Kansas City teen charged with murder in revenge killing

KANSAS CITY (AP) — Court records say a Kansas City teen told detectives he killed another man because he believed the victim was responsible for shooting his brother and wanted him to feel the same pain.

Eighteen-year-old Taylor Mackey is jailed on $25,000 bond after he was charged Thursday with second-degree murder and three other felonies in the death of Isaac Louis Brown. No attorney is listed for him in online court records.

Court records say Mackey and his younger brother were questioned after surveillance video linked them to last week’s shooting.

The records say Mackey told detectives that he and his brother approached Brown and talked to him before they both pulled out their guns and shot him once. He says he was thinking, “this was his time to ‘Get him.”
