Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez today announced that a Brooklyn man has been sentenced to 18 years to life in prison for fatally stabbing his grandfather with a machete and wounding two other family members, including a 4-year-old niece, during a rampage at the family’s home in Bedford-Stuyvesant.

The District Attorney identified the defendant as Dayquan Dubose, 26, of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. He was sentenced on Friday, December 13, 2024 by Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Michael Kitsis to 18 years to life in prison following his guilty plea to second-degree murder on November 14, 2024.

The District Attorney said that, according to the evidence, on January 3, 2021, at approximately 5 p.m., the defendant got into an argument with his four-year-old niece. The defendant pulled out an 18-inch machete and cut the young girl on the hip. The defendant then went up to a second-floor apartment where an uncle let him in. The defendant proceeded to walk into a bedroom where his 79-year-old grandfather, James Dubose Sr., and his 49-year-old brother-in-law were watching television. The defendant began to stab the grandfather in the abdomen. When the brother-in-law intervened, and attempted to grab the machete, the defendant slashed the brother-in-law on the hand. Two additional family members were able to hold the defendant down until police arrived at the apartment and arrested him.

i don't understand how the law justifies or can classify murder ... the only classification should be if you kill someone is self defense( i don't mean somone coming at you with bare fist and you take out your gun or knife and use it and "say i was in fear for my life"... hell i know i can run much faster scared than mad or accidently ex: a car accident not i was beating, stabbing, shooting that person and i "accidently killed him/her".... to me, if pre-meditated or not, you kill someone in both cases you had a choice... like "i didn't mean to kill my child" then why the hell were you beating that child??? murder is murder someone ends up death... they can't come back i say "i didn't mean to be dead"....
