Milwaukee — A 15-year-old has been charged with the fatal shooting of his older sister during a violent altercation earlier this month, an incident that has shocked family members and the local community. Hezile Frison faces first-degree intentional homicide charges in connection with the death of 30-year-old Ashley Hudson. Alongside him, his 21-year-old sister, Aaliyah Frison, is charged with aggravated battery, while their mother, 48-year-old Tara Hudson, is charged with obstructing an officer.
The altercation, which tragically ended in gunfire, unfolded on the night of June 16 and was streamed live on social media. Prosecutors allege that a recorded video captured the moments of chaos outside a location near Martin Luther King Drive and Vliet Street, where Hudson was attacked by two women wielding a baseball bat. The footage shows Hudson attempting to escape to her vehicle before she brandished a knife in a failed attempt to defend herself.
According to court documents, as the situation escalated, Hezile Frison allegedly drew a firearm and shot at his sister. Witnesses described frantic moments where onlookers could be heard pleading with him not to shoot. Subsequently, Ashley Hudson was seen fleeing but collapsed shortly afterward on the street corner where the incident took place.
Investigators have identified Aaliyah Frison as one of the attackers. Reports indicate that the conflict stemmed from familial tensions exacerbated by disputes posted on social media. The confrontation culminated in Aaliyah Frison and another juvenile confronting Ashley Hudson, leading to the altercation that ultimately escalated to gun violence.
Witnesses reported that Hezile Frison supported the assault on their sister out of loyalty to his other siblings. A witness claimed that tensions had built up over time and that the sisters had driven to the confrontation site to settle their grievances with Ashley Hudson.
Hezile initially denied being involved but later acknowledged his presence when shown footage from the incident. Police records reveal a chilling encounter as Frison responded apathetically upon being informed of his sister’s death, expressing a lack of remorse over the tragedy.
Aaliyah Frison also spoke to authorities, minimizing her role in the incident despite evidence showing her actively pursuing and striking her sister. Tara Hudson, who was at the scene, initially claimed she did not witness the shooting but later admitted having been close when it occurred.
This case puts a spotlight on domestic violence issues within families and the destructive impact of unresolved disputes. As the matter progresses through the judicial system, the community continues to grapple with the loss of Ashley Hudson and the circumstances leading to this devastating family tragedy. Legal proceedings are expected to unfold in the coming weeks as all parties prepare for trial.
