Mother of Beating Victim Bobby Tillman Speaks Out

ATLANTA - The mother of Bobby Tillman, the 18-year-old who was brutally beaten to death at a party, said Wednesday that the country needs to come together and stop the kind of bullying that caused her son's death.

Police said four men beat and stomped Tillman in a senseless and random attack after a party in Douglas County.

Tillman's mother Monique Rivarde and her sister, Zulema Green talked about the tragic beating death of her son at the family’s home in Douglas County.

Rivarde said she has not watched the media interviews with some of the men investigators say are responsible for beating and stopping her son to death.

The Douglas County mother said she has a message of her own. Bullying has to stop.

After a party last weekend in Douglas County, detectives say Tillman was sitting on a car hood, when four men struck him, and eventually stomped on his chest causing a bone to penetrate his heart.

Investigators arrested Emmanuel Boykins, Horace Coleman, Quantez Mallory and Tracen Franklin.

Tillman’s family is planning an anti-bullying rally Thursday night in Douglasville.

In interviews with FOX 5, Boykins denied involvement and said it was someone else who attacked Tillman.

Coleman later said it was Boykins who confronted Tillman.
