The mother that helped her teenage son flee the region has also been arrested.

Two brothers accused in a shooting that left three people dead, including a toddler, were captured several days after their mother drove them to another state so they could avoid law enforcement.
On Thursday, the Baton Rouge Police Department announced the arrests of David Williams, 19, and his 15-year-old brother, LeDarrius Coleman. Arrest records suggest the brothers fired gunshots that left at least two of the three victims dead.
Earlier this week, police arrested another 15-year-old suspect and two adults in the fatal shooting. The two adults arrested are Latoya Coleman and Christopher Stovall.
Coleman, the mother of Williams and his 15-year-old brother arrested Thursday, is charged as an accessory after the fact to first-degree murder.
Stovall is booked as a principal to three counts of first-degree murder.
A third juvenile, 15-year-old Darrell Edwards, was booked Tuesday as a principal to three counts of first-degree murder and illegal use of a weapon. District Attorney Hillar Moore said he hasn't decided whether the teen will be charged as an adult.
According to arrest records, video surveillance of the Memorial Day shooting shows the suspects entering Fairway View Apartments pool and lounge area.
Officials said the suspects then got into a fight with two males who were seated in lounge chairs near the pool.
This is when the deadly shooting occurred, according to the affidavit. The two males were shot and killed, in addition to an 18-month-old child who was caught in the crossfire.
The official report goes on to say that footage from video surveillance shows the suspects fleeing west from the apartments, holding stolen weapons.
The arrest report adds that immediately after the shooting, one of the suspects allegedly called a family member and explained what happened, plainly stating that he and his brother had just shot two people. The document says the family member confirmed this call with authorities.
Police go on to say that after gathering more information, they interviewed Coleman on June 8 and while speaking with her, discovered that she helped her two sons flee to Texas after the shooting. She was arrested for her alleged role in helping her sons evade capture.

Was this the same mother claiming her son didn't "own" a gun?

Death penalty for all of them. I am so sick of it. And don't preach to me BLM, because obviously they don't.

This is very refreshing to hear that the family member had enough of a conscious to relay that information to authorities. That took guts because they are very likely to have some type of retaliation from friends and family, even if it's just hard feelings.
BUT, I don't see why the newspaper has to publish that. Why do the police need to specifically mention that phone call. They could simply state that they have verified sworn statements and leave it at that. We don't need to know it was a family member that the POS called immediately after the shooting.
This doesn't help the cause of cooperating with the police in these communities.
