Weems, 37, was found dead in her bedroom after suffering from a gunshot wound to the head.

“She had a passion and love for children,” Brandon Weems said via News 5 Cleveland. “She could get kids to say and do things that even their parents couldn’t do.”

Akron police are still searching for any leads in this case. Let’s hope with Lebron’s help, there will be justice for Ericka Weems.
