The parents of 8-year-old Secoriea Turner, who was killed in Atlanta on Saturday night when a group of people opened fire on a car that she was traveling in, sounded off on their daughter's death during a press conference on Sunday, and noted the seemingly empty words of Black Lives Matter activists.

The location of the shooting was in a parking lot across the street from the now burned-out Wendy's, which has been occupied by demonstrators since Brooks' death at the hands of an Atlanta police officer.


Turner's mother and father appeared with Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms during a press conference on Sunday where they expressed their feelings over the tragedy.
