A vengeful aspiring rapper opened fire on the wrong Dallas home last week, killing a 9-year-old girl instead of the rival artist he intended to shoot, police said.
"She was sitting in her house. She felt safe. She was 9 years old. She would've started school today," Williams said at a briefing on Thursday."Those are the people that don't think about safety because -- as adults, as parents, as police officers -- we're supposed to make them safe. As community leaders, we're supposed to make them safe."
Police did not release the intended target's name, but they said he lived in the apartment next door to Brandoniya.
This is so sad and it pisses me off!! Stop with the fucking killing over nonsense!!! 🤬🤬🤬
Where is BlackLivesMatter for this
Wow, Report Just Out! Google manipulated from 2.6 million to 16 million votes for Hillary Clinton in 2016 Election! This was put out by a Clinton supporter, not a Trump Supporter! Google should be sued. My victory was even bigger than thought! JudicialWatch
This is why there should be an immediate Capital Punishment upon having overwhelming evidence of being guilty. No line, waiting for years you get axed within weeks. There's no deterant anymore, jail is a cake walk. Three meals a day with a roof along with other amenities. smh
Perhaps we should talk about the rap/gangsta culture being a problem? Or did the gun decide to go shoot up this house all by its of as well?
take our U.S. Army & go door to door & check for weapons if you do not have the proper paperwork fined 5,000 weapon taken. Also this will find kidnapped children, stop trafficking, shut down drug houses and gang activities. Open your doors be transparent! GUN CONTROL IS NEEDED
BLACK PEOPLE, 🙄
It's always those aspiring rappers.
Did you mean he's a Rapper-American?
A name check would have stopped this gun violence! Right?
Ban all rap
Black terrorism
RIP sweet girl...
😡😡😡😡😡
What in the absolute fuck is going on in America? Some blokes shooting each other over their rap rivalry. And how in the fuck do you accidentally shoot a kid instead of a grown man, unless he was there to end MattyB, in that case, it would be okay.
CoryBooker BernieSanders KamalaHarris Will you stop this horrible stuff?
Obviously there was no good guy with a gun around.
Guns kill people in America everyday!
Don't care.
Wait, you mean your other narrative that only WHITE males shoot innocent people isn't true?
aspiring rapper
Well let’s hope they’re putting the gun in jail. Isn’t this a hate crime? Hope Al Sharpton is going to show up along with Pelosi & Schumer to condemn this. They should blame Trump along with the gun. A little girl is dead, isn’t that enough to sadden anybody?
trutsle 'artist'
What scum. Throw the book at this murderer
RIP 🙏
“The gun went off”
Stop saying 'aspiring rapper' and instead simply state a**hat!
No excuses.
Not so aspiring anymore...
Show them we’ll be tough on gun crime and put him in prison for his natural life.
There should be no bail especially if a child has been murdered.
Sounds like more 'white supremacy' gun violence, huh?....address gun violence outside of race. It does not discriminate. Poor girl. More misogyny from the rap world glorifying the abuse of females tragically exemplified here. Get out of the rap game and hustles and WORK.
God damnit video games... You did it again
Ban Rap
Ok is he a rapper or a murderer
Damn! I hate when I do that! 😡
You make that sound like it would have been a legitimate killing had he taken out the rival rapper! LOL!
Rap music is so wholesome ... and family-friendly.
This is despicable and beyond unacceptable. Throw the book at this Soundcloud rapper.
Death penalty
Because there was a right home to open fire on?
Murder of a child and this guy gets a bail bond set by the judge! He should get no bond!!!
Is this even a crime in Dallas? CityOfDallas
🙏🏽😢 so sad
My heart aches for the family ! Senseless .
Cowards and guns
He should receive death but that won't happen because the bleeding hearts would rather waste tax payers money on keeping this waste of oxygen alive. Maybe he'll get lucky and get on rock breaking crew OH wait the bleeding hearts feel hard labor if cruel punishment.
ANY Dallas home is a WRONG home to fire on to kill!
When it even socially acceptable to go after a rival artist with a firearm? Where does this kind of behavior come from?
headdunks What the fuck
🤬
The results of another gun in the wrong hands.
