DeAllen (or D’Allen) Washington, one of three men charged in the murder of, 6-year-old, Kingston Frazier, was previously arrested for armed robbery and was currently out on a $25,000 bond and is still under indictment for that offence.

As we reported, Ebony Archie, the mother of slain boy, failed to immediately inform police that her son was in a vehicle that had been stolen as she shopped at Kroger. The boy was later found dead in the recovered vehicle.

Archie approached the deputy and said that her car was missing, and authorities began an auto theft investigation. It was not until later Archie told authorities that her son was in the car, he said.

“When we found out later that there was a child in the back, we immediately notified the highway patrol (who) put out an Amber Alert,” Mason said at an evening press conference.

Authorities have not revealed how long it took Archie to tell law enforcement that her son was in the car, however, an Amber Alert was not issued until 4:30 a.m.

Madison County Coroner Alex Breeland has confirmed the little boy died from multiple gunshot wounds.

19-year-old Byron McBride, 17-year-old D’Allen Washington and 17-year-old Dwan Diondro Wakefield have all been arrested and charged with capital murder in the slaying of the child. No bond was given. They will appear in court on Monday.
