The murder of Ericka Weems, a 37-year-old woman from West Akron, was found shot dead in her home this past Monday. Her family is struggling t find answer and to understand how a woman so dedicated to care for others can be targeted in an act of senseless violence.
“She’s a spectacular person,” Darrell Weems Sr. said of his daughter. “I don’t know why anybody would want to hurt her.”
Her childhood friends are asking for answers….
That childhood friend happens to be LeBron James.
“AKRON OHIO!! My brother’s sister was murdered this past weekend in her home!,” James said on Twitter. “My brother’s family need answers to why and by whom.”
