After Kentucky State University student De’Jon Fox Jr. was fatally shot by his classmate’s father, the victim’s parents are now facing criminal charges after they allegedly intimidated their son’s shooter.
De’Jon Fox, Sr., and Chardnae Cleveland were both charged with intimidation, according to Indiana online court records. WTHR reported that the duo are the parents of De’Jon Jr., who was killed at the age of 19 on December 9 on the Kentucky State University campus.
The intimidation charges stem from alleged threats that the two made against Jacob Bard, who was initially charged with the murder of their son, according to court records viewed by WTHR, WDRB and LEX18.
Bard was on the school’s campus to help his sons, who were students at the university, move out after they experienced issues with some of their classmates. Bard was arrested after authorities said he fatally shot De’Jon Jr. and wounded another student while at the college’s residence hall.
After the shooting took place, De’Jon Sr. allegedly wrote in a comment on Facebook, “YOU WILL FEEL THE SAME HURT I FEEL.” The comment was seemingly in reference to Bard.
Meanwhile, Cleveland has also been accused of writing concerning things about Bard. “I want his son dead just like mine,” one of her alleged posts read, according to the affidavit.
Father Shoots 2 Students, Kills 1 While Visiting Son on College Campus
Both De’Jon Sr. and Cleveland were arrested and have since been released from jail on bond. It is not currently clear if either person has entered a plea or if they have obtained legal representation.
The Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to Us Weekly’s request for comment.
Two weeks after the incident took place, a grand jury ultimately declined to indict Bard during a hearing on December 23. The decision came after his attorney, Scott Danks, argued that his client had acted in self-defense, according to the Associated Press. The outlet also reported that Bard’s attorney claimed his client only fired his gun after 20 to 30 people had gathered to attack his family.
The attorney claimed that Bard was at the campus to help his two sons move out of their dorms after they were withdrawn from campus following “multiple armed, violent” incidents against them, per the outlet.
“Jacob’s actions were absolutely justified under the law and were the only measure that prevented his son’s death or serious injury,” Bard’s attorney argued during the hearing.
Following the jury’s decision, Bard was released from prison and the charges against him were dropped.

Kentucky State University issued a statement to the campus community following the ruling, saying that the grand jury’s decision “does not lessen the pain our community continues to feel, nor does it change our priorities.
“Our commitment remains centered on supporting our students and ensuring Kentucky State University is a safe place to learn, live, and work,” the statement added.
The shooting involving Bard was the second to take place near the residence hall in four months. On August 17, someone fired multiple shots from a passing vehicle that struck two people who weren’t students at the university, according to the Associated Press.

For a long time, if you wanted to watch a movie on TV at home for free, you simply had to watch with a few commercials.
Well, if you don’t feel like shelling out the money for Netflix or HBO Max, you’re in luck: movies with ads still exist, they’re just on ad-supported streamers.
Platforms like Tubi, Pluto TV and even YouTube carry thousands of quality free movies in their libraries. This December, Watch With Us is highlighting some of the best.
Whether you want a big-budget comedy like Barbie or a prestige superhero movie like Batman Begins, you can watch it all for free at your fingertips.
New on Tubi in December 2025 — The Full List of All the Free Movies and TV Shows
Barbie (Margot Robbie) lives in the perfect dreamworld of Barbieland, where Barbies hold positions of power while all the Kens have to do is spend their days at the beach. However, when Barbie starts to experience an uncharacteristic existential crisis, she learns she must travel to the real world to see what’s going on with the girl who’s playing with her. Accompanied by a Ken (Ryan Gosling), Barbie searches for her owner while Ken gets some unsavory ideas about a newfangled concept called “the patriarchy.”
The Barbie phenomenon was certainly helped a bit by the “Barbenheimer” double-feature craze back in 2023, but make no mistake — Barbie is a fantastic and ingenious comedy film with or without the help of Christopher Nolan. Robbie and Gosling are the film’s standouts (Gosling in particular able to show off his comedic chops), but the entire cast works wonders: Will Ferrell, Kate McKinnon, Simu Liu and Michael Cera all give hilarious performances.
Thirty-five years following the events of Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, Blade Runner 2049 stars Ryan Gosling now stars in this sequel as LAPD Officer K, who hunts down and kills rogue replicant models — while also being a replicant himself. When K discovers a box containing shocking information following a mission, it threatens to destabilize the relationship between humans and replicants. K’s discovery is linked to missing blade runner Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), whom he goes on a quest to find.
While Blade Runner 2049 didn’t do so great at the box office, it was critically acclaimed and received a number of Academy Award nominations, winning two: Best Cinematography for Roger Deakins and Best Special Visual Effects. Ultimately, director Denis Villeneuve (Dune) expands upon Blade Runner in thoughtful and exciting ways, and the film manages to be an impressive visual feat distinct from the original as well.
The final installment in Daniel Craig‘s iteration as James Bond sees 007 finally leading a peaceful life in Jamaica, having since left active service in MI6. But, of course, that respite is merely momentary, and Bond is pulled back into his former work when an old CIA friend (Jeffrey Wright) shows up in need of his help. Bond must rescue a kidnapped scientist, but the mission becomes more arduous than expected and sends him down a dangerous path.
This epic conclusion to Craig’s chapter as Bond was met with warm response from fans and critics, praising the film not only for its exciting action sequences and slick style, but its ability to oscillate between comedy, drama, horror and romance with ease. In the end, the thrilling and visually stunning film is a fitting sendoff to Craig that ends up being far more moving than most people might expect.
This Batman origin story follows Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) from developing a fear of bats to his parents’ grisly murders, to his time in Bhutan training with the League of Shadows. But when he discovers the League’s intent to destroy the “corrupt” Gotham, he returns to the city intent on cleaning up crime sans killing. With the help of his butler (Michael Caine) and tech expert Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman), Batman takes on bad guys like the Scarecrow (Cillian Murphy).
Christopher Nolan’s take on Batman is credited with having revitalized the character after the poor showing in Batman & Robin from 1997. Nolan moved away from the camp of Joel Schumacher and the gothic kink of Tim Burton and turned Batman into a prestige drama film — and it paid off. Critics applauded Batman Begins for understanding the core of the character while bringing him into exciting and intelligent new territory. In the end, Batman Begins spawned a legendary trilogy.
The grand conclusion to the John Wick story (or is it?), John Wick: Chapter 4 follows the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 —Parabellum. Wick (Keanu Reeves) hides out in New York City with the Bowery King (Laurence Fishburne) as he recovers from having been shot. Now seeking revenge against the High Table, who want him dead, the price on Wick’s head grows higher and higher. But Wick’s final battle now goes global, as he finds himself targeted by assassins around the world in service of a powerful enemy.
5 Great Movies to Watch in Pluto TV’s “Holidays Are Brutal” Collection
John Wick: Chapter 4 manages to be more grandiose, violent and excessive than the previous three John Wick films, and yet the movie doesn’t suffer for it. Instead, this fourth film in the action franchise proves that there can never be too much when it comes to watching Keanu Reeves’ kick people’s butts. With fantastic set pieces, mesmerizing fight choreography, and genuinely solid performances, John Wick: Chapter 4 stands as a highlight in modern action blockbuster filmmaking.
