Boy this is a wild ride.
When a 16-year-old girl was shot and killed while working at a Burger King drive-thru in Milwaukee earlier this month, the horrific news reverberated around the nation. Tens of thousands of dollars in donations poured in and Niesha Harris-Brazell’s devastated family wondered how she could be taken “in the blink of an eye.”
But after spending two weeks piecing together events, investigators have made the bombshell allegation in court documents that Harris-Brazell was killed in a botched robbery that she had staged with her best friend and her best friend’s father.
Imagine my shock. Dinduquiesha was working the till, and coordinated a plan with her friend to have her friends father pull through the drive through with a gun and get her to give him all the money. Somehow she got shot.
At this moment you’re probably thinking that her friend’s father just wilded out and shot her. Maybe he panicked when doing the deed. These kinds of things happen with these kinds of people.
As outlined in the court documents, another camera mounted inside the restaurant revealed that the shots were fired from within the Burger King.
As the robbery unfolded and Harris-Brazell called for help, her co-worker, Derrick Ellis, 34, was quick to respond. A criminal complaint filed four days after the shooting alleged that Ellis pulled out a gun, took aim at the thief, and fired two shots. It appears that Harris-Brazell was caught in the crossfire.
According to court documents, surveillance footage captured Ellis apparently panicking as he scrambled to gather the fired casings from the floor of the restaurant afterwards. He was filmed running to the restaurant’s manager, who helped him stow the weapon in the store’s safe.
Ellis then fled the restaurant and has not been seen since. He has been charged with murder. The Burger King manager allegedly told police that Ellis hid the weapon and fled because he’s a convicted felon who isn’t allowed to possess a gun.
So convicted felon Derrick Ellis was carrying a gun on him. He sees Niesha being held up with a gun, and proceeds to whip out his own gun and shoot her. Okay he probably wasn’t trying to shoot her, but still, that’s what killed her.
Though Mariah claimed to police that all three participated in the scheme, Antoine Edwards allegedly claimed that his daughter wasn’t involved, and insisted Harris-Brazell was his only accomplice.
I guess as a father you have to do this for your child, even if nobody believes it. So fine, but let’s see how the parents of the dead girl react to this.
Harris-Brazell’s mom, Liceal Brazell, remained defiant that her daughter wasn’t involved in the scheme that took her life. On Friday, she told FOX6, “It’s really making me mad, it’s making me angry. You told so many different lies, now you’re going to tell more lies. That’s not going to help you. That’s not going to help your father.”
Harris-Brazell’s sister established a GoFundMe to help support the family that has raised over $40,000. Her grandmother, Ida Lane, told FOX6, “Here we are trying to raise a self-sufficient, independent young lady and she’s taken away from us in the blink of an eye.”
Here we are trying to raise a self-sufficient young lady who helps career criminals rob $400 from the till and then other career criminals go and shoot her when she’s working the drive through. The Unsportsmanlike-American problem is out of control.
Negroes: God’s clowns, or the devils depending on the day.
