On March 21, 2013, 13-month-old Antonio Santiago was killed in Brunswick, Georgia. Antonio was in a stroller being pushed by his mother, Sherry West, when two teenagers approached in an attempted robbery. After West said she had no money, one teen threatened the baby and then fired a .22-caliber handgun. West was shot in the leg and Antonio was fatally struck between the eyes.

An anonymous tip led police to 15-year-old Dominique Lang on March 22; Lang cooperated and implicated 17-year-old De’Marquise Elkins as the shooter. West later identified Elkins from a lineup of 24 mugshots. A grand jury indicted Elkins on 11 counts, including malice murder, and Lang on seven counts, including felony murder. In August 2013 a jury convicted Elkins on all 11 counts; he was sentenced to life without parole plus an additional 125 years. Lang pleaded guilty to attempted armed robbery and received two years in prison followed by eight years of probation.

Several family members of Elkins were prosecuted for actions after the killing. His mother, Karimah Elkins, was convicted of tampering with evidence and sentenced to 10 years. Katrina Elkins was charged with making a false statement, and Sabrina Elkins pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence.

Did anyone in Brunswick remember seeing the two teens in the area that day or have information about the encounter?
