A Fulton County Superior Court Judge denied Usher Raymond‘s ex-wife’s emergency request for custody Friday afternoon (August 9, 2013).

Tameka’s attorneys filed for the emergency hearing on Tuesday after one of her sons, Usher Raymond V (aka ‘Cinco’) nearly drowned at her Usher’s home on Monday afternoon.
Several disturbing factors were brought up during the hearing and while I won’t address each and every one of them, I’ll drop a few in this post.

It was revealed that Baby Usher was stuck under water for almost 4 minutes while Usher’s aunt ran downstairs for help and that 4 year-old Naviyd jumped into the pool unattended to try to save his big brother.
Tameka Raymond broke down on the stand speaking about her concerns for the safety of her children. In tears, after revisiting the frantic 911 call made by Usher’s aunt, Tameka (visibly upset) yelled that it was “total chaos” in her ex-husband’s home during the period her 5 year old son was stuck under water.
One of Tameka’s attorney’s said it best, ‘Lightning doesn’t strike twice and it almost did when Tameka nearly lost a SECOND son to an aquatic accident” while in the care of her ex-husband.
The judge in the case apparently didn’t feel the same…

But on Thursday, Medina shocked all of his online friends when he made an announcement on Facebook that he had shot and killed his wife before posting a photo of her twisted, bloodied body lying on a linoleum floor.
The disturbing photo posted on Medina?s Facebook page showed a woman in black tights slumped over on her back. Her knees were bent awkwardly and her cheek and arm were bloody. He included a caption, which read: ?RIP Jennifer Alfonso,? and the photo was ‘shared’ amongst his Facebook friends for more than four hours, before the account was finally suspended.
