Mother Finds Peace After Son’s Tragic Loss | New Orleans News
Description
In a heartbreaking twist of justice, the mother of slain comedian Brandon Montrell — known as Boogie B — is finding some solace as two men are arrested and charged in his December 2022 murder. After enduring unimaginable losses before — including her infant daughter to SIDS and a son to suicide — Sherilyn Price has channeled her grief into relentless advocacy. One shooter, Charles Cannon, accepted a plea deal for 15 years; the other, Jabril Cowart, pleaded guilty in August after allegedly sparking the deadly confrontation over a dispute involving Cannon’s brother. With Cowart’s sentencing looming, Price’s journey has culminated in legislative action, testifying before Congress and collaborating with law enforcement using AI to solve the case. Despite falling crime rates, she remains devoted to supporting other grieving mothers and plans to honor her son’s legacy with a comedy festival.
