An 18 year old Nigerian teen has been arrested after his doctor mum was found seriously injured and his younger brother found dead beside her at their home in Dix Hill, Long Island, New York.

Their dad returned home on Saturday night July 19th to discover 15 year old Bradley Okonkwo (pictured above) dead in their apartment, and his wife, Dr Chinwe Okonkwo (pictured below) suffering from severe head wounds. He immediately called the police who arrived the scene shortly afterwards.

Charles Okonkwo jnr, who’d left the home shortly after the incident, was eventually arrested near the family home, and has been charged for attacking his mother. He is yet to be charged for his brother’s death, though he confessed to ‘hurting his mother and his brother’.

Dr Okonkwo is currently receiving treatment at Stony Brook University Hospital, but is said to be in serious condition. She sustained serious trauma including facial fractures and loss of consciousness. She had been badly beaten.

Charles Jnr is said to have a history of psychiatric issues and the family had been trying to help him before the vicious attack. I bet the brother was trying to protect his mum when he was killed. Sad!

During his arraignment yesterday, Charles kept his head down throughout and did not enter a plea.

  1. I must be frank here, issues concerning Nigerian parent rasing their kids abroad am not saying its totally wrong but at least a child should be allowed to acquire the basic morals back home,at Least a secondary school certificate before moving abroad for further studies then the parent must have groomed the child to the desired african standard before moving. Abroad.

  2. Some money are evil. All those people flying abroad mistly end up in a sad way. Rip young boy. U people should come back home. Don’t blame anybody in the village because they not the one responsible. Hardluck madam. U really have to give brth again because u don’t have any child now!!!
