00:00Tymere was the type of person that you could always depend on.
00:05Long as the people around him were sitting care of, that's all he cared about.
00:10Tymere and Rodney was like total opposites.
00:14Everything with Rodney was a joke. He never really took nothing real serious.
00:18Tymere always tried to just play the big brother role to Rodney.
00:23Rodney, he embraced that street life.
00:26I'm under arrest? Yes, I'm what?
00:28Rodney didn't care about nobody but Rodney.
00:31At the end of the day, my heart was shattered in a million pieces.
00:40He was begging for his life and his mother was begging for his life.
00:43He killed my baby.
00:45You can't get any more cold hearted than that.
00:47That is truly an evil person.
00:58It's summer 2021 and brothers Tymere and Rodney enjoy a day out with their family, making social media videos at a water park.
01:15I have seven children. Me and my kids did everything together.
01:18Tymere was three years older than Rodney.
01:21For the most part, they got along.
01:23But they was the typical brothers.
01:25Tymere always been like the clown, like he always been funny.
01:30Why you got the hat on? Because it's green?
01:35Tymere would make you laugh and smile all the time.
01:39Rodney, I call him like the aggravator. He just like to mess with people.
01:46I mean, we was a big family, so it was always fun.
01:57Tymere Dial-Hale is born on January 2000, but his parents separate soon after his birth.
02:03Shortly after the pregnancy, we kind of broke up and we never got back together.
02:09We just raised Tymere together.
02:11Tymere was a happy-go-lucky little baby.
02:15Like, it was a joy to have.
02:19Everybody in my family loved Tymere.
02:22He was a mama's boy. He was sweet.
02:26My fifth child, Rodney, was born November the 8th of 2003.
02:31I don't think it made a difference that they did not have the same father,
02:35because I feel like my kids grew up knowing they had the same mother.
02:40The boys fought.
02:42My house was always loud, because I had more boys than girls.
02:46They argued, they disagreed, and then they was right back playing together.
02:51I feel like they was normal kids and they loved each other, but of course they had disagreements.
02:57Tymere's a good brother. He was a really good brother.
03:00Like, he wanted us to do the right thing and stay on the right path and just be like our best selves.
03:09He was my little brother, but he was like a big brother.
03:12He always been a protector.
03:15When Tymere is 12 and Rodney is 8, their family gets even bigger when Pinky gives birth to her seventh child, Jeremiah.
03:26When I got pregnant with Jeremiah, I think everybody was upset.
03:30I think everybody was like, we don't want no more kids here.
03:34But as Tymere and Rodney become teenagers, their lives start to go in very different directions.
03:50Rodney was always wanting to be tough.
03:55Tymere and Rodney was like total opposites.
03:59Tymere learned at a young age that you got to hustle to get money.
04:04He would shovel snow.
04:06He would cut grass.
04:08He never tried to go down the street life road.
04:12But for Rodney, he embraced that street life, the street culture.
04:17That was what he wanted for itself.
04:22Tymere always talked to me about how he would talk to Rodney and try to get him to turn this life around.
04:31And he like pops, he just ain't listening to me.
04:34I'm like, ain't nothing you could do.
04:37Tymere always tried to talk to Rodney about doing the right things.
04:43But it went in one ear and out the other.
04:49Once he got out of high school, he was determined.
04:52And he would tell me every day, Mom, I'm doing this for you.
04:55You want me to have a diploma? I'm going to get it.
05:00I was extremely happy when Tymere graduated from high school.
05:04Rodney didn't really start misbehaving to maybe about fourth, fifth grade.
05:09He didn't want to be in school.
05:11And he was very disrespectful to teachers.
05:13And by 12th grade, he just completely dropped out.
05:16It was hard raising teenage boys all together.
05:20But Rodney was definitely the one that gave me the most problems.
05:28As siblings growing up, when Rodney was at home, he was a normal person.
05:32We were all seen together.
05:35I think Rodney put on a persona for the streets.
05:38It's me, Rodney, and my friend.
05:41This was around the time me and Rodney spent a good amount of time together.
05:45We used to go to the rec after school sometime and just be kids.
05:50I love that video.
05:53It's me, Rodney, and Rodney in that video.
05:56It was like a little TikTok trend.
05:59It was funny.
06:01That's another TikTok of me and Rodney comparing our features.
06:06I had to force him to do it because people always said that we looked alike a lot.
06:11I don't really think Rodney had, like, any long-term goals.
