Atlanta rapper Archie Eversole brother, charged in his murder

Atlanta rapper Archie Evans, whose real name was Arthur Eversole, passed away at 37 years old on Apr. 3 from a gunshot wound to his jaw. DeKalb County Police discovered the injured artist at a Chevron gas station just east of Atlanta on March 25 after being shot in the face at his home while he slept Daily Mail reported.

It still remains unclear how the rapper got to the gas station after being shot. Eversole passed away from blood loss at a local hospital nine days later.

The rapper was most known for his 2002 single “We Ready”, Eversole informed police that his bedroom door had been knocked down and he woke up to a gunshot to his face. However, he couldn’t see who the shooter was. When he asked if he knew if the shooter remained in the home, Eversole nodded his head yes according to police report. Once asked if he knew who the perpetrator was, he wouldn’t answer and faded out of consciousness.

Eversole’s brother, 41-year-old Alexander Kraus was arrested at his home and chagred with murder after Eversole died from his injuries according to police Lt. Shane Smith

At the time of his arrest, police discovered Kraus’ socks bloodied, connecting him to the blood-covered front door, stairs, and bedroom they found at Eversole’s home. Kraus was additionally charged with over an ounce possession of marijuana. He is currently in custody without bail at Dekalb County jail.

Eversole’s mother and management do not believe Kraus is to blame according to Fox 5 Atlanta.

“They had no arguments. They had no feuds. OK, no. And I know that. Yesterday I talked to the neighbor next door. I asked her and I say: Did you hear any arguments? Did you hear any fights? She said no. She didn’t hear nothing. Not that day. Not any other day,” their mother said..

The family points fingers at police and emergency personnel for not putting in sufficient effort to save Eversole’s life.

“Archie was a great friend, business partner, and a positive light for many. Personally, he was a brother to me,” said business partner Micheal Smith said in a statement to USA Today. “Archie was a very spiritual person that always put GOD first.”
