Rex Cameron Stuffy Honors was 14 when he was found dead behind a home on West Crawford Street in Lakeland, Florida, on July 3, 2018. He had been staying at his father’s residence that night because the family was hosting out-of-town relatives. His 21-year-old brother, T.J.

Honors, arrived about 4:20 a.m., found a broken table and an open sliding glass door, and then discovered Rex’s body in a wooded area behind the house. Investigators have identified a person of interest but say they do not yet have enough evidence to file charges. Rex was a Southwest Middle School student remembered for his constant smile, strong math skills, and love of football.
