John Curtis Davis: 25-year-old man accused of murdering his 4-year-old nephew with a pellet gun Friday.
OPP, Ala. -- A judge ordered John Curtis Davis to get treatment for his anger management problems, but the 25-year-old man now accused of killing his 4-year-old nephew with a point-blank pellet gun shot never sought the counseling, a relative told the Andalusia Star-News.
Authorities have said that Davis has confessed to murdering his nephew, Curtis Ruede, 4, by shooting him in the chest with a pellet gun Friday, July 16. Court records show Davis had a history of domestic violence and and, in 2009, he was ordered to undergo anger management counseling after his third domestic violence incident.
