Gunmemorial.orgAuthorities in LaGrange, Georgia, are investigating a tragic incident where a 20-year-old man, Kiian Hodnett, was discovered shot dead in his home. Police suspect his twin brother, Kiias Hodnett, of being responsible for the shooting that took place on Friday, March 21.
Upon responding to an undisclosed medical emergency, law enforcement found Kiian deceased from gunshot wounds. Kiias was taken into custody shortly after the incident, with authorities alleging that he shot his brother before the emergency call was made.
Although the motive remains unclear, the local police have refrained from commenting on the matter. Shan Staples, who identified the twins as her nephews on Facebook, expressed her anguish for both individuals. She highlighted the importance of acknowledging and addressing mental health issues, urging others to seek help when needed.
Kiias faces charges of malice murder and illegal possession of a firearm during the commission of certain crimes. Further details regarding his plea and legal representation are currently unavailable.
