Terrill Smith's mother Genniece Smith said she knows Brown and his family.

"I know the whole family. They know me. We know their history. They know our history," she said.

Authorities believe a Facebook argument led to the shooting.

Terrill's mom says not everyone found the humor in her son’s comedy routine which was sometimes filled with insults, but she said Brown and his family also used insults to attack Terrill and his family.

"I’m going to tell you I love my son, but a lot of times I would tell him, 'Terrill, don’t argue with these people,'" Genniece said. "They didn’t take it like he took it, so it cost him his life."

Brown is 5-foot-9 inches, and weighs approximately 160 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes. A $1,500 reward is being offered for his arrest.
