Dwan Diondro Wakefield, 17, DâAllen 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 (Wakefieldâs, Washingtonâs, and McBrideâs exact roles in Kingstonâs murder have not been revealed), pulled alongside her Camry and the man in the passenger seat jumped into Archieâs 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 Kingstonâs death, his mother, Ebony Archie, collapsed and screamed, âI told yâall that sât wasnât right, I told yâall.â
Other family members, including aunts, uncles, and Kingstonâs grandfather, Walter Williams, began to scream and cry out in pain.
David Archie, Kingstonâs uncle, remembered his nephew as a loving, funny, playful, just âgreat, greatâ child who knew just how much he was loved. â[We] just canât imagine that something like this would happen, that people would have in their heart to do that to a 6-year-old,â Archie said. âEven if I was mad at the world, I couldnât do this to a 6-year-old. To me, itâs hatred. There is nothing out there worth taking a 6-year-oldâs life.â
