The brother of an accomplished NFL defensive lineman and multiple Pro Bowl selection has been arrested and charged in connection with his mother's death.
Ciarre Campbell, the brother of Calais Campbell, is accused of killing his 71-year-old mother, Nateal Campbell, in Atlanta. Authorities indicated that officers arrived at the residence following a welfare check request, where they observed a male individual seemingly barricaded within the property.
Law enforcement subsequently detained the man. Inside, officers discovered an unresponsive elderly woman. This prompted homicide investigators to be dispatched to the location.
Ciarre Campbell has been formally charged with two counts of murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm or knife during the commission or attempted commission of a felony.
