"My baby sister called me and said, ‘they killed Ashley, my nephew killed Ashley,’" he said. "He said it was an accident. He didn't mean to do it and he just aimed it and that was it."
What you can do:
Dealing with the unexpected, Hudson is selling his car to pay for Ashley's funeral as the family seeks understanding.
"I used to always tell them to stop doing this and my sister, she loves her kids so much. I know for sure she did not expect that, and did not ever want nothing like that to happen," he said. "Ashley’s gone and we can’t bring her back, and she has children."
