Teen charged with killing his mother and sisters

What went wrong in this young man’s life that he would possibly commit such a heinous act? Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr., a 17-year-old from Lawenceville, Georgia, is being charged with the fatal shooting of his mother — who was a sheriff’s deputy along with his two little sisters, ages 11 and 4. Our first thought was if the teen had used his mother’s gun, but the story reports that is currently undetermined.

Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr. was charged with murder in the shooting deaths at the family home near Lawrenceville, where the bodies were found late Thursday, said police spokeswoman Illana Spellman. She identified the victims as Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Deputy Joy Deleston, 39, and her two daughters, Micaiah, 11, and Jelani, 4.

The motive for the killings was still under investigation, Spellman said.

Terrell was taken to jail in neighboring DeKalb County to avoid any potential conflict because Deleston worked for Gwinnett County, Spellman said. He is being held without bail.

    Reginald, it just was yesterday. Trust me. It doesn’t matter if she dropped the charges. He was arrested for it and that’s all that matters. He may get away with s*** there with who he deals with but had others way away from there known, he wouldn’t have at all. Keep me posted whatever you hear and of course I can always call. He has a lot of people already looking at him for other activities and so that’s all I’ll divulge at this time. I have a very close friend in a state agency in Atlanta and I also dated a man who works in the governor’s office. He emailed me back last night as well. I don’t like the dirt he did to his other son and I think he is a sick bitch. Joy was worse than him so it really is no wonder her son did this shit. Children raised with any kind of morals and feelings for how they could potentially hurt others do not turn out this way and that is a fact in the system. So what do we expect? Mellisa better be counting her blessings Andre wasn’t around this animal. Is there ANYTHING AT ALL that you can come forward with that he has implicated himself in and you see he got away with? Thank you.

    Carla, you are seriously crazy for real. That dude may be all those things that were said, let things play out the way God will have for him. Your putting to much into him.You still have Joy in your head. She must mave been your idol or something. Someone you wanted to be maybe or someone you wanted to love maybe in love with. Your a true mess, with a small mind. Reginald stay away from this weirdo, if all those things are true about anthony he will fall one day. When you put so much into somebody else destruction, you just might find your own. the system might just start looking into you to see whats you interested in his issues.

    Reginald if you are on again, please respond to my question and I do appreciate your candor even as you feel for whatever reason intimidated to speak what is true and on your mind. My friend I dated five years ago when I lived i Atlanta he works for the governor and I emailed him the other day. He emailed me back and last night we spoke over the phone. He seriously can not believe this man still is in corrections and he knows the commisioner for the entire state of Ga dep. of corrections. It is simply unbelievable to him that this happened and he still has a job. I promise you that I doubt he will for long and I am so happy that you and others have come forth to speak the truth and how you really feel. I hope you reply but it is being taken care of for certain and I see it as justice. There are so many people who see these two for who she was and who he is. You have every right to speak your mind and I applaud you for doing so, given your position. Thank you.

    I got to say Anthony and Joy were both stupid and needed to look in the mirror before they talked about anybody. These two were two drama queens and both ugly as fuck. They both should have been married because they both kept up drama everywhere they went. My boyfriend worked at the jail with her and went to school with them both so we all knew each other. Joy didn’t try to come onto my boyfriend because I was not afraid of her ass. She must not have liked herself to much going after all these men and none of her baby’s daddys stayed around. She was a stupid b**** and anthony everybody is stepping up telling your down low secret. You are nasty and should come clean with your wife!

    I talked to a woman with the constitution and I gave my opinion of Joy. Seems like the truth about this w**** is coming to light you all. I know one thing. Her a** is dead now and like the sister said karma dealt her her deadly fate. One less b**** who was jealous of all us pretty bitches and tried f****** with our men can’t do that s*** no more. She is dead and looks like the wide nosed Terrells are getting their s*** too. Karma is good.

    I am a white woman and I have always wondered why Joy talked to me at great length oneday about how I should be grateful to be white? We were in cla**es together. She said that I do not have to wear her black skin around and how would I feel having to put oil in my hair. She would change from a sweet persona to very angry and even though she said she wasn’t directing it to me I felt this person wanted to. She would stare at me in cla** and she was strange. I do not agree that I have it better than anyone but she would get in a conversation with me all the time about my hair. She would start in about how I should be happy I have straight blond hair and that I am treated better than her. So one day I asked her to get a smoothie with me and we went to Zax’s instead and got lunch. I could never understand what she was meaning by an hour of rambling about it being my fault for being treated in her mind better than her and that my straight blond hair made me so. It was crazy. After that, I avoided her and she became angry that I didn’t talk to her. So out of nowhere, she walked up to me in the hall and said, “You look at me you white b****! My people, my people will never accept you! I’ll beat your a** you white b**** thinking you’re all that!” I went to Ray, a man who works in the financial aid department and was a friend to me. I walked in crying and he told me that everyone knew her and that she had problems with herself and everyone. He told me to stay out of her way but I had classes with her and she would push me and stare at me. She was very scary. People are saying she was scary but I was really afraid she was capable of causing me harm and so when I saw this on the news, I thought of all this. She went up to a football player I was planning on going to homecoming with and tried to throw herself at him in front of me. I think she did not like herself. I think she probably raised her son to hate and he did what she wanted to do to others. She was not all there from what I saw.

