This part this is my second time texting on here I never knew about it I look at my nephew face I just cried cuz it’s my fault I wish I wouldn’t have never went to Amos and Amy I’ve been thinking about him a lot I got a company name Kevin’s cleaning service LLC I have to start somewhere it took me 21 years but I’m doing it I miss my nephew so much for 2 years straight I couldn’t even do anything I miss his smell I miss him so much the most is I can’t tell him that I love him you know the last thing I did before the devil took him and the last thing I did with him he was dancing in the hallway we stayed in this apartment building with my uncle I did he didn’t I don’t care if I stayed in the hole he is still coming find me and he got his own bedroom his own everything but he love his auntie fat last thing I did with him we was dancing in the hallway and I rubbed his head and I told him you know I love you right and he say I know that ain’t too fat I love you too I said you can’t dance man he say yes I can ain’t too fat watch this while I’m texting you this I’m crying sad but happy tears I love him so much he love me so much I told him hey I got to go to Amos and Amos to pick up our food I told him to watch his little cousin poo he said okay ain’t too fat so don’t leave out of here boy I’ll be right back we stayed on llion if you stay in Minneapolis Minnesota you know what street I’m talking about on the north side we stayed around the corner from Amos and Amos if you know the north side you would know where that street at man I miss him I wish I would have never came over North I know that he was something when he was a baby he always was demanded of everything no matter what his ain’t too fat do herself he respected and he loves me and he love his poo and he love his Tasha and pumpkin I just wish I could turn back time but I know I can’t I know now that he in a better place at first I didn’t I was too angry with God with Jesus I was angry with everyone but he’s showing me the way my father in Jesus but my father showed me the way I love you father I know you got him I love you father with all my heart Adam’s father Jesus father my creator I love you with all my heart please Lord I love you with all my heart I just wish my nephew will be here my sister won’t be sad and no one will be angry at me it’s like it’s my fault everything is my phone I just wish the black community was better than what they are not trying to be a hypocrite cuz I did a lot of things too when it happened to your family you don’t look at nothing else but your family and they come a moment in your life that you do have to choose God or the devil and I’m going to choose God not the devil I think I choose a little too long I used to wake up and think Kevin going to be in front of me and he going to say I fooled you ain’t too fat I tricked you again I’m right here but I know it ain’t going to come true it’s been 21 years nobody having said nothing and take a angry lady to get on Facebook to mention someone’s name come on man a baby now it’s 21 years my nephew been gone 21 years and nobody still having said anything but you know what I know that’s for sure people around us you who killed him they just was saying that that’s how the black community do I can’t be a hypocrite because I used to be them too until it happened to my family my sister no one have to look in her face but her family the people that she loved look what I did that’s how I look at myself look what I did half of the time I don’t even like going around my family I don’t it’s like I should have went to go get nothing to eat I was 7 months pregnant I ran out my shoes try to get my nephew CPR I remember the day clear as so clear and it was at night and Amos and Amos close that 10:00 if I mistaken I went to go get the food at 9:30 I get back my nephew is dead across the street where we live at it ain’t like this kid be outside running around doing whatever he do whatever he won’t no but if a child is curious you can tell a child to do a lot of things that don’t mean they’re going to do it this time I wish you just would have listened to auntie fat because he was still be here that radio station KMOJ all the backlash my sister used to cry do y’all know my sister used to work all the time I’m not denying she didn’t go out she was young we both was young and I’m the one who watch the kids only if I wouldn’t have never went to Amos and Amos this is the first time I ever expressed how I really feel about that day that night do you know I had a dream that I got killed the same way he got killed I told everyone but nobody wouldn’t listen to me I felt it so what’s going what happened and it did I thought it was going to be me the way I got shot in my dream my nephew got killed that way so God did give me a sign I try to tell everybody but they always think that I think the worst instead of good first and I do but I knew something was going to happen told my home girl / sister hey I’m going to happen if she was here today she tell you but she died too she had a bad heart now these two people in my life is just gone but Kevin Brewer is everything to me and I was everything to him all I’m saying we got to do better just how we for George Floyd we got to do that for ourselves now if we we fighting this hard now it’s time to go all the way and I got to straighten my life up to that’s why I’m starting a company Kevin just for you let you know that ain’t trying to do it I’mma get it together I got everything now all I got to do is get an emotion Kevin’s cleaners service LLCs how about that Kevin I love you man and I name my son right after you I love you I’ve been to work hard and help others I have to I can’t have no other way and he won’t either thank you God for never leaving me and giving me the understanding that I have today not yesterday or not in 2000 thank you my Lord my creator thank you for blessing me and my family love

Hi Jason,
I would believe they aren’t in Minnesota anymore! It would be really great to hear they are relooking at this case. When I contacted the pd last year they couldn’t really give me any information because it’s an open case. Time for them to light up the media!!

These Somali criminals are not citizens, for the most part. So why weren’t/aren’t those like the one who flipped out in the interrogroom DNA tested? This case seems like enough wasnt done. Not because the detectives didn’t want to solve it, but because they seem to be overwhelmed with new cases etc. If ever there was a case that needs a new look it’s this one. If those same scumbags even still live in the US.

Hi Rebecca!
I agree that the murder will never be solved. I feel bad for Joseph’s family members! They can never rest completely!

That Somali gang is known for committing a lot of murders. They will stick together. Sadly this may go unsolved and I bet they did it.

Have you asked the police officers to re-run the foreignDNA they gathered from the inside of his pockets? It seems as though it was a robbery and most likely a gang member acting alone or with others. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss, I know how it feels to lose a loved one to homicide and the person or persons responsible not be held accountable. However, I do think the foreign DNA will lead to a suspect. Even if this person has not had mandated DNA entered into the CODIS system, he/she could be located via forensic genealogy.

Just wanted to say that the detectives on First 48 should have followed up with the guy, didn’t mentioned his name, but that guy stated that his friend told him a story about a stabbing…especially that he stated he was drunk….they don’t and haven’t had any leads so if I was them, they should follow up…if you interview them or him, you should be able to see if they get nervous or whatever it is you look for…..please follow up…the guy in the show had a black bottomed up shirt with white stripes…..Be well

Hi Patricia! I read that on a forum about the college and it was hard to get in. I also read that he was a beautiful dancer! I do wish they would find his killer! I would like to have justice for Joseph and his family!

I live in Seattle, and I assure you, Cornish College of the Arts is an amazing college–many apply, not many are accepted. The fact that Joseph was accepted and found a home there is testament to his extraordinary talent. And though his story breaks my heart, he will not be forgotten. Do not rest in peace, Joseph …. rest in DANCE.