People suck and they’re everywhere. It doesn’t matter what color the bullet was,this child should not be dead. Our society has fallen into stress and despair that we would behave in this manner.
These are the silent terriorist we never talk about but God forbid any of the democraps do. So we lose another beautiful life to gun violence we don't talk about! Was this gun legally obtained?Did he have a rap sheet? Where the police aware of this feud? Innocent family suffers!
Was he an angry white male nationalist supremacist?
Ahh,I remember when it was east coast vs west coast rappers. Memories
Tragedy 🙏
—What a tragedy. Poor little girl, a whole life ahead of her. Such a bright and lovely smile. Blessings to family and DallasPD thanks for doing y’all job. 🇺🇸
So basically, this adorable little girl was killed by an idiot who shouldn’t have had access to Twitter or Facebook, let alone a gun.
This world is disgusting Smfh condolences to that innocent girl’s family
So basically, at this adorable little girl was killed by an idiot who shouldn’t have had access to Twitter or Facebook, let alone a gun.
That whole keeping it real thing...
This is why rappers get a bad reputation. The music promotes violence.
This is how they deal with competition? GunControlNow
'aspiring rappers' commit over 50% of the murders despite being only 13% of the population
When is rap and hip hop going to be declared a Domestic Terrorist Group?
This is some of the stupidest shit I've ever had the displeasure to read
very typical behavior not surprised
At least it’s not a school or Walmart, right?
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Honest mistake.
All street thugs are aspiring rappers
Dark gonna dark
People kill people not guns... 😤
GunControlNow
I suppose people will riot over this wrongful death of a child, right?
We are our own worst enemies and can’t be saved until we change our mindset!!!
'aspiring rapper' 😂
Sounds about white! Oh wait
Sounds about black to me. Smh
BAN assault rappers NOW!!!
Guns are so cool.
I guess that makes it ok❓❓❓❓❓
Google AndrewYang
Add her to Hillary Clinton’s body count
Dallas is outta control. I never knew it🤷🏿♂️👎🏿🤬
Roll on two. One more criminal gone for good. No way to possibly ever hurt anyone again. Forever.
I love how ABC News refers to a murderer of a baby as an aspiring rapper. You also have to appreciate how they said this murderous Thug open fire on the wrong home. You mean there was a right home to open fire on? ABC News should never let interns write its weekend tweets.
Aspiring, well then.
NAZI ABC, defending another killing by a black “aspiring” rapper! Why? Because he isn’t WHITE and doesn’t fit the Nazi agenda! Disgusting! Keep illegal guns out of the hands of violent liberal criminals!
'Aspiring'? 'Aspiring'? Well then. I guess we can just drop those murder charges because he was 'aspiring'. ☹️
BlitzkriegATX 13 doing 50
Rap kills
You misspelled murderous garbage
Animals.
Why am I not surprised this is Texas?
Prayers are with her family. I do hope Tyrese Simmons is put in prison for life without possibility of parole.
Just another day in any given black neighborhood. So violent, so criminal. Almost as if blacks are inherently more greatly disposed towards violence, crime, and problem causing. Search for: 'The color of crime'
This is tragic when will it stop
Lock him up and throw away the key.
We live in a very sad world
An aspiring rapper..... Shot up the wrong house he is so sorry. Are we supposed to feel bad for him now?
Social media rivalry? Seriously?!?!?!! Poor girl! Poor parents! Poor neighborhood! Lord have mercy!!!!!!!
Poor little girl 💔💔💔
I’m sorry but too many hot headed people (& you know who I mean) have possession of guns & use them improperly, taking ⚖️ into their stupid hands, killing INNOCENT people! Give up your guns & repent OR you could be next! 👎👺
How sad that one of the musical genres, in my concept, more universal, expressive and special, is dirty and stained in this way and all by a criminal-murderer who aspired to be a rapper.🤦🏽♂️👎🏽
What the hell is wrong with people? When did shooting someone for every little thing become the normal thing to do? I just don’t get it.
My God be with her family 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤❤❤
Let’s not forget that the biggest mass murder in the US is the senseless killings that takes place every day all over country...
Aspiring rapper? Don’t you mean gang banging thug?