06:16I think he just lived day by day.
06:20Rodney couldn't keep a job because Rodney had did so much bad things in the streets.
06:28Rodney would shoot at people and people would shoot at Rodney.
06:33Rodney was scared to go certain places because of who he might run into.
06:42Tymere worked with me at the Market Hall.
06:45We were cleaning the building.
06:47But when Tymere came, he made it fun.
06:49He would laugh.
06:50He would be the highlight of everybody's day.
06:52Tymere was watching my kids that day, and I came back early, and they was under the
07:08cover.
07:09He was telling them a story.
07:10Once upon a time, there was this thing called a story.
07:15And back in the day, people told the stories.
07:17You know what I'm saying?
07:18Yeah.
07:19And I just started recording because I thought it was so cute.
07:24He was a real present uncle.
07:28Tymere's first impression was always good.
07:31Even when my friends met him, they would just be like,
07:34Yo, brother's so nice.
07:35He's so sweet.
07:36He was kind of flirtatious too.
07:42When me and Tymere first started chatting, it was through Instagram.
07:48Tymere just started putting hard eyes on my pictures, telling me how beautiful I look,
07:54and stuff like that.
07:56And the messages.
07:57He was like, you're cute.
07:58And I'm like, you're cute.
07:59And I'm just like, let's be cute together.
08:02We went on our first date in December of 2020.
08:06We went bowling.
08:07My first impression of Tymere was that he was really down to earth, like a very caring man.
08:14Tymere described Rodney as his younger, annoying brother that he loved.
08:19He would do anything for Rodney.
08:22The first time that I got on the phone with Tymere, Rodney came into the room.
08:28He pretty much did say, shut up, bitch, pretty much.
08:32And I was just like, who are you talking to?
08:34I don't have to shut up.
08:36And Rodney told me, I will be the **** without you.
08:40Rodney was definitely one of them boys that I would say I stayed away from.
08:46Rodney loved guns.
08:48He made it very clear that that was the life that he lived and the life that he loved to live.
08:54You never know what a person could do.
08:57As he had gotten older, he was not a person you would really want to be around.
09:03Rodney didn't care about nobody but Rodney.
09:07I think the whole family felt as if Rodney did have a problem.
09:12I believe that if you mix with the wrong people, bad things are going to happen.
09:24I'm looking at you.
09:32Tymere was working at a cleaning job at the Market Hall, Sugar Heights, Ohio.
09:42I ended up going to his house and meeting his mom and his family.
09:47And then we were inseparable.
09:50When Tymere first met Nina, it was fast.
09:53And she instantly moved in with us.
10:00Nina became a part of our family.
10:02I grew to love her like a sister.
10:04Me and Tymere, when we met, we started talking about kids roughly like six months in.
10:11It was fast paced.
10:12We having a baby!
10:14We having a **** baby!
10:17When Tymere found out I was pregnant, he was ecstatic.
10:20I think it's my name real quick.
10:22What's up, Daddy Chicken Dumpling?
10:26He was phenomenal throughout the pregnancy.
10:29Tymere never missed a beat when it came to our child, ever.
10:35He swore it was a boy.
10:37I knew it wasn't no boy.
10:39And I looked at him and said, you're going to cry when it's a girl.
10:43It's fall of 2021.
10:45And 21-year-old Tymere and 19-year-old Nina throw a gender reveal party for their family and friends.
10:52We all just came out to see what he was having.
10:56And he was determined to make sure that a truck had whatever color powder come out.
11:02Five, four, three, two, one.
11:07One!
11:08Ah!
11:09Ah!
11:10Ah!
11:11Oh my God!
11:13Ah!
11:15When the pink smoke came out, Tymere was mad.
11:19Yeah!
11:20Don't go!
11:22Don't go!
11:23Don't go!
11:24We're going right back!
11:26We're going right back!
11:27And he made a comment and he said, that's okay Nina, we're going to run it back.
11:32It was the funniest thing because I was like, dude, you don't pick your kids.
11:37Your kids pick you.
11:39Rodney didn't show up to the gender reveal, but I think Tymere understood that his brother
11:44was in the streets and not family-oriented like him.
11:49Rodney just didn't care.
11:51He just had this kind of like, I don't care if you like me or not attitude.
11:57At only 18 years of age, Rodney is also about to become a father.
12:02Rodney wasn't as excited as Tymere was to become a father.
12:06Rodney was just, oh, it is what it is.
12:09She's pregnant, you know.
