Grandma had a point, maybe he's been getting in some kind of situations on the streets and probably wasn't listening to her or other family members, and she thought that he would be out of the situations and at the same time get an idea of what it'll be like if he's convicted of a serious crime. Obviously something was going on with the young brother, it's a very sad ending of his life. God Bless him soul.

I pray that you all get Justice. I’m so sorry that this happened. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Fulton county jail has to many inmates inside one cell. This causes confrontations. It should be 2 ppl to one cell. Their floor plan needs to be changed around immediately. Not calling human beings animals but if you place animals together in one room. Anything can happen at any given time. Ppl have mood swings, controlling issues, selfish ways, bullying tactics etc. The way their set up is should be a violation against and unconstitutional. Inside prisons there are 2 inmates to a cell for a reason. Your family may can sue because of this.
