TikTok star Ophelia Nichols tragically lost her 18-year-old son, Randon Lee, to gun violence and more details surrounding his death have been revealed.
On Tuesday, Nichols posted another TikTok video giving an update and shared that through this process they found out a lot of stuff they ājust didnāt know.ā
āWhen your children live out on their own and pay their own bills and they have a good job ⦠it just donāt cross your mind that they would be doing anything to get themselves into trouble,ā she said.
Romans 12:19 says, āDo not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for Godās wrath, for it is written: āIt is mine to avenge; I will repay,ā says the Lord.ā
Nichols wrote a comment to one of her followers which reads, āWe do believe we know who it was. Canāt say names yet BUT I believe the lord will make a way for Justice.ā
Prichard Detective Jason Hadaway spoke in a press conference on Monday through Fox10News about the Crime.
He said that both the suspect and the victim āpulled up at the (gas) pumpsā in Prichard, Alabama and the suspect āin the black vehicleā got inside the victimās vehicle and there was one shot. The suspect got out of the victimās vehicle with a handgun and got back in his black vehicle and ātook off.ā
The victim, Lee, then ādrove across Saint Stephens Roadā to another gas station to rest. EMS was called to the scene and tried to perform āmedical treatment to him.ā However, they were unsuccessful and Lee succumbed to his injuries, Hadaway explained.
He also said that Lee āwas selling narcoticsā to two people and that there were narcotics found inside the vehicle āwhen the Crime scene unit processed the scene.ā
Hadaway assured that they āhave multiple suspects at this timeā but will not release names.
On Sunday, in a TikTok video made by Leeās mother, Nichols ā also known as Mama Tot on TikTok ā pleaded with her 7.6 million followers to help her find her sonās killer.
The caption reads, āYou will be found! You will reap what you sow in this world. You may not be caught now but its coming. I hope you see my sons (sic) face eveyday of your life.ā
āThis individual took my sonās life.ā Nichols said in tears. āHe was just 18 years old, thatās part of somebodyās life. And I know theyāre out there. Theyāre out there living and breathing when my sonās dead.ā
