On Monday, 13-year-old Cartrail Robertson posted a picture of himself brandishing a 3.57 Magnum handgun onto Facebook - hours later he was accidentally shot dead by his 15-year-old friend.

Indeed, the baby-faced Memphis teenager uploaded a veritable gallery of disturbing gangster-style excess to Facebook that shows him holding another handgun, reclining in a chair smoking pot and fanning a huge wad of $100 and $50 bills.

His friends too have posted shocking images - in many of the pictures they appear to be waving semi-automatic weapons and in one staggering picture two teens are messing around with a handgun, pointing it towards a boys head.

And while police have declared the investigation into Robertson's tragic death at the hands of Darrin Wilson, 'closed', their focus has shifted to discovering how two children managed to get hold of drugs, that much money and ultimately, the weapons.
'There is an ongoing investigation in regards to how they obtained the guns,' Vince Higgins of the Shelby County District Attorney General Office, told ABC News.

Robertson was found dead at around 3am on Tuesday morning and police have determined that he and Wilson were playing with a gun - presumably one of the two posted to Facebook - when it accidentally went off.
Wilson has been taken to juvenile detention and is charged with reckless homicide.

However, in the wake of Robertson's death, his Facebook profile reveals he and others in deeply unsettling images of teens posing with guns, apparent drugs paraphernalia and large sums of money.
Robertson, Wilson and his friends are also seen giving what appear to be gang hand signals and in other pictures they are showing off bottles of alcohol.

In the Facebook picture that shows the pile of money, Robertson comments that it is (sic) 'time tah get mehh another 45th' with the hashtag of 'shooter' - an apparent reference to a .45 caliber handgun.

And in another image showing Robertson smoking, the 13-year-old mentions drugs and tags his friend Darrin Wilson saying, (sic) 'blowin wit that hotboy'.

On January 1st, Robertson uploaded a picture of himself in which he is seen holding a bottle of alcohol in which he boasts, (sic) 'am gettin money on hoezz y u smokein ya life away.'

His prophetic prediction for 2014 is, (sic) 'In am lettin bulletts spkky.....Murder!!!'

In other pictures uploaded by friends of Robertson tagged in his last Facebook post, the gallery of jaw-dropping pictures continues.

While the images do not appear to feature Robertson, Wilson or his friend exclusively, their shocking content is undeniable.

In many of the pictures the boys featured are brandishing handguns and have photographed shotguns and cash.

One particularly upsetting image shows one boy pointing a gun at another's head as they apparently clown around on a front porch.

In another image - what appear to be three boys older than Robertson and Wilson are seen counting cash while holding an assault rifle that resembles an AK-47.

Shelby County District Attorney General Office said police are going through the photos on Robertson's Facebook page, as well as his friends' Facebook pages.

Robertson was shot at the home of a friend while their mother and her boyfriend were at work.

The boyfriend, who owns the Memphis home told police that he does not own a gun and that he is baffled as to where it came from.

Before the Facebook posts became apparent, neighbors and police assumed that the gun was obtained inside the home on the 600 block of Hillcrest Street.

Neighbors were alarmed when they learned the age of the shooting victim.

'Thirteen. Still a baby,' said Walter Holston.

Stupid kids being influenced by the gangsta lifestyle.

I'm just gonna say it. It's probably a good thing he was killed as he was going down a road of drugs, murder, and crime.

Where's the part where the family says "he was such a good boy with plans to go to college".

I'm trying to have a heart as he was only 13, but to be honest, I don't think he would have been a productive member of society in years to come. "The boyfriend" says he doesn't own a gun, ppffffttt, he doesn't own a gun legally.

Poor lad probably didnt know anything different.

As of this time, close friend Lorrypath Whoseson is said to be devastated yet unavailable for comment.

these kids mimic what they see in videos and on tv, thank our "gangsta" celebrities......

[clndstn46]

smh kids always accidentally shooting themselves or others.
Also I'd be crazy mad if one of my friends pointed a gun to my head regardless of whether or not it's loaded.

His whole life was a self-fulfilling prophecy just waiting to come true. Nothing surprising or shocking about this. Anyone with a name like "Cartrail" isnt really going to progress in life are they lol!!
