Grand Jury Indicts Two On First Degree Murder Charges For Klondike Road Shooting
November 13, 2020
An Escambia County grand jury has indicted two men for the October 3 murder of a man outside his Klondike Road home.
Kentavius Oliver, 30, and Samuel Maurice Young, 26, were both indicted for the first degree murder of Kevin Swan. Both remained in the Escambia County Jail without bond Friday morning.
Shortly after the shooting, the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office said two black males wearing ski masks shot a man at an apartment at the corner of Mobile Highway and Klondike Road about 1:30 p.m. before fleeing.

This is the rap, thug life culture, that glorifies being a criminal!!! It’s not only young men falling victim to this way of thinking nor is it limited to race or ethnicity. Our society is bombarded with violence through music, television and everyday life to the point that our youth has embraced it as a way of life.. Unfortunately, things are going to get much worse before it gets any better.
Rasheed, no one has taught these young men there are consequences for your decisions. The black culture is carry a firearm so i can shoot you before you shoot me. The black culture accepts this theory as a way to live and when the time comes to shoot, they make quick decisions without thinking of the LONG TERM CONSEQUENCES.
This seems to be happening all to often here lately. What is wrong with these young men that think they can just gun someone down and it is OK? Do they not think they will get caught? Do they not worry they could spend the rest of their life in prison, or the better part of it? Is their hatred so deep they are willing to chance losing their freedom and throwing their life away to prove a point? Do they actually think they will get a way with it? Do they not have any respect for human life? Do they not have respect for their own life? I just don’t understand.
