Dixon said the 18-year-old was no longer Raven’s boyfriend,
Maybe he didn’t want to pay child support.
Maybe they believe he could have done something to prevent her being killed.
Stop the murdering. Stop the robbing.

This reminds me of the Rae Carruth story. He was a wide receiver for the Panthers and knocked a woman up, and then had her killed because he didn’t want anything to do with raising the baby. The baby was born at six and a half months and has all sorts of developmental problems.
Maybe we know why she was pg since mama (with a different last name) had no clue she’d left the house to get pizza in the middle of the night. Maybe she or the ex had an outstanding drug bill and there’s more to this story than ex is telling. Maybe if she’d kept her knees together and was home where she was supposed to be, her family wouldn’t be planning a funeral.
Still, sad to hear of such a young life ending and the baby’s, too.
Searched but never did find out why anyone was lashing out at the boyfriend or much at all about him.
Tangee Dixon, ‘mother’ of Raven White
Police say White and the 18-year-old father of her baby were sitting in a car eating pizza when a gunman approached at around 12:30 a.m. on Friday and demanded money.
Dixon was at home in her apartment at the time and heard the gunshot.
“I didn’t even know she was gone,” she said. “I thought she was in the house until her sister (14 years old) told her she was outside and she had left.”
Despite becoming pregnant, Dixon said her daughter was a straight-A student and a junior at Clay-Chalkville High School. She planned to start playing volleyball on her high school team again after giving birth.
She said Raven was determined to get into a good college, become a nurse and work with children.
