R.I.P 14-Year-Old Paul Sampleton: His Own Friend Killed Him Just For Basketball Shoes!

"A Gwinnett County teenager killed over his fancy basketball shoes went to the same school as the people accused of robbing and shooting him.
Two teenagers and an adult have been arrested and charged in connection with the December death of Paul Sampleton Jr., police said Friday. All three suspects went to Grayson High School, where Paul was a freshman, according to police.




Paul wasn’t friends with the suspects, but knew them, Cpl. Jake Smith with Gwinnett County police said Friday afternoon. The teen’s mother told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution she was thrilled to learn of the arrests, but is still heartbroken over the loss of her only child.
“I’m still somber because my son is gone,” Stephanie Stone, Paul’s mother, said Friday night. “They took a lot from me over material things that can be bought, that can be replaced. My son can’t be replaced.”" - AJC
