Alabama TikTok star Mama Tot shared her grief and frustration on the social media platform Friday, telling her 8.7 million followers how she feels after the man accused of fatally shooting her son in a botched pot deal turned himself in and was charged with murder.

Ophelia Nichols, the real name of the social media star, told how she felt a sense of sorrow when she first saw a photo of Reuben Gulley, 20, who Prichard, Ala., police say shot her son, Randon Lee, 19, in a local gas station.

'I am not happy,' she said. 'When I seen that mugshot last night, I thought to myself, 'My goodness, he's just a baby.'

She said she saw comments from the suspect's teachers online saying 'he was a lovely young man.' 'I'll be he was,' she said. 'That just made me think within 11 seconds he made a decision to just throw his life away.'

Nichols said she found commonality between Gulley's life and her son's.

'There's one thing that he and my baby child had in common and that is that they both have a mother that would do absolutely anything for them,' she said, choking back tears. 'So remember that there are two families that are hurting. There's two of us.'

Gulley, of Saraland, Ala., turned himself in Thursday at the Mobile County Jail on a warrant for his arrest for Lee's murder.

'My goodness, he's just a baby.'

And might still be alive if his mama cared at all for him.

I don’t know who has the most potential, the kid or his mother.

Nothing new here… just another black-on-white murder. Happens every day many times.

I'd say the potential of each was fully realized

Blacks have a tendency to act irrational and violent and got caught frequently with spontaneous violence and robbery

Words to me from a lucchese capo in 1991 explaining why he avoided deals with blacks with few exceptions

Folks should generally not expect to die from a minor pot deal

Amen to that! And in a few years people such as this will be running the Country. Along with being in the majority, if they are not now. Makes me glad that I am 80 years old and won't be here much longer.

God loves you. remember the wonderful country we had and be thankful for it.

and if it's any help, God is all powerful: everything that exists now has always existed and will always exist. Who knows, we may see it again.

8.7 million people with lives so empty and meaningless they “follow” this person on a video screen. Unbelievable.

that’s why Elon Musk found out that Twitter numbers are 60% inflated. Tim Pool explained how can obama get 80 mil followers on Twitter when the traffic numbers dont add up.