I truly wonder how he’s gonna live on with himself now. The weight of that guilt he’s gonna carry along with him for the rest of his life? I wouldn’t be surprised if it kills him. My heart goes out to her family. God only knows the type of pain they’re in right now...
Those good old classic social media wars
If only she’d been armed...
hosinater Thugs never got 'The Message' from Grandmaster Flash...
AmandaPresto Proof that our education system just isn't working. What is the world coming to when an aspiring rapper can't even read house numbers?
Haters smh!😡
hosinater How many 'rappers' have been murdered or murdered others in the past year? Degenerates.
Is 'Aspiring Rapper' slang for ruthless murderer?
And someone is going to be facing the death penalty
You've got to be a special kind of stupid to let a person you don't like effect you bad enough to turn you into a murderer!!!! SMDH
'Aspiring rapper' - did you mean untalented criminal?
It takes a TRUE COWARD to try to shoot the competition.
Ban rappers.
How sad a rapper? What was he thinking He wasn’t 🥺
He's an 'aspiring' something, that's for sure.
'Rapper murders 9 year old, but OMG he wanted to be a rapper and was really working towards the goal of being a rapper.'
“Aspiring Rapper” how about Human Garbage?
You mean aspiring killer
Will this make it on CNN? Probably not doesn’t fit the narrative.
Rap is a social disease.
Insanity
Black terrorists
Damn racist.
Aspiring rapper? Rival artist?
The aspiring rapper should have realized his career would end if he committed murder. How many children have to die because of stupid people seeking revenge?
Just sad...
Aspiring rapper You mean unemployed thug?
Where’s the marching and “outrage” over this? That poor little girl died. Come on Jesse & Al...
You mean a criminal
I am so sorry for her family, friends and school mates... Horrified by the idiots in this story that lead to the death of this child, this precious child.
AmandaPresto So much stupidity in that sentence. He had a future but let hate take control and now a little girl's future is gone.
I bet his SoundCloud just blew up! Potus is downloading it now! Considering trying to free this rapper also.
Shocking, I always though rappers were such upstanding citizens. At one time they were, now most are garbage gangsters.
Kill him
This is what happens when there is no strong culture of masculinity in a country.
💔😓🛐
Those White Rappers are terrible
Stop the gun fight
Reached out to black lives matter for a comment, get out of my face or I’ll push you down the stairs, sorry that was Frodo form CNN. Black lives matter no comment 😳
BlackSupremacistTerrorism
“Judge. You must understand, my client intended to murder someone entirely different. Clearly this just one big misunderstanding.”
Who cares what the killer wanted to be?
He's a white supremacist, right? I mean, everybody knows they're the violent ones....
An aspiring rapper seriously!! He is a gangster who thought he could be a rapper after he killed is rival. You people are pathetic. Get out of the news business.
What ever happened to a good old scuffle and duke it out... young kids are just a bunch of sissy’s. use your fist to get street cred. It’s easy to pull a trigger.
'An aspiring rapper' killed an innocent girl. It's almost as if there is some toxic thread that runs through rap.
White supremacists strike again...oh wait, never mind.
There's no accounting for stupidity. I hope he never sees the outside of those prison walls again.
thugLife
This is so sad. There was a time the rival meant you worked harder to be 1 . Apparently, not true today.
Animal
Pathetic
That's why ROCK🎸🔊 is better than RAP💩!!!🔫
😱😱
Keep killing each other.. That's what the Dems agenda want they probably dropping guns off on the corner
as Talkmaster says, Culture of Violence. May that poor little girl rest in peace and her family find justice.
Wtf
Stay classy urban culture...
Wow! Poor baby and her family! 🙇🏾♀️
burn him.
Another winner ...
I want to see gun advocates saying on this one. Do you think this would have happened with a knife? He'd stab the wrong person?
Devastating
Illegal guns are a problem.
That’s gotta be embarrassing.
Thug life. Why does this count against regular people who own guns? Let’s start stomping on the thugs who don’t deserve to walk free, much less have a gun.
RIP.😢
Artist? You mean thug?
How about we lose the Aspiring Rapper trope when discussing murder suspects.
