In the summer of 2022, 22-year-old Zlayiah Frazer was killed during a violent incident at a home on Kenosha Street in Harper Woods, Michigan. Welch then allegedly attacked his 70-year-old stepfather, Robert Bray Jr., and Zlayiah Frazer; both of them died from blunt force trauma. Frazer’s one-year-old son was found by police in the backyard and taken to a hospital for care.

After the attacks Welch reportedly barricaded himself inside the residence, fired shots at responding officers, and set a fire before he was taken into custody. Investigators noted a recent history of domestic violence: in June 2022 Welch had been arrested on serious charges for an earlier assault on Frazer that included alleged strangulation, burning, and pouring gasoline on her, and he had been released on bond two days before the July killings.

Does anyone have reliable local details or information about Frazer’s life and the neighborhood that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
