Posted by Atlanta, GA – Some disturbing details have emerged in the murder of Archie Eversole. According to TMZ, the “We Ready” rapper was shot in the face as he slept but wasn’t able to identify his attacker.
Before Eversole succumbed to his injuries, he told police someone had broken into his bedroom and was awakened to find a shotgun in his face on March 25. Police asked Eversole if the shooter was still inside the residence and he nodded his head in agreement. Although officers asked who the shooter was, Eversole wouldn’t answer and started fading in and out of consciousness. Eversole died nine days later at age 37.
Police soon discovered fresh blood covering the front door and a trail of blood from the stairs to Eversole’s room where the blood-spattered door had been busted through. There was also blood all over the bed, pillows and wall. Eversole’s brother, Alexander Krause, initially told police he was simply checking on his brother. But they noticed he had blood on his socks and was limping (he said from a blister on his foot). Krause was ultimately arrested and charged with Eversole’s murder.
