His mother worked for Safe Streets, hiring people with criminal histories to prevent shootings in the area. As a result, he was probably aware of the city’s status as one of America’s deadliest.
The driven student planned on attending Baltimore City Community College. He and his nephew were inseparable: The two wrote rap songs about life in the city and also played basketball together, playing on the same recreational team over the summer.
