Chanell Crosby, the mother of a 13-year-old boy who was fatally shot in Atlanta’s DeKalb County two years ago, was found dead on July 19. According to 11Alive, police are still investigating the circumstances surrounding her death.
Tragically, Crosby’s death comes just two years after her teenage son, Jamiren Crosby, and her brother, Darrio “Polo” Giles, were both found dead.
On Thursday night, Atlanta Police issued a missing person’s report for Chanell Crosby, 35. She was last seen by her family on July 14 between 3 P.M. and 9 P.M. and authorities suspected her to be somewhere in the Macon Georgia area.
The next day, according to an 11Alive interview with her family, led by Cody Alcorn, Chanell’s dad, and Jamiren’s grandfather, Don Wilson, said that he had received a phone call from Atlanta police alerting him that Chanell’s body had been recovered.
Chanell was found when several civilians flagged down police officers at around 2 P.M. to notify them about an abandoned car that smelled very bad in the West End MARTA station area. Atlanta police officers approached the vehicle to examine it and located Chanell’s body in the back seat. The car was sitting just nine miles from the Crosby home.
The Atlanta Police Department has since confirmed that investigators found Chanell’s body in the car and that APD will be taking the lead on the investigation into her death.