12:10Rodney's son's mother, they wasn't in a relationship.
12:14I think Rodney probably wasn't as excited because Rodney didn't have anything.
12:19He didn't have a job.
12:20I don't think Rodney was prepared to care for a child.
12:26Rodney was the type of person to get angry very quickly.
12:29You say one little thing to him and he's going from zero to 100 in a second.
12:38When I was pregnant, Jeremiah and Rodney were having a disagreement.
12:43And Jeremiah was so much younger than him.
12:47So I intervened and I did tell Rodney, stop, that's your little brother.
12:52Rodney did not like that.
12:54Rodney got in my face, threatening me, screaming in my face.
12:57I was fearful of him because, for one, he's a man and I'm pregnant.
13:04And for two, the aggression, the look in his eyes, he's angry.
13:08I think Tymere and him, they were cool after it.
13:10You know, they're brothers.
13:11I would never try to get between brothers.
13:12I didn't talk to Rodney for a couple months.
13:16Me and Tymere decided that we wanted to move into our own apartment because, you know, it was time we started our own family, begin our own life.
13:26Me and Tymere moved into my apartment October 15, 2021.
13:30I went into labor with Nalani, February 15th.
13:37Tymere was just there the whole time, rubbing my back, talking me through it.
13:42He did end up doing an emergency C-section.
13:44He was there through it all.
13:46Tymere was the first person to hold her.
13:49Say cheese.
13:51Cheers.
13:53First time that I seen Tymere really cradle Nalani and really get in father mode, it warmed my heart.
14:01He did most of the nurturing.
14:04He did the most of the getting up in the middle of the night.
14:08Always made the bottles, changed the diapers because he knew that I was healing.
14:14Look, right here, I'm your daddy.
14:17Yeah.
14:19Nalani loved her dad.
14:23He was a wonderful, wonderful father.
14:25You should have seen him with her. He was amazing.
14:35Ah.
14:36Ah.
14:39Ah.
14:43Rodney's day would consist of sleeping the majority of the day and then going outside.
14:48So when you got your child, you can't just sleep all day and then go outside.
14:52I just don't believe Rodney was ready for a child.
14:56Sometimes I would be like, you know, get him.
14:58But he would get his son and be so frustrated.
15:01He didn't care what I said.
15:04He was running with the wrong people.
15:06It's March 2022.
15:09Tymere and Rodney's younger brothers are driving through the city at night.
15:17Tymere's younger siblings, Rondell and Jeremiah, were all in a car together with Rodney's girlfriend.
15:23And the car was shot up.
15:27I looked back to check on Jeremiah. I said, Jeremiah, are you okay?
15:33But when I looked back, he was laying on the floor and he had blood on the back of his head.
15:39At that point, I knew he was hurt, but I just didn't know where.
15:43So I caught, and I went on. And they came fast. Not even two minutes fast.
15:50It was like five cop cars and an ambulance.
15:53They pulled him out the car, laid him on the ground, cut his clothes off.
16:00Jeremiah was shot. He was struck in his chest and twice in his legs, and he was grazed three times.
16:09Jeremiah should have never had to experience nothing like that.
16:13I believe that they thought that Rodney was in that car, and I believe that they maybe had a run-in prior to that.
16:20And that was the outcome of it.
16:23Jeremiah was 10 years old when he was shot.
16:26He was in the hospital for a week, but he was okay.
16:30He didn't suffer any major damage.
16:32Tymere was really hurt by it, and Rodney was really hurt by it, because Rodney felt like it was for him.
16:40He kept saying that he wished he'd have been in the car.
16:44We always told Rodney, you need to put the gun down.
16:47You need to do something better with your life.
16:49Timere definitely expressed to Rodney how he felt that he should try to change his life.
16:59But Rodney just didn't want to hear it.
17:02Rodney was disrespectful. He didn't care what I said.
17:05No matter how much I chased him, no matter how much he did not care at all.
17:11I feel as if Rodney was consistently putting his whole family in danger.
17:16Rodney was a ticking time bomb, waiting to go off.
17:19As he got older, Rodney did become more violent.
17:36I don't know what it was that made him become that way.
17:41an image he had to portray, or if it was just really who he was.
17:48I do think that sometimes Rodney did think that Tymere was my favorite child.
17:56It's not that Tymere was my favorite, or that I loved him more, but he was a little bit more responsible.
18:02Me and Rodney got into it at my mother's house.
18:10It started over something petty, and he said that he was going to go put his gun up, and come back downstairs, and hit me.
