Prather and his ex-wife, Latoya Andrews (^ pictured with her children), had been divorced for five years. Just prior to the killings, they'd been exchanging heated texts about taxes and child support.
Police say Prather, 33, shot six people (killing four of them) before killing himself. Investigators say he shot his ex-wife and her boyfriend 33-year-old Joseph Terry Brown.
He also shot and killed two of the children he and Andrews had together: seven-year-old daughter London Prather and nine-year-old son Jerimiah Prather. Fifteen-year-old Demesha Owens was also shot, but survived. She is Andrew's daughter but was raised by Prather. Seven-year-old Jada Brown, the daughter of Andrews and Brown, also survived the shooting. The two survivors are in critical but stable condition.
Another teenage boy, 13-year-old Jarrod Prather, was not at the home at the time of the shooting.
