Donkey Today for Friday, March 7th goes to 24 year old Adonis Robinson and 21 year old Jacobe Russell. I really hate to do this story on a Friday, but if not now, when? Those two y ns are the suspects in custody wanted for the Forest Hill murder of a 30 year old man named Ronnie Sibley and his 5 year old daughter, Ramani Sibley. Well, one of them is in custody. I think Adonis is in custody. I don't know if both of them are, but let's go to Fox 4 News for the report, please.
Remy Ma
Two capital murder suspects are now identified and subjects of a manhunt.
Charlamagne Tha God
They're scared, they're cowards, they're hiding.
Remy Ma
They are 24 year old Adonis Robinson and 21 year old Jacoby Russell, both of Fort Worth. Investigators say the two are the gunmen captured by surveillance cameras at a car wash Monday during the ambush and double murder of music rap artist Ronnie Sibley and his five year old daughter Armani.
Charlamagne Tha God
We have public enemy number one, Adonis Robinson, who is also a registered sex offender. Public enemy number two, Jacoby Russell, who's on the run. Yes, Adonis Robinson is in custody. Jacoby Russell is on the run. At this point, I don't even know what can be said. What can I say on this radio this morning that has never been said before? And the answer is absolutely nothing? What do I tell y'all all the time? If you're paying attention to your Uncle Charlotte, I tell you all the time that every day of our lives all we are trying to do is avoid crazy. The crazy that exists within us, okay? Right here. All right. We try to avoid that, okay? That's why. That's why I wake up and I prayed and I meditate. Then I read my daily affirmations. I set my intentions for the day and I do my best to contain the crazy that exists in this head of mine, okay? That's why I thank God for therapy and all the mindfulness mechanisms I use on a daily, weekly basis to avoid crazy. But see, that's the crazy you can somewhat contain. The crazy of other people is completely out of your control. There is nothing that brother Ronnie could have done to prevent whatever was going on in the minds of Adonis Robinson and Jacoby Russell. That's the type of crazy that we hope to avoid every day. But sometimes that crazy finds you. And that's what happened in this situation. Police say a motive for the killing is unclear. But does a motive even matter? There is not a motive you could tell me that would justify this man and his five year old daughter being shot and killed. There is nothing that would even make sense for me, okay? I can hear both of these brothers now saying I didn't know his daughter was in the car or may knew his daughter was in the car and didn't care either way. It don't matter. She's a five year old girl who was just spending some time with her father. In fact, family spokesperson Bishop Rodney McIntosh said the five year old girl was just. Just dropped off to her father at the car wash minutes before the deadly gunfire. I don't have anything for y'all this morning. I was born in 1978 and there's nothing I can say on this radio today that hasn't already been said a million times in my 46 years of existence, okay? It's a cycle of violence that I don't know where it began and I don't know when or if it's ever going to end, okay? Police have not said how the suspects knew Ronnie, but they said the music industry is part of the investigation. The music industry? Really? The music industry. Guns. I have to tell you though, the music industry doesn't kill people, okay? And guns don't kill people, okay? People in the music industry kill people and people with guns kill people. The moral of the story is I understand all the external factors that push people to do certain things, but what about the internal, okay, at certain times I don't want to hear about anything else. I want to look at young men like Adonis and Jacoby and say, hey, this is your fault, okay? Destiny is not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice. And you two made a very, very, very poor choice that led to a 30 year old man and his 5 year old daughter getting killed. Now Adonis is in custody. Jacoby as a right now, from what I'm seeing is still on the run. But where you going, Jacoby Russell. Okay? Stop prolonging the inevitable. You're going to prison forever. And that prison sentence you're going to get was earned. And that's why the judge going to give it to you. The world is just an exhausting place, okay? And we as a people got so much to deal with. But you know one thing, I wish we didn't have to fear each other, okay? There is a lot of opposition we as men, black men, have to deal with on a daily basis. And I wish I could scratch each other off that list. I'm not your opp. I don't want you to be mine either. Can you imagine if we lived in a world that no matter what else was going on, no matter what other issues we had to deal with, we didn't have to worry about each other. Wouldn't that be nice? There is three black men gone because of this situation. And one young princess who won't get the opportunity to grow into a queen. So many families ruin forever. So much trauma that's going to take generations to heal because of the poor choices of two young niggas. That's all I got. Because the reality is I feel like I'm wasting my breath. Please let Remy Ma give Adonis Robinson and Jacoby Russell the biggest. Hee haw.
Emily Tish Sussman
Hee haw, hee haw.

You stupid mother. Are you dumb? So stupid.
Remy Ma
So sad. Did y'all see the video of his daughter's friend from school? I guess Ronnie had came and did, like, a Valentine's Day celebration with his daughter in school, and one of the little girl's dad didn't show up, so he, like, celebrated with them. And she made a video. Her mom posted it and was just like, I missed you in school today and was like, giving a camera hug. Cause she didn't come to school.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Remy Ma
So sad. Little baby. A little baby.
