The lawyer, 47, was shot in the back of the head in his home in Spartanburg. A sheriff's report say that his 23-year old son, Osiris, was shouting 'I killed my father! I killed my father!' when the police arrived. He was arrested and charged. The deceased was described as 'one of our brightest' by another lawyer in the area. He had spent time as a public defender and as an advocate for neglected and abused children before entering private practice.
