Kenosha DA Mike Graveley decided to charge Franklin with the second count of murder for the death of Honesti Prather, the victim, Amiah Prather and Franklin’s unborn daughter. Many in the community wondered if Graveley would charge for the baby’s death, as he is pro-abortion and signaled he would not prosecute abortions after the Roe v. Wade decision being overturned. When Amiah arrived at the hospital, doctor’s realized she was 8-months pregnant and performed an emergency c-section, but unfortunately, Honesti didn’t survive.

Sgt. Barriere of the Kenosha Police Department arrived to the scene of the shooting first. Sgt. Barriere observed a silver GMC Acadia that was later found to be registered to Amiah Prather. Upon approaching the vehicle, Sgt. Barriere observed a woman, who was later identified as Amiah, slumped over the driver’s seat towards the front passenger seat. Amiah was unconscious and Sgt. Barriere observed a large amount of blood. Sgt. Barriere observed a gunshot wound to the right side of Amiah’s head. Sgt. Barriere, a military veteran, attempted live saving efforts and Amiah was transported by rescue to Froedtert South Pleasant Prairie hospital. During the course of Amiah’s treatment there it was determined that Amiah was approximately 8 months pregnant. An emergency C-section was performed. Amiah’s unborn baby, who she had named Honesti, did not survive and was pronounced deceased at Froedtert Pleasant Prairie hospital.

Amiah suffered multiple facial fractures and a subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Amiah’s sister, who called 9-1-1 was on scene to answer questions from police. She stated that the person who shot Amiah was Lawrence Franklin, her boyfriend of several years. Amiah’s sister told police that Franklin had been drinking and the three of them were spending the day together and Amiah and Franklin were arguing for most of the day.

Amiah’s sister stated that they were all in Amiah’s silver GMC Acadia to go and get food. Amiah’s sister was in the front passenger seat. Franklin was sitting behind Amiah who was driving.

Amiah’s sister stated that prior to leaving a male who she did not know was outside and told Amiah she was cute. Amiah’s sister said that angered Franklin who said he was going to go do something and began walking towards the male, but then came back. Amiah’s sister stated that they then drove away southbound. Amiah’s sister said she had her headphones in. Amiah’s sister stated that they stopped at about 65th Street and 12th Avenue when she took her headphones out and she heard Amiah say that if Franklin was not going to pay for her food then he should get out of the car.

Amiah’s sister stated that she saw Franklin rolling down the back window and thought he was going to reach his arm out the window so he could open the door to get out. Amiah’s sister stated that she then heard a loud nose and saw smoke. Amiah’s sister stated that her ears were ringing. When Amiah’s sister looked over, Amiah was slumped over with blood coming out of her head. Amiah’s sister indicated that she assumed Amiah had been shot. Amiah’s sister stated that she did not see Franklin with a gun and she did not see him shoot Amiah, but there was no one else in the car with her and Amiah. Amiah’s sister stated that she exited the vehicle and ran, fearing for her life. Amiah’s sister was able to get to a nearby house and call 911.

There were nearby witnesses who saw the shooting, and Franklin running away from the car. Franklin was also on video from witnesses and nearby businesses and homes. A bottle of Remy Martin and a gun were located. Police learned that the gun was purchased the same day from Paddock Lake Sporting Goods by a woman named Kaliyah Patterson. Surveillance videos showed that Franklin was with her when she bought the gun. The video also confirmed that the defendant provided Kaliyah with a credit card to purchase the firearm.

An officer spoke to Nimah Franklin, the defendant’s sister. She had come to the scene of the shooting because she spoke to her mother, who said she received a phone call from Franklin who said, “You’ll never see me again.”

Franklin is still on the run and is considered armed and dangerous.

    1. Its funny how so many are obsessed with the illegal aliens but no one is talking much about these domestic terrorist running around like the kid who shot up the school and the lunatic running around in Kentucky killing folks not all illegal aliens are armed and dangerous oh and your government that you trust so much and vow by is letting them in..society is such idiots i laugh at y ‘all daily Thank you so much for the entertainment

      1. You mean the trannies committing shootings? I dunno I’d talk to the people in Ohio we are reporting about the illegals stealing their pets and local ducks etc and eating them… Do you have pets???

        13
        20
              1. Racist how exactly? Is it racist to point out a problem in a community that happens to involve people of color. If these folks were German or Italian, would it be racist? Go put your head back in your ass.

              1. Oh OK. So if someone posts a personal account or report on Twitter it’s not credible? What if they post same info in FB, Instagram, TikTok, is that credible? Or maybe they do a FB live?

              2. Whatever happened to “you can’t trust everything you read on the internet”? No, personal accounts are not credible. Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram, TikTok, etc. are NOT CREDIBLE SOURCES OF INFORMATION. You understand anyone can make an account and post whatever they want, right??

              3. “Personal accounts are not credible”. Really? I suppose we should just put our trust into the objective media instead and wait for them to feed us pur daily narrative. Sure…

        1. There were bomb threats in Springfield, OH today because of these crazy conspiracy theories. What you are saying is false, dangerous, hateful, and, most of all, just plain stupid.

          7
          1
            1. “Do your own research” aka “Google things that adhere to your viewpoint”. There’s was no evidence of this, and opening an investigation still does not mean they have evidence. Do your own thinking, and eat a dick.

              1. So the AG of Ohio CA. “eat a dick” because he is opening a case about something with NO EVIDENCE? ok man. I’m sure AGs do that a lot. 👌

      2. I fully support tough mandatory sentences on child rapists and human traffickers.

        By contrast, as Attorney General of California, Kamala Harris redefined child sex trafficking, assault with a deadly weapon, and rape of an unconscious person as “nonviolent crimes.”

        Donald J Trump.

  1. The sister’s statement doesn’t make sense. He was sitting behind the victim, and while she saw him roll down the window, she didn’t see a gun or him shooting. Additionally, the victim was hit on the right side, but it’s impossible to extend your arm out the window and strike someone on the right side of their head. I’m confused by this.

  2. Wow the comment section here is slime. What’s up with all the conspiracy theories? A girl was murdered – we should be talking about how we can find this guy and how we can prevent these things from happening in the future.