    Joy went ballistic when she saw a picture of my creole wife. We weren’t married then but I was trying to get away from Joy. Joy was a danger to people and she tried to get my job and where I lived have me evicted, she tried to get me in jail and I know she was very insecure with herself. She was a manace to anyone she saw as a threat and is you ignored her she went off the deep edge. My wife wanted to confront Joy while I was trying to leave Joy alone and it was hard for her not to. I moved and changed companies because Joy was trying to destroy my life and make a booty call out to be more. When I met my wife, I used all excuses in the next two months not to touch Joy and she keyed my car and it was the most stress I think I’d ever been through other than when my pops died to get away from this woman. She was crazy. Her son has her crazy traits and I hate to say it but the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

    I worked with her and she was very preoccupied with a sgt who was married to a trooper and was ‘light skinned’ as she put it. She did talk to me about her feelings of wishing she weren’t black and I saw her as an extremely fragile person as far as self esteem. She lacked much esteem and when she came to work after this Anthony had beat the crap out of her I asked her why she wouldn’t have him locked up and leave him. She changed after they finally broke up for the worse and it was sad. She was working full time and going to school almost full time and then began bragging to me about the various men she’d have on the side in between. She seemed as if she had something to prove. The Joy she showed me was a huge difference than the Joy I saw her show many women. I think because I was alot older than her she didn’t feel in competition but I had little respect for her after I saw how she treated wives of men she had her times with. If I had been over her, I would have removed her. She moved to Atlanta shortly after that. It is sad what happened and I do not think anyone deserves that but she made some people feel that she did. If I were one of these wives, I don’t know how I would feel to be honest.

    I was here right after this happened and I live in Tenn. After all the things people are talking about this mother I still feel sad for these children and her son but I see how he could end up this way with a crazy mother! And the father does sound to well to nice either!

    My name is Delonna and I was a very good friend to Joy until our last year around each other at VSU. I did not ever want to be around her again after she went off on a friend of mine for nothing and tried to do many things to this girl I grew up around. Joy was a devious person as I read. It is very true what people are speaking about her but I do not agree that she got this coming. I just think she was jealous of anyone she seen as threatening. Her son was not on her mind when I knew her. She tossed him all over. I feel very sad for him and for the little girls. Joy needed mental help. She was a sad case.

    Oh my gosh I like worked with this woman at Valdosta mall while we were in school! She was like obsessed with this girl her boyfriend had a baby by and all she talked about was hoping this girl would die! This is so sad! I just remember how she would be nice one minute and then go off on people the next and it was nerve racking being around her! I can’t believe I knew her!

    I went with Joy and a friend of hers I had never met before then in ‘06 to New Orleans. The Joy who had never shown me this side I will always love, but that all changed after that trip. It was so stressful on me around the family and the funeral because I felt awful for Ms. Mildred but I never wanted to see Joy again after that trip. She took me to this lady who is a priestess and I felt evil in that place. I wanted to leave and she was siked out about this thing she believed and she did believe it that she had to get done. She took out a picture of this lady and she told the woman some crazy things. I walked out and I told her that was evil. She was not nice to me the rest of the trip. When we got back to Lawrenceville, I left her house and she called me the next week being nice again. I told her I was disappointed in her and I don’t believe in hurting people like that. She cursed me out and we didn’t speak again. I am still in shock this happened to her and I don’t know what to make of it. It was like a movie on that trip and this is like a nightmare.

    I dated Anth for about a year and I think he is bisexual. I think this man has to be something other than heterosexual. I have my own reasons that are too personal to say here as to why. It is something about him that makes him hit on women and I think it was his upbringing. I don’t have anything to say about Joy other than she took him off my hands. I think he met his match when he met her, so I heard and I kind of saw myself.

    This man is saying we are jealous of Joy and hes kinfolks alright cause we are not jealous of her. She didn’t look good and was a fool. Nobody is jealous of your kinfolk baby and you are are psycho . You are mad cause we are talking about a psycho relative and you can’t handle it like all these people are saying. You need to get a life and get into a mental ward. Lots of us didn’t like her because of the b**** she was. We say what we want so if you can’t take it then get off. You sound just as crazy as the rest of your family going around shooting up people and taking it in the booty!!!!

    I was with the department of family and children services in Valdosta when I met Joy and I knew Anthony and her then. I met Malisa and her son that year and I didn’t like what I had heard from joy so I thought she was what Joy had said but later I found Joy to be a manipulator and a jealous person. She turned on me when I seen through her. I met Malisa again at work and my case manager had her case. That was when I began to talk to my manager about the situation and I seen what Joy was like. I told Joy she was wrong to d o what she was doing and she turned into a cursing hyena threating me and going off. I met Malisa again with my manager when she went to court and we visited her. She was quiet and sad. I encouraged her and I seen Joy and Anthony in a different light after that. The extent Joy went to break up a mother and child and to have no conscience showed me who Joy was.

    This story is really crazy. Joy must have been a crazy woman. Boys don’t kill their mommas like this who have a real momma. It don’t make it right what he did but I’m just saying you know that when you think about it the majority of us wouldn’t kill our mommas and sisters just because we get mad. This woman had to be what they’re saying because black boys are scared of their mommas to even talk back and they’re close to them. This is so out there.
