Sakhya Monea Bentley, 12, was fatally shot inside her home on Adel Lane in Riverdale, Georgia. The shooting occurred while a group of children and teenagers were at the residence; Sakhya’s grandmother had briefly stepped out and her mother was out of town. Sakhya’s mother had just ended a FaceTime call in which she scolded her daughter about having boys over, and the shooting happened within minutes of that call. Responding officers and first responders found Sakhya unresponsive; CPR was performed and she was taken to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead.

Clayton County police arrested two teenage boys, ages 13 and 14, charging both with involuntary manslaughter, reckless conduct, and possession of a weapon by a minor. Authorities said both boys were believed to have handled the firearm but that only one of them fired it. The family described deep grief and the mother reiterated those last words of admonition. Who has information about how the teenagers obtained the gun or the events inside the house that night?
