King Yella Defends Tyshawn Lee’s Mom Buying 2015 Chrysler 200 Days After Son’s Death



King Yella is upset with negative reaction Tyshawn Lee’s mother has endured for purchasing a 2015 Chrysler 200 just days after the tragic murder of 9-year-old son with GoFundMe donations. The SkeezeGang rapper posted a fiery rant onto social media defending Karla Lee’s actions.

“She can do what the f**k she wanna do,” he said. “Her son dead. How much you think a funeral cost. That s**t don’t cost that much. Whatever yall put in her GoFundMe, whatever yall did, she could’ve made a $100,000, she ain’t gotta spend all that on her son. I’m not saying that money gon make you happy or bring your child back. …You can’t cry over spilled milk… Chicago f***d up, the world f****d up. Motherf****s die everyday.”

Ms. Lee also posted a video defending herself against criticism.



“I am so tired of yall social media and yall Facebook people bashing me. Yall don’t even know me,” she said. “I was the best mother I was to my son. Somebody leak a video of my buying a car… If a motherf****r telling you they gone take yo life too because of whatever the f**k is going on… they already took my son. I walk to work. I get on the bus. I ain’t tryna be a target for nobody. …I got this sh*t for my protection and yall bashing me. I’m pretty sure that’s something my son would’ve wanted me to do. …Why don’t yall just leave me alone.”

More than $17,000 was raised in four days through the donation website.

Ms. Lee told ABC 7 Chicago she didn’t buy the car from donations she received. She says $13,000 remains in the account after she paid for some funeral expenses and GoFundMe took its percentage fee.



Tyshawn was fatally shot the afternoon of Monday, Nov. 2 just doors from his grandmother’s house in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood.

Tyshawn, a student at Scott Joplin Elementary School, was reportedly in an alley with “an unknown number of individuals” about 4:15 p.m. when an argument erupts, someone fired shots and everyone scattered, Chief of Detectives Dean Andrews told the Tribune. Andrews said it’s unclear whether Tyshawn’s shooting death was intentional or a “tragic case of being at the wrong place at the wrong time.”

The boy was shot several times in the upper body, including the head and back, ABC 7 Chicago reports. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Tyshawn’s grandmother, Bertha Lee, found his body lying in a pool of blood with his basketball next to him.



Fr. Michael Pfleger, of St. Sabina Church, and community activist Andrew Holmes have raised over $54,000 for information leading to the capture of the person or persons responsible for the killing of Tyshawn.

“When an 8-year-old is gunned down multiple times in an alley, it sounds like an execution-style killing,” Pfleger told the Chicago Sun Times. “But what kind of creature are you, that you could shoot an 8-year-old multiple times?”
