A 17-year-old has been charged with the shooting death of an 11-year-old in Anderson, Anderson Police Chief Jim Stewart announced during a news conference Wednesday morning.
Stephen Braden Powell is charged with murder and four counts of attempted murder.
Police told WYFF News 4 that an investigation began after a post was made on Facebook with someone claiming he shot 11-year-old Ja'Naiya Scott.

When asked about the Facebook post during the news conference, Stewart said police were aware of it.

North Charleston Been Like Dodge City for Over 30 Years now ...
Just with Social Media you Hear More about Crime Now.
Standing at the intersection of Attaway Street and Sumner Avenue in the Charleston Farms neighborhood, North Charleston Police Chief Reggie Burgess, members of local clergy and the National Action Network called on the community to step up to gun violence.
The nearly two dozen people gathered at the intersection where 21-year-old Ronald Simmons was shot Sunday night. He later died of his injuries at Medical University Hospital.
Roughly seven hours after Ronald Simmons was shot, 34-year-old Lamont Simmons was shot outside the Dreams Restaurant & Sports Cafe on Dorchester Road early Monday, police said.
The two men, as well as the incidents, are not related, according to police.
“You know we’re tired of it, we’ve been tired of it,” Burgess said. “We’re not going to sit back and say this is another day, another walk in the park.”
Burgess showed surveillance camera photos of another shooting over the weekend at an Exxon on Ashley Phosphate Road in which a young child observed two men exchange gunfire during a child custody drop-off.
“In every frame you see a child, there is no excuse for that,” Burgess said. “Nobody can tell me that this child should be victimized in this way, it should never happen. This is not the wild, wild West. This is a community and this is what’s going on in our neighborhoods.”
An incident report released by police early Tuesday night provides more details about that shooting.
Around 3:50 p.m. on Saturday, two officers were in the midst of a traffic stop near 2170 Ashley Phosphate Road when they heard multiple gunshots coming from the nearby Exxon gas station, the report stated.
When they arrived, an employee showed them video surveillance that captured two vehicles, a black Nissan and a silver Mitsubishi, pull up in front of a candy shop near the Exxon, the report stated.
Avanti Fisher, 24, got out of the Nissan “to attempt a child custody transfer,” and Tyreece Smith, 29, got out of the Mitsubishi and walked up to Fisher, the report stated. A fight between the two broke out and at some point, shots were fired.
During the incident, the 3-year-old could be seen standing “next to” the suspects, according to the report.

A 2-year-old and a 6-month-old were inside the silver Mitsubishi, which suffered damage to its driver side window, the report stated.
Fisher was arrested on Sunday and charged with pointing and presenting a firearm, Burgess said. Smith remains at large.
Charles Tyler, president of the NAN’s Tri-County Chapter, said members of his organization will team up with the Police Department through a new initiative called Occupy The Corners, a community effort used in Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Detroit. Later this month, the NAN chapter and the Police Department will hold a one-day training.
“We have so much killing in our community and we have to decrease these killings and get out and speak to the young people,” Tyler said. “We’re not out here to lock anybody up. We’re out here to educate young people on what they are doing, how they are getting these illegal guns in their hands and what they are doing to their future.”
Similar to a citizen patrol approach, clergy and police will stand on troublesome corners to talk to young people about gun violence. Krisalyn Komakech, co-founder of the Unity Prayer Alliance, also advocated for the community to come together.

Jillian Hollingsworth, a North Charleston resident, said action needs to be taken at the state level.
Three people died from separate shootings Sunday and early Monday in the Charleston area. Charleston police are investigating the death of 30-year-old James Terry of North Charleston, who died at Medical University Hospital after being shot at Orleans Gardens Apartments in West Ashley.
The fatal shootings mark the 13th and 14th homicides in North Charleston and the fifth in the city of Charleston so far this year. There have now been 33 homicides in the tri-county area in 2019, according to a Post and Courier database.
Tyreece Smith, who is also known as “Killa” and “Tye,” is wanted by the North Charleston Police Department on suspicion of one count each of unlawful conduct toward a child and first-degree assault.

Smith’s last known address was on South Tracy Street in Charleston, police said. He is described as a black male, 6 feet tall, 188 pounds; with black hair, brown eyes and a medium complexion.
He has “Killer T” and “Star with Vonnie,” tattooed on his person, police said.
If anyone has information on Smith’s whereabouts, contact Sgt. S. Perkins at 843-740-2858 or sperkins@northcharleston.org.

Brittanee Drexel Case - Supreme Court decision impacts case of man accused of being connected to Brittanee Drexel
JUSTICE !
Taylor could face 10 to 20 years in prison. Give Him The Max - 20 Years.
GIVE HIM THE MAX. PERHAPS 20 YEARS WILL MAKE HIM TALK ..
HE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED TO BRITTANEE DREXEL
WASHINGTON, D.C. (WMBF) – The nation’s highest court made a ruling on a case that impacts a man accused of being connected to Brittanee Drexel’s disappearance.
The U.S. Supreme Court made a decision last week that clears the way for an unrelated federal robbery case against Timothy Dashaun Taylor to move forward.
The federal government brought its own charges against Taylor in a 2011 robbery case, even after he already served 18 months probation on state charges.
He was indicted on those federal charges in 2016, but his attorney has called it unconstitutional because of the double jeopardy clause.
Taylor’s sentencing was on hold while the U.S. Supreme Court considered another case, U.S. v. Gamble. It’s similar to Taylor’s in that the defendant claimed he was tried twice for the same crime, once in state court and then in federal.
However, on June 17, the Supreme Court justices declined the appeal, citing what’s known as dual sovereignty doctrine, which says state and federal courts are two different entities, therefore the same case can be tried twice.
Taylor could face 10 to 20 years in prison. A sentencing date hasn’t been set.
Taylor has been connected to Drexel’s disappearance. The teenager vanished 10 years ago while on spring break in Myrtle Beach.
Taquan Brown, a jailhouse informant, told the NBC affiliate in Rochester, N.Y. that he saw Drexel at an abandoned house in McClellanville, two days after she was last seen in Myrtle Beach.
In 2016, the Brown implicated Taylor in Drexel’s disappearance. An FBI agent said Brown told him he witnessed Taylor and others sexually abuse Drexel at a stash house in the McClellanville area.

Who were the 2 people arguing over Brittanee Drexel Cell Phone that Da'shaun Taylor knew of ?? Why he get so mad for ?? Hiding something ..
HE KNOWS A LOT MORE THAN HE IS SAYING ..
WHO DID DA'SHAUN TAYLOR SNITCH ON ?? SAID, "SOMEONE
ELSE HAD BRITTANEE DREXEL CELLPHONE."
HEARD 2 PEOPLE ARGUING OVER IT.
The documents revealed Taylor had told the FBI about an argument he overheard in June 2016 between two people whose names were redacted from the records.
The quarrel was sparked by an accusation that someone had Drexel’s cellphone.
“Taylor advised that neither of them ever confided to him that they were involved in Drexel’s disappearance,” the polygraph report stated, “but Taylor thought the argument was suspicious.”
During the questioning, the filings added, Taylor continued to deny withholding any information and started “shouting angrily.”
The interview was ended.
To get that Mad you know he is hiding things. He knows who all Gang
Raped that poor girl. Showed her off in 3 different cities. North Charleston,
Georgetown and McClellanville. Human Trafficking. Sold Her.
