Facebook killer said goodbye to his mom
The mother of the man who allegedly killed a Cleveland retiree Sunday, then posted footage of the slaying on Facebook, said her son warned her the day before that she would never see him again.
“He said this (was) the last time I was going to see him,” Maggie Green, 53, told CNN.
Steve Stephens, 37, also told his mom, “If you see me again, it’ll be a miracle,” she said.
Stephens had stopped by her home Saturday, Green said.
On Sunday, Green said, she was left “dumbfounded” when she heard her son had been accused of gunning down the elderly man in a random shooting and uploading a video of the slaying to Facebook.
Green said she phoned Stephens on his cell phone. He told her he was “shooting people” because he was “mad with his girlfriend,” Green said.
A multistate search for Stephens is still under way.
In one video Stephens posted, he vowed to “keep killing… until they catch me.”