18:19And that's what happened. He came downstairs, and he hit me, so I hit him back.
18:26I remember the police pulling up, and they arrested both of us, and we both were in jail together.
18:37When I found out that Rodney did put his hands on Yana, and they were both in jail,
18:42I knew then that he didn't care about anything.
18:48I knew then that he could harm someone.
18:51I stayed away from Rodney, for the most part, for a couple months.
18:57I just felt like I didn't want me or my baby around that.
19:02But Tymere is busy focusing on his career, and providing for his family.
19:08Tymere started working security at a school, at a charter school.
19:11He would come home every day with a story, and he would just be so excited about how he impacted some child's life.
19:22He was a security officer at the school with me.
19:28He was a natural. Like, the kids loved him.
19:32They really, truly loved Tymere.
19:34I believe that Rodney had some type of jealousy or envy.
19:40I believe he was probably jealous of Tymere's whole life.
19:45Rodney got in a lot of trouble.
19:47But it's hard to just say, oh, I give up on my child, because he is my child.
19:51I guess I was just being a mother and thought that that was the right thing to do, to just still love him regardless.
19:56I think Rodney wanted my attention, so he would get it anyway, even if it was in a negative way.
20:04In July 2023, Wycliffe Police Department received another 911 call about Rodney.
20:11911, what's your emergency?
20:13Hi, my daughter is at the Green Ridge Hotel, and her ex-boyfriend showed up, and he has a gun on him.
20:24He shot her car up recently.
20:28What is his name?
20:30His name is Rodney Curley. He's just harassing her.
20:34So she said that he has his gun, and did he show it to her?
20:37Yes, yes.
20:38He called me and asked me to come pick him up from a hotel.
20:43Once I got close to the hotel, I seen a bunch of police cars.
20:48And from what they said, he beat her up in the hotel room.
20:53Somebody called the police and said he had the gun.
20:57Stop barking. Turn around and face away from me.
21:00Turn around and face away from me.
21:02Bring his money back.
21:04Bring his money back.
21:05Come on, don't.
21:06So the police stopped him, and he didn't have the gun on him.
21:11But they took him to jail because she had a knot on her head.
21:15She was pregnant with his second child.
21:17You can sit back down first.
21:19You're going to sit back down. You can see me through the window.
21:22Okay.
21:23Okay.
21:24If you're not going to comply, we'll charge you with obstructing, too.
21:27I'm giving you a lawful order. You're under arrest.
21:29You're going to sit back in the car.
21:30I'm under arrest?
21:31Yes, sir.
21:32Put your feet back in the car.
21:33I'm under arrest.
21:34I'm under arrest.
21:35I'm under arrest.
21:36I'm under arrest.
21:37Sit back down.
21:39Sit back down, Ronnie.
21:40It's really sickening to me that any man could be violent to a woman.
21:45He was arrested.
21:46Ronnie went to jail for about two days, and he was put on probation.
21:49on probation. For Rodney to actually put his hands on a woman that is carrying a child,
21:57his child at that was mind-boggling. That's when I did start to see that Rodney was spiraling.
22:05I started to see Rodney being more angrier, evil, mean. I think Tymira gave up on trying to tell
22:13Rodney to be different. I thought if I move out of the neighborhood, I could keep him from trouble.
22:23Getting a new house is starting over. It was hard finding the house because of Rodney,
22:29because it was like everywhere that I looked for a house, Rodney would say,
22:33I can't live there. So Rodney said he had ops. That means he has enemies.
22:37After like maybe like a couple of months of searching for a house, I'm at the point where
22:42I'm like, we gonna be homeless in the minute if I keep on turning down houses.
22:46So I just decided to take the house.
22:51Moving day arrives for Pinky and her family.
22:54Tymira left for work. So we started back in the U-Haul. But to me, Rodney was like a little off.
23:02He would see a car and he would be like, who is that? You know, every time. So he was a little jumpy.
23:07Probably about 3.30, 4 o'clock. I dropped Rodney off at the old house. When I got back to the old
23:14house, Tymira and Nina was pulling up. She said she had to work. And I'm like, I'll take the baby.
23:22When I got to the new house, Tymira came with the air conditioner. It was fairly hot. Tymira said,
23:27I'm gonna take this air conditioner upstairs. And Rodney says, don't take all that stuff upstairs.
23:31You're wasting our time. And Tymira was like, stop talking to me. He went upstairs.
