Dwan Diondro Wakefield, 17, DāAllen Washington, 17, and Bryon McBride Jr., 19, are all in custody and will all be charged with capital murder for the heinous killing of 6-year-old Kingston Frazier, said Madison County District Attorney Michael Guest.
Kingston was last seen about 1:15 a.m CST, Thursday morning in the parking lot of a Kroger grocery store in Jackson, Miss. His mother, Ebony Archie, left him asleep in her Toyota Camry while she briefly went inside of the store.
While Archie was inside, two men in a two-door 2014 Honda Civic Coupe (Wakefieldās, Washingtonās, and McBrideās exact roles in Kingstonās murder have not been revealed), pulled alongside her Camry and the man in the passenger seat jumped into Archieās car and drove away with Kingston inside.
At 9:47 a.m. CST, approximately nine hours after Kingston was abducted, the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation canceled the Amber Alert sent out for him just as reports began to trickle in that he had even found.
As previously reported by The Root, initial reports were that Kingston had been found, but his condition was unknown.
As the news spread of Kingstonās death, his mother, Ebony Archie, collapsed and screamed, āI told yāall that sāt wasnāt right, I told yāall.ā
Other family members, including aunts, uncles, and Kingstonās grandfather, Walter Williams, began to scream and cry out in pain.
David Archie, Kingstonās uncle, remembered his nephew as a loving, funny, playful, just āgreat, greatā child who knew just how much he was loved. ā[We] just canāt imagine that something like this would happen, that people would have in their heart to do that to a 6-year-old,ā Archie said. āEven if I was mad at the world, I couldnāt do this to a 6-year-old. To me, itās hatred. There is nothing out there worth taking a 6-year-oldās life.ā
