Overview

  • Gwinnett County police have named 24-year-old Ky Lasheed Frost, son of ‘Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta’ stars Kirk and Rasheeda Frost, as the prime suspect in the rapper’s fatal shooting.
  • Police say the shooting followed a domestic disturbance at T-Hood’s Snellville home, during which a woman was injured and the suspect separated himself before firing.
  • Detectives are examining whether the killing qualifies as self-defense under Georgia law, and no formal charges have been filed.
  • T-Hood’s mother has publicly rejected the self-defense narrative, alleging her son was shot in the back and demanding justice.
  • T-Hood’s family shared an unverified recording that appears to implicate his girlfriend’s brother, though Kelsie Frost has denied any involvement.
