10-year-old boy confesses to killing a man in 2022
GONZALES COUNTY, Texas (KSAT) – An RV park is now the center of a story that is hard to believe happened.
It started with a threat on a school bus and ended with investigators possibly solving a two-year homicide case and the suspect at the center of this is a 10-year-old boy.
According to the Gonzales County Sheriff’s Office, the 10-year-old boy admitted he killed a man when he was just 7 years old.
Law enforcement said the child will not be charged with the homicide because he is too young.
The victim’s father, Kenneth Rasberry, said he could not believe that a child was the person investigators say killed his son, Brandon Rasberry.
Brandon Rasberry, 32, was found dead at the Lazy J RV Park in Nixon on January 18, 2022.
Investigators said that at the time, the boy had been staying with his grandfather who lived in that RV park.
Authorities said the boy told them he grabbed a 9mm gun out of his grandfather’s truck, went into Rasberry’s RV, saw him sleeping and shot him in the head. The boy also told investigators he had only seen Rasberry walking around the RV park earlier that day.
