Rapper Juvenile's Daughter Murdered

Posted Feb 29th 2008 6:54PM by TMZ Staff

Cops in Georgia arrested a 17-year-old boy on Friday and charged him with killing his mother, who was a local sheriff's deputy, and his two small sisters. One of those little girls was the daughter of rapper Juvenile.

Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr. allegedly gunned down his mother, Gwinnett County Sheriff's Deputy Joy Deleston, 39, and her two daughters, Micaiah, 11, and Jelani, 4.

Jelani was Juvenile's daughter. In 2003, the rapper, whose real name is Terius Gray, was arrested for abandonment of a dependent child after a DNA test determined he was the father.

Terrell, a sophomore at Central Gwinnett High School, has been charged with three counts of murder and three counts of aggravated assault. He is currently being held in the DeKalb County Jail.

UPDATE: A statement was released to TMZ saying, "Juvenile was extremely saddened to hear the reports. As a private matter he has no further comment."

Yeah thats how I feel when I hear about all of the white people that get gunned down by their "own kind" in schools and at malls.

69. It will be interesting to hear what his reason is for killing his mother and siblings. Sadly when most kids kill thier parents they use the excuse that their parents were "mis-treating" them. But their definition of mistreatment is when thier parents won't let them stay out all hours of the night, or won't let them hang around with bad influences, won't let them smoke weed or other similar reasons. That's what some kids consider "abuse". Even if he "felt" that he had a reason to kill his mother, I can't think of any reason that he could use to justify murdering two young girls. Just evil.

WHAT?!?! This piece of garbage kills his own family-and you're calling people expressing their opinions in here 'evil'??? You've got a pretty twisted worldview pal. Speaking for myself, it isn't a racial issue at all. This kid would be a piece of crap no matter what color he happened to be.

75. This sad incident happened just minutes away from my home. I am shocked by the fact that this young man killed his mother and two little sisters. However, I am more appalled by the hatred and racism being spewed on this strand. I'm a pretty conservative person and I think that what is being typed against this poor mother, who by the way was a sherrif's deputy, and her family is sick. It is just a sad situation and I think deserves a bit more restraint and respect than what some idiots are posting.
