Deion Robair was 16 and a student at George Washington Carver Collegiate Academy when he was fatally shot in New Orleans on Wednesday, March 19, 2014. A member of the school’s football team and known to friends as Spanky or Duke, he had been baptized at Greater New Life Church. The shooting was carried out by a friend, another teenager; specifics about what led to the shooting remain unclear in the aftermath.

The teen arrested in connection with Deion’s death, Caheim Johnson, later pleaded guilty to negligent homicide, acknowledging a lack of intent but accepting responsibility for the careless actions that caused the fatal outcome. He was sentenced to five years in prison. Deion’s mother, grandparents, siblings and extended family continue to mourn the loss of a young life and promising athlete.
