In 2008 Ron Killings hit and killed 11 year old Lakeisha White while
driving on Bradyville Pike. Two years later he was acquitted of
vehicular homicide, tampering with evidence and filing a false report in
connection with the case. On Tuesday Killings was charged with
aggravated domestic assault for allegedly hitting and choking his
girlfriend. According to a police report filed by Stephanie Barrett,
Killings took her cell phone and got angry over text messages to another
man. Killings was arrested and placed on a twelve hour hold in the
Rutherford County Detention Center. Lakeisha White's family was unhappy
with the acquittal in the vehicular homicide trial. They're hoping for a
different outcome in the domestic assault case. In a written statement Stephanie Barrett says, "Ron is not a bad person, he just made a bad
decision. My hope is that he takes responsibility for his actions and
gets the help he needs."
