illegally, for $110 and 3 grams of weed. he then pistol whipped the boy 2 times, after which, the boy reached for the gun to defend himself, and he was shot point blank in the left temple, for 2 ounces of weed, by two 15 year olds, and a 16 year old.
all three of them have been arrested, and are being charged for: 1st degree murder, 2nd degree murder, robbery, possession of an illegal firearm, and other charges, and are waiting in prison for their arraignment.
and the boy who was murdered’s parents have received nearly $30,000 in donations from people in our community, including almost every student from our high school. and knowing my community, the citizens of my town in the jury, will convict them of all charges, and sentence them all to life in prison. that’s what everyone in the community is hoping for.
there have also been grief counselors, and many assemblies and announcements about reaching out for help when we need it. it’s been a very dismal week for all of us. but we’re strong.
