Keon "KILLSHOT" Saunders

[Theory]

Keon Saunders is a 14-year-old African American born and raised on Brouge Avenue in Davis. He is the elder of the two sons of Quincy and Braelin Saunders. Quincy works as a full-time mechanic at the Hayes Body Shop garage on Carson Avenue and Roy Lowenstein Boulevard while his mother is a teacher at the Jamestown Street Elementary School in Rancho. Growing up, Keon and his brother were spoiled by their parents to the best of their parents' abilities, being a somewhat low-income family. Lesane and Braelin worked hard to provide for their two sons. This, however, led to Keon developing some poor behavioral traits as he grew older. He was very much a "show off" and tried his hardest to be the class clown while also trying to fit in with the more popular crowds at school as he often wanted to be in the spotlight. Keon's grades slowly began deteriorating as a result, leading him to be one of the lowest in the majority of his classes and often leaving his parents as the recipients of many calls home from school teachers.

 

Keon is a fairly familiar face in his neighborhood, especially with those around his age range due to his sociable personality. He is known to pick on other people when surrounded by friends, especially for their dress sense, but then act close and friendly when on his own. He occasionally invites anybody he's familiar with to go with him to the B.J. Smith park on Carson Avenue to shoot hoops, or invite them over to his house to play console games.

 

At age 15, Keon Saunders was jumped into Palmer Blocc Carson Crips and earned the nickname "Killshot".

This thread follows the development of Keon Saunders, a teenager growing up in a gang infested neighborhood on Brouge Avenue in Davis.

Desperate to feed his marijuana addiction, Keon resorts to buying a quarter from a local at the B.J. Smith Park. He'd later take the weed home to roll up for himself and his friends.

Keon is picked up by a duo of Palmer Blocc Carson Crips affiliates who aim to take the young, vulnerable teenager under their wing as an associate for the gang. He rides around in traffic with them before heading to a trap house to smoke. While at the trap, Keon finally gets to lay his hands on a handgun. He aims to impress the Palmer Blocc Carson Crips affiliates by assuring them he's capable of handling a firearm and willing to open fire on rivals if necessary.

While hanging out at his friend's house, Keon stumbles across a small amount of heroin which he steals. He wastes no time flipping the drug, but sells it for much less than its street value.

Samir "Droopy#2" Wade offers Keon his first work. He puts him in charge of selling a half ounce of marijuana. Keon puts this out to his friends on Snapchat and eventually sells the half ounce at school and to his friends.
