LJ’s Lawyer, Franklin Dupont made a compelling statement about how LJ has been a remorseful and an outstanding inmate whilst waiting for trail and being held at Bolingbroke Penitentiary. Pleading with the panel to spare LJ of the death penalty and show leniency when considering his sentence.
Both Valentin and Armstrong Jr. echoed Dupont’s sentiments about LJ and his willingness to reform his ways, showing how much of a model prisoner he has been whilst waiting for his court date.
LJ gave his own statement at the end stressing how much he is remorseful of killing Ranger Taylor and the pain he has caused.

On the 6th June 2024, while on parole La’Jaurius Berry died due to a gunshot wound at Mt. Zonah Medical Centre. Prior to being shot, LJ had been speaking to Edgar Valentin about taking over ESB whilst their leader Glenn Armstrong Jr. was in prison for violating his parole. Glenn didn’t take this lightly. While visiting his OG Glenn and other ESB members Edgar and Gio Gambino, Glenn had ordered fellow OG Moon Beam to G check LJ for his previous comments. This caused a fight in the visitation area of Bolingbroke. In order to defend himself LJ pulled out a knife and stabbed Moonbeam. During all of this fellow ESB member Dimitri was also stabbed. Dimitri, didn’t take too kind to this and shot LJ.
LJ always wished to die with a gun in hand to be accepted into Ballahalla. Unfortunately, this was unable to happen and instead LJ died with a knife in hand. Admission to Ballahalla is currently under review by the Balla Gods.
