Delano Middleton, 48, fatally stabbed 18-year-old JT Schroeder at a Walmart in Georgia on Whitemarsh Island late last month after the teen supposedly kicked his shopping cart.

According to WTOC, Middleton pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in 2021 after he repeatedly stabbed a woman in a grocery parking lot in an unprovoked attack.

Middleton was released early from prison and put on probation in 2023 after he stabbed a woman in a grocery store parking lot.

Schroeder died four days after he was stabbed.

“J.T.’s precious 18 year old son was murdered recently at the Walmart on Wilmington Island,” the family’s GoFundMe said.

“My dear friend JT , a father known for his magnetic personality , quick wit and unrelenting devotion to his two boys is now facing something no parent should ever have to plan for. J.T. is one of those rare people who fills every room with warmth , laughter , and light and is loved by so many. A devoted Dad who has worked hard to raise his boys with love and purpose . His precious son , little J.T , who is a mirror of his Father , was taken way too soon,” the GoFundMe read.

Middleton’s other stabbing victim, Erica Young, spoke out after JT Schroeder was stabbed to death.

“The system failed that kid’s family,” said Erica Young in an interview with WTOC.

“If they would have did their job in my case or the other cases, because there’s other victims besides myself, then he wouldn’t have been on the streets to be able to hurt a child,” said Young.

Young said she offered to help Middleton before he launched an attack and stabbed her.

“I asked him did he needed help finding his vehicle, and he shoved a cart over on top of me and just started stabbing me,” Young told WTOC.

Schroeder’s father, also named JT, said the police weren’t telling the full story when they claimed the younger Schroeder kicked Middleton’s shopping cart.

“My son was never, ever confrontational unless he was confronted first,” the father said.
