In the summer of 2023, the life of a quiet and kind-hearted teenager from New Orleans was tragically cut short. Corey Francis Clausell, a 16-year-old male, was found deceased on Friday, July 7, 2023. Remembered by his family as a loving son and brother, Corey had a passion for video games and was a sneaker fanatic, often seen wearing his favorite sweatshirts despite the Louisiana heat.
He was known for his caring nature and his concern for the well-being of others.
On that Friday, Corey was discovered in an alley in the 7000 block of Salem Drive in New Orleans. He had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and succumbed to his injuries at the scene. The circumstances surrounding his death were violent and sudden, leaving a void in the lives of his family and friends who described him as someone who touched the lives of many.
In the time since his death, there has been limited public information released by law enforcement regarding the investigation into Corey's homicide. Details about any potential suspects or persons of interest have not been made available, and there have been no announcements of any arrests in connection with the shooting. The case remains an open and painful chapter for his loved ones, who held a funeral service for Corey on July 22, 2023, as they continue to seek answers and justice for the loss of a young life full of promise.
