Thugs Murder Mom In Front Of Little Boy, Then The Unexpected Happens

St. Louis crime scene, where mom was gunned down

Just after midnight on August 12, a 5-year-old little boy was sitting in the back seat of a vehicle with his mother and a male acquaintance at the helm of the car. Safely operating the ride was’t the issue — thugs in St. Louis were, where racism reigns supreme and criminals want to blame white cops for the result of their poor choices. So, when a little boy watched with tears running down his cheeks as his 24-year-old mom and her male friend were murdered in front of him, nobody expected what was about to come next, while preparing for the worst.

Shots had been fired at the mother, Whitney Brown, that fatal night, along with the male companion she was with. Their killer(s) didn’t care that there was a child in the car, and his life would be ruined in an irrational pull of the trigger. The assailant’s vengeance left a little boy motherless, right before his much-anticipated first day of school.

An anonymous male cop and his wife were particularly touched by little Jakeem Brown’s tragic circumstances, which he was innocently forced into and would forever be affected by. The couple couldn’t stand the thought that this boy would suffer more than he already had, not having his mom and needed supplies when he stepped foot into his first day of school, empty and alone, unlike the other kindergartners. That’s when they devised a plan to make sure day one of the rest of this boy’s life would be an honor to his mom.

Along with his wife, the white St. Louis officer, who wanted to remain nameless, picked up this motherless child and asked him what his mom’s favorite color was. The sweet boy told them that she loved green, so the couple and this tiny victim went shopping. The generous cop bought the boy everything he needed to wear to feel comfortable in class. This included sneakers, shirts, and jackets, all in his mother’s favorite color combo of black and green, that would serve as a constant reminder that his mom would always be with him, and no thug could completely take her from him.

The giving didn’t stop at green and black duds. The officer and his wife bought the boy all the supplies he could use, that other kids would arrive with but he wouldn’t have, had it not been for the kindness of this couple.

“You don’t find too many people who would be willing to help somebody going through tragedy,” Jakeem’s grandmother, Erica Jones, said with a heart of gratitude. “His gesture of kindness and gratitude that he showed to my grandson speaks volumes,” she added, with a bigger point than she may have realized when she said it.

This white officer and his wife didn’t see color in this little boy, like the media and race-baiters would like you to believe. That is, unless they are referring to his murdered mom’s favorite color so they could buy him everything he needed in it. Little Jakeem sees people for people too, which is why he cried when his brave friend in blue left for home. This boy wanted to go play with this man’s grandkids regardless of creed, color, or anything else. He knew nothing but the fact that they were led by a heroic couple, and Jakeem wanted to be a part of that. As for his grandmother, she sees it too, telling News 4 that she hopes her community will see that all police officers are not the racist villains they’re made out to be.