23:36They go back outside and they're in the U-Haul. But now they're arguing like, like really arguing.
23:43and I have a man. Do you need police ambulance or fire?
24:12he said hello a boy just shot a boy right here on our street and the boy is on the ground

31:59but she provided a screenshot
32:01of a map
32:02that may be the location

32:52and i was the only witness
32:53you know i was the only person that could really say
32:55he was the person who did this
32:57he had already killed his brother

33:25but when they interviewed us on the news
33:27i basically just wanted to tell rodney

33:30so that not only would he be safe
33:34but other people would be safe
33:35because we'll turn yourself in
33:37don't hurt anybody else

34:11man the whole city the whole community
34:15came out like it was amazing
34:18the hardest part was seeing him in the casket
34:22because it's like once they marry you you're gone forever
34:26it was hard to deal with that
34:31it was hard giving him my last kiss
34:35on november 16th
34:40on november 16th investigators make a breakthrough in their hunt for rodney
34:45rodney was found to be hiding out in a house in the city of east cleveland
34:50as soon as rodney understood that the canine unit was coming in the house
35:00he came out of the basement and gave himself up
35:04less than two hours after the fugitive unit arrested rodney
35:12he was in the interview room with a detective leg
35:16so do you want to share your version of the events or tell us what happened that day that led to whatever happened happening
35:23i'm telling you like stop
35:25like now again that's what i said
35:27i'm like but stop crying like a bitch
35:28you can cry like a bitch all day
35:30stop crying like a bitch
35:31i'm like shit
35:34i don't mind it's like that
35:36you know i didn't see my gun
35:38so clearly was claiming self-defense he was claiming that our victim tamir
35:42had a gun on him
35:45which there was zero evidence of and zero history of by the way
35:49so he looked down and see my gun and see his university
35:52like when he was talking to me when this happened
35:54from his left hand he had a gun like this
35:56he could grab my gun
35:58he tried to go like this
36:04then he was claiming that there was a tussle over his gun
36:33you know between the two of them
36:35mr curly was you know forgetting at some point that his mother was standing right next to him
36:41when this was going on
36:42the medical examiner's office determined that tamir had 16 gunshot wound defects in his body
36:50and it was labeled a homicide
36:52he didn't seem in any way shape or form remorseful
36:57he was in self-preservation mode
36:59mr curly wanted to blame everybody but himself
37:11rodney is indicted on charges of aggravated murder
37:16murder
37:17involuntary manslaughter
37:19felonious assault
37:20and aggravated menacing
37:21didn't want to have to subject me or my other children to testify in
37:27a trial would have been unfair
37:29because rodney knew what he did
37:32the defense requests a plea of 10 to 12 years
37:36as a mother of both of them
37:40i felt like 10 to 12 years wasn't fair
37:43because he killed his brother
37:45so i told the prosecutor not to tell me any plea deals
37:50if it wasn't over 20 years
37:52just take what your punishment and take accountability
37:56rodney pleads guilty to involuntary manslaughter with a firearm
38:03two counts of felonious assault with a firearm
38:06and aggravated menacing
38:07when i got there i couldn't breathe
38:10so all i could really get out was a couple of words
38:14i just wouldn't want to say that
38:16i love rodney so much
38:19i love time here so much
38:20and i miss them both so much
38:22i don't even know what to say
38:23it's terrible
38:24but that day was the worst day of my life
38:27because i knew that that day i was losing both of my sons
38:30i didn't know how to do what everybody wanted me to do
38:35i feel like maybe if he felt my pain
38:38from my words it would hit him that this is reality
38:42i believe that that was when he realized that
38:46he had destroyed his family
38:49he genuinely apologized in that moment now if it was genuine i don't know but in that moment
39:02it felt genuine
39:03i couldn't tell him i hated him
39:06i couldn't because i don't i don't hate him i hate what he did
39:10this is my victim impact statement that i didn't get the opportunity to read to the judge
39:17in front of the monster that was sitting in the court
39:21i'm here for my son who was the best child you could ask for
39:27he was loved by everyone
39:30the only enemy he had in life was in his own household
39:34what the killer did to me was rip my heart out
39:40rodney is sentenced to 23 to 28 years in prison
39:46rodney absolutely committed a monstrous act
39:49there's nothing worse than killing your brother in front of your mother in my opinion
39:55i cry every day
39:59that hurt
40:00everybody in my family is devastated by this
40:05timir was everything to me timir was my best friend
