Daughter of Juvenile Killed by Her Older Brother


Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr., a 17-year-old, has been charged with the murder of his mother and two sisters. One of the girls was the daughter of the rapper Juvenile.

The victims were identified as Joy Deleston, 39, and her two daughters, Micaiah, 11, and Jelani, 4.

Ms. Deleston was a Gwinnett County Sheriff's Deputy. Juvenile, whose real name is Terius Gray, is 32 years old.

To avoid any conflict of interest, Deleston's son was taken to a different jail in DeKalb County, rather than the jail in Gwinnett, where his mother worked. Prosecutors cannot seek the death penalty because of the boy's age.

Police came to the home after receiving a 911 call about shots being fired. They entered the home and the 17 year old arrived to the house 35 minutes later. After talking with deputies, he was arrested.

Juvenile has been arrested a few times himself. He has been charged with failure to pay child support, resisting arrest and a few other things. However, many of the charges against Juvenile were dismissed.
