US Man, 21 Accused Of Killing Older Brother Over Jealousy Of His Success by Titopeblog(op): 2:41pm On Oct 26
21-year-old US man accused of ending older brother's life out of jealousy over his success
A 21-year-old man, identified as Breylon Roberts, has been charged with first-degree premeditated homicide following an incident that claimed the life of his older brother, Trey Cameron Roberts, 23, at their family home in Southfield, Michigan.

According to police, the incident occurred on Monday, October 19, following years of alleged tension between the brothers.

Investigators believe Breylon had grown resentful of his older brother's achievements at work and the respect he received from family members and friends.

Security footage from a neighbouring property reportedly captured sounds of gunfire before showing Breylon leaving the house with the family dog.

The brothers' 17-year-old sister later returned home and discovered the incident, prompting her to contact emergency services.

Police subsequently detained Breylon and recovered evidence they said connected him to the incident.

Speaking at a press conference, Southfield Police Chief Elvin Barren said interviews with relatives and friends suggested that jealousy over Trey's success may have contributed to the longstanding conflict.

“The conflict was reportedly related to the perceptions of the victim having greater success,” Barren explained.

The police chief compared the incident to the biblical story of Cain and Abel and urged families to address serious conflicts before they escalate.

Breylon has pleaded not guilty to the charge and was denied bail.

Na wa o. Bro killing bro is too too bad. Reminds me of the story of Yahweh and his brothers in the Book of Universal History. Their fights were so so endless.

Basotesh 18 : 16 - 27

Now in those days, a great quarrel ensued between Ephradite and Yahweh. For Ephradite complained about the smokes and heat generated by the fire of Yahweh.

And Yahweh also complained about the reptiles, insects and worms which Ephradite had put in his garden to destroy the plants and animals there.

Now Ephradite sought after Chaleb, saying, you said that you have made very tiny organisms that can decay dead woods.

Now act quickly and make them available in the forests so that they could decay all the dead wood, so that they do not become coals anymore.

For by so doing, the fire which Yahweh makes daily will be cut off from fuels. And I will also go and fight against him to see how I could quench the fire.
So did Yahweh and Ephradite begin the great fight. Then Chimides helped Yahweh to fight against Ephradite while Chaleb helped Ephradite to fight against Yahweh.
And the large reptiles and worms which Ephradite made did he use to fight against Yahweh who used fire and great sparks.

Now Yahweh fetched large coals of fire and threw them at Ephradite and his creatures and the creatures died in large quantities.

So also did Ephradite throw his worms and reptiles into the garden of Yahweh. And they devoured the things which were in the garden.

And the tiny organisms which Chaleb blew into the garden also did much damage to the garden..
And many of the animals and plants which Yahweh preserved in the garden were killed by the worms and reptiles.

Then Yahweh burnt the worms and reptiles to death with the firewood and the coals which he pulled out from the large fire that had been burning for days.

Now when the bodies of the animals that died in large number had rotten, Earth picked their bones in a very large number and buried them in the soil, at a depth which was almost as deep as the second layer of the earth.

May you not be a parent who stirs up sibling rivalry, just because you favour one over another to the detriment of the less favoured because the one you loved most is successful!

Parenting gone wrong.

FEAR OF GOD
LOVE
BONDING
FAMILY RETREAT

are major things needed in upbringing of children together....

Once these things are missing, expect some level of jealousy and envy among children not trained with deep family love...

Blacks have this innate spirit of envy and jealousy especially to friends and family members once they start progressing, that’s one scourge you must experience if u reside in the black community

I have seen this first hand, its always black people, small progress hatred don start instead of hustling for yours and maybe loving the person all the same so he can also lift you up, anyone can be your helper.

🚨 NIGERIANS, PLEASE WAKE UP! 🌍🇳🇬

The world is facing growing climate risks, floods, extreme heat, wildfires and other disasters. In just the past 7 days, 2,378 earthquakes of all recorded magnitudes were reported worldwide, including 562 of magnitude 2.5 or higher.

The Bible gave a warning in Matthew 24: 16-19 👇

16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!

Please prioritise the children you already have, your family's wellbeing, and don't bring innocent children to suffer! It's game over; the world is no longer the same so your priorities must change too!! Bringing a child into the world is a serious responsibility. Think carefully about the future before deciding to have more children. 🙏

Ecclesiastes 1:2-11: Vanity of Vanities says the preacher, all is Vanities... What has been is what will be, what has been done is what will be done and there's nothing new under the sun. Is there a thing of which it is said , see, this is new? It has been already in the ages before us. There's no remembrance of former things nor will there be any rememberance of later things among those who come after.
