I've been thinking about Akema's incredible bravery and the unimaginable trauma she must be experiencing. Witnessing something so horrific and then reliving it through legal proceedings... I can't even begin to imagine the weight on her shoulders. It's heartbreaking to consider how she might be blaming herself for calling Vernon that night, even though she only did what any daughter would—reach out for help in a terrifying situation. It's crucial for us as a community to show support and compassion for her as she navigates this difficult journey. If anyone knows of any support groups or resources in Brooklyn that could help, please share. Akema and Vernon's family deserve all the support we can offer.

Hey everyone, I’ve been following Vernon Kelly’s case and something that's really been on my mind is the impact of this tragedy on his daughter, Akema. Can you imagine the weight she's carrying, knowing the argument with Jamille escalated in such a way? It’s such a painful reality when a family dispute leads to losing someone you love. I keep thinking about how vulnerable she must have felt in that moment, calling her dad for help. It's just so devastating that something which probably felt so urgent at the time ended in such a tragedy. Akema not only lost her father but had to witness it unfold right before her eyes. I can’t imagine how she’s coping with this trauma. The community really needs to rally around her and her family for support. Has anyone heard if there are any community initiatives or support groups in Brooklyn that are offering counseling for families affected by similar traumatic events? I feel like this is the kind of situation where communal support and understanding are crucial for healing. Let’s keep Vernon’s memory alive and hope for positive changes that address domestic and gun violence. Sending so much love to Akema and the rest of Vernon’s family. ?
