On February 2, 2018, 16-year-old Kevon Watkins faced connectivity issues while attempting to play Xbox games in his family's Georgia home.

In an effort to improve the speed, he decided to change the Wi-Fi password to prevent others from logging on and potentially slowing down the service during his gaming sessions.

Following this, a confrontation between Kevon and his mother unfolded, escalating to a point where his older sister, Alexus, stepped in to prevent Kevon from physically harming their mother. 


Tragically, instead of de-escalating the situation, Kevon placed Alexus in a chokehold and refused to release her despite pleas from his younger brother and mother. By the time the police arrived, the situation had taken a devastating turn. Her brain had been starved from oxygen resulting in extreme damage. 

Alexus was quickly rushed to hospital but unfortunately didn’t survive the injury. Kevon was tried and sentenced to life imprisonment for the tragic incident.
