Brothers who killed Ethan Liming, stomped on his chest, broke his neck and took his car at LeBron James’ school sentenced, only 6 months and 18 months each
An investigation revealed that Liming's chest had been stomped on, though the official cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head.

Kristi Lang, Liming’s aunt, spoke at the hearing on the pain the family has gone through.
"You have shattered our family. We were once so close sharing weekly family meals, celebrating every birthday and holiday. Now we can barely get together because the loss of Ethan hurts so much and we have no words to comfort each other. We feel lost because he is absent and he will never join us again,” said Lang.
