Tony's Story
https://everytown.org/tribute/nicole-w/ On November 30, 2017, was the last time I looked into the beautiful eyes of my baby and kissed him all over his face and loved on him… My son, Antonio M. Wilson Jr., was robbed of his life, snatched from his son and siblings, and cheated out of his blossoming career as a singer song writer and rapper at the young age of 27.
Tony went to a shopping center in South Los Angeles to purchase dinner from a local community restaurant; while headed home walking through the shopping center he was shot multiple times in a drive-by shooting. No one else was hit by the barrage of gunfire, just my baby. Tony fought for his life for 16 days in the hospital before succumbing to his injuries. His senseless murder is still unsolved.
I will forever honor my son Antonio in the fight to end gun violence and support those families impacted.
