Has anyone else looked into the backgrounds of the victims in the February 15, 2026, tragedy on Milwaukee's north side? I read that Xavier Smith was the one who supposedly pulled the trigger on John Michael Angelo Childress Jr., but I'm really curious about their relationship and what might have triggered such a devastating outcome. From what I gather, John was only 24, practically just starting his adult life. I can't help but think about his family and what it must be like for them right now. Does anyone know if the two victims had any known connections or a history that might provide some context? It's just so tough to wrap my head around the "why" behind these acts of violence, especially in a neighborhood that's so unaccustomed to this level of tragedy. Anyone with more details or thoughts?
