Kaden Moses: 10.1 Million Views and Growing: The Fight for Justice Continues

10.1 Million Views and Growing: The Fight for Justice for Kaden Moses

The heartbreaking death of 14-year-old Kaden Moses on December 30, 2023, has left his family in Clinton, South Carolina, reeling with grief and searching for answers. Although classified as a homicide by the Laurens County Coroner’s Office, no one has been held accountable for his death. Kaden was found shot in the side of his head with a .243 bolt-action rifle, a tragic end to what seemed like an ordinary evening spent playing video games with a friend. The tragedy of that cold December night has now become a rallying cry for justice, with literally millions joining the conversation online.

The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) took over the investigation, but the case has now been closed with no one to account for her son’s murder. Correspondence between SLED and Kaden’s mother, Erika Moses, reveals a closed investigation that has yet to provide the family with the information they desperately need. This news agency was the first to report on this exclusive case, we asked the lingering questions, and why justice remains so elusive for Kaden and his loved ones.

A video of Kaden’s mother, Erika Moses, describing the heart-wrenching moment she found her son, has garnered over 10.1 million views. Erika’s raw, emotional account has captivated the nation, inspiring widespread calls for action. As part of this effort, we are slowly releasing the 911 tapes from that night in hopes of raising awareness of Kaden’s case and compelling the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) to reopen the investigation with the new evidence we have uncovered.

Listen to a portion of the original 911 call from Kaden’s mother to 911 here.

A Case That Demands Answers

The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) initially took over the investigation but later closed it without holding anyone accountable for Kaden’s death. Correspondence between SLED and Erika reveals a deeply unsatisfying conclusion to a case that has left the family shattered and searching for justice. This news agency was the first to report on this exclusive case, ask the lingering questions, and explore why justice remains so elusive for Kaden and his loved ones.

The Night Everything Changed

On the night of December 30, 2023, Kaden was home with a friend—referred to as “Henry” to protect his identity—while his family members were in other parts of the house. According to witness statements, Kaden was playing video games and on the phone with his girlfriend, “Mae,” when he told her he was going to check on Henry, who had gone outside. Shortly thereafter, Kaden and Henry returned to Kaden’s room.

Mae, still on a video call with Kaden, described the moments leading up to the gunshot. She reported that Kaden’s gaming character on Roblox remained active right up until the gun was fired, suggesting he was playing with both hands when the rifle discharged. Moments later, Mae heard Kaden exclaim, “What are…” before the fatal shot rang out. Henry then claimed that Kaden had shot himself.

The Investigation’s Glaring Omissions

The evidence raises critical questions about the investigation:

• Ballistics and Scene Control: The Laurens County Sheriff’s Office and SLED failed to collect critical forensic evidence, including gunshot residue (GSR) from Henry, his fingerprints, or his clothes.
• Tampering Allegations: Witnesses, including neighbors and family members, allege that Henry’s mother and sister helped him change clothes to avoid detection of gunpowder residue.
• Delayed Action: Henry was not interrogated by law enforcement until weeks later and invoked his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent.
• 911 Tapes and Bodycam Evidence: Key footage from the scene has not been fully released, with Erika only receiving audio recordings, not video, from the responding officers’ body cameras.

The Power of Public Awareness

The release of Erika’s video and the gradual unveiling of the 911 tapes have galvanized public attention. The Moses family hopes this visibility will prompt SLED to revisit the case, particularly in light of:

• Statements from Kaden’s family and friends, which suggest Henry’s inconsistent behavior and possible culpability.
• Eyewitness accounts alleging tampering with evidence, including the possible removal of Henry’s original clothing.
• New leads stemming from public tips and media scrutiny.

A Call to Action

Kaden’s family has launched a GoFundMe page to assist with the costs of securing a gravestone, addressing ongoing medical care for Kaden’s younger siblings, and hiring legal and investigative resources to pursue justice. The family’s goal is clear: uncover the truth about what happened that night and hold those responsible accountable.

This campaign is not just about Kaden—it is about holding law enforcement accountable for ensuring thorough investigations and preventing similar tragedies from being swept aside.
