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."

76. If the IRS can track down taxpayers for 50 dollars or less they didn't pay. they can start making these baby daddies pay child support so the txpayer doesn't have to. and watch the population explosion go down when they hound the baby daddies like the hound the taxpayer for money. alot of these disturbed individuals won't be born.

77. This just breaks my heart. I'm so sorry for the families of these little girls and their mother. I know what it is like to loose a child. It is hard enough to have to live without your child but to have them brutally murdered is just something I can't imagine. I would like to send the families involved my deepest sympathies. I'll be praying for them.

78. The guy who shot him should be described as a 17 year old and not a 17 year old boy. He is actually a monster for doing such a horrific thing, but TMZ your writers need to watch their words.

80. Seriously? A boy kills his mama and sisters? No way.
Sounds more like something a rapper would do, or hire someone to do, to get out of paying child suppport, and framing the deed on the 17 year old. What kind of defense is this boy going to get? None. Because who cares? Perfect scapegoat. Perfect crime.

81. #5, sherricheu:

How thoughtful and compassionate of you!

Let me guess. You're one of those who believe poor little Matilda is "better off" now that Heath Ledger is dead.

Grow up, ignorant people who cannot even spell "losers" really should keep their uninformed, shallow thoughts to themselves and spare the rest of us the ordeal of having to wade through nonsensical garbage in order to read the posts of the intelligent people on this site.

84. Yes, white's murder people too... but we don't sit there and have Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson come to their rescue and riot. We believe they deserve just punishment.

85. Juvenile was nothing but a "baby daddy". I do not feel bad for him in the least. I feel bad for the people in this little girls life who truly loved and cared for her that will never see her again.
