• Share on:

Adrianne Rodriguez has endured the tragic loss of three children to gun violence, including her son Nizzear in 2014 and her pregnant daughter Shaniyah in 2023. On October 27, 2023, a DeKalb County jury found Shaniyah's boyfriend, Diamonte Haithcoats, guilty of malice murder and other charges, sentencing him to two life sentences plus five years. Rodriguez expressed relief at the verdict while grappling with her grief, as her granddaughter Milliani also passed away shortly after birth, and she hopes to channel her heartbreak into something positive in the future.
