OKLAHOMA CITY -
Murder charges have been dropped against a teenager accused of involvement in a robbery that led to the police shooting death of 15-year-old Stavian Rodriguez in November.
However, 17-year-old Wyatt Cheatham will plead guilty to robbery with a firearm, as an adult, with a sentence of eight years in prison and seven years of probation, according to the Oklahoma County District Attorney s office. Cheatham was initially charged with first-degree murder, as a juvenile, and robbery with a firearm.
Rodriguez died Nov. 23 after officers were called to a robbery in progress at the Okie Gas & Express store, located in the 7900 block of South Western Avenue in Oklahoma City. According to police, Rodriguez did not follow the commands of the police officers on scene. Multiple officers discharged their weapons, which resulted in (Rodriguez s) death.

In moments between confusion over why her 15-year-old boy was armed with a gun inside a south Oklahoma City store and anger toward the police officers who shot him to death, Cameo Holland, otherwise stoic as she speaks, breaks down in tears when she remembers the color of her dead son’s eyes.
“He had hazel eyes,” she said. “Of all my kids, he was the only one that looked like me. Bluish-green and in the very center they had some brown. And a few yellow spots.”
The last time Holland saw Stavian Rodriguez, one of her four children, a funeral home presented him the best way it could, but the grieving mother couldn’t help but notice little marks around one of his eyes, and the strange touch of his young body, which was packed in parts to fill bullet wounds.

OKLAHOMA CITY -
Cameo Holland, the mother of Stavian Rodriguez, and her attorney will file a federal lawsuit against Oklahoma City and the officers who fatally shot her son following an armed robbery.
“That incident, that s not who he was. That s something that he did,” said Holland, who spoke to reporters alongside her attorney Rand Eddy.
Rodriguez, 15, was killed in November after officers shot him 13 times outside of Okie Gas & Express. Rodriguez attempted to rob the store and was ultimately locked inside by the clerk before police arrived.
Five police officers fired the shots at Rodriguez seconds after he climbed out of a store window, dropped his weapon, and reached for his back left pocket. After one officer fired a less-than-lethal round, the other officers shot and fatally wounded Rodriguez.
