Family of Oklahoma man slain refuses to grant forgiveness to death row convict


Kenneth Meers grew up working at the Root-N-Scoot convenience store in Oklahoma City with his brother, eventually buying it and becoming a beloved part of the community. In 1992, he was tragically killed during a robbery at the store, and Emmanuel Littlejohn was convicted for his murder. Littlejohn has maintained his innocence, claiming he was not the shooter.

The upcoming execution of Littlejohn has brought renewed attention to Meers’ life and the crime that took it. Witnesses have conflicting accounts of who the shooter was, but Littlejohn was ultimately sentenced to death while his accomplice received life in prison.

Meers was described as kind-hearted, hard-working, and dedicated to helping those in need. He regularly bought groceries and necessities for those struggling in the community and held a Christmas raffle for neighborhood children. His family supports Littlejohn’s execution, feeling the loss deeply and unable to forgive his role in their son’s death.

As the execution date nears, the debate over Littlejohn’s guilt and the fairness of his punishment continues. The community remembers Meers for his generosity and the positive impact he had on those around him, leaving a lasting legacy even after his tragic death.
