Raymen Justice was a 17-year-old from Oakland who was fatally shot on September 21, 2010, in what has been described as a senseless act of violence. The shooting happened about a block from the family’s apartment; his father ran to the scene and witnessed Raymen die in his arms. Raymen was active in school and community work — involved in an after-school program, expanding peer-counseling for ninth graders, and serving as his school’s All City-Council representative advocating for more academic support across Oakland.

Hundreds of students held vigils, made banners, and paid tribute after his death. His brother Rayven, who performed with him as part of the Justice Brothers, was devastated and at times suicidal but later channeled that grief into a music career; his debut album I Have a Dream was presented as a tribute to Raymen.
