Jamal D. White Sr, Father of Jamal White Jr. Speaks Out Following Son’s Abduction
MILWAUKEE, WI – Jamal D. White Sr., the father of 7-year-old Jamal White Jr., who was abducted and later found safe, took to social media to express frustration over how he has been treated during the investigation.
“Y’all are foul for spreading these false narratives,” White wrote. “Even the police are treating me like I’m the bad guy. All that’s ever mattered to me is my son being okay.”
White said he spent all of Saturday in police custody being questioned, despite fully cooperating and sharing everything he knew at the time.
“I still haven’t even seen my son face-to-face,” he added. “They had me locked up all day while my child was still missing.”
He concluded by affirming his focus remains solely on his son, writing, “I don’t owe anybody anything—only my baby Jamal.”
Milwaukee Police have arrested three men at two separate locations linked to the abduction of 7-year-old Jamal White, who was taken at gunpoint on Friday, July 11, by a masked suspect outside his home on the city’s northwest side.
Jamal was found safe nearly 24 hours later on Saturday evening, July 12, approximately six and a half miles away from where he was abducted.
According to arrest records made public Sunday, the arrests were carried out at both the location where Jamal was found and the home from which he was taken.
One of the suspects, 25-year-old Corey Williams, was arrested at a residence in the 2000 block of North 39th Street, where Jamal was located. Williams was taken into custody at 5:45 p.m. on July 12 and is currently being held for a probation violation, police confirmed.
Additionally, two 27-year-old men were arrested at the home on West Hustis Street, the site of the abduction.
One individual was booked on tentative charges of resisting and obstructing an officer, while the second is being held on a tentative charge of second-degree recklessly endangering safety.
Jamal White Jr.’s uncle, Jamel White — the twin brother of the child’s father — has been arrested and booked in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin.
According to official records, Jamel White is currently in custody on pending charges.
Authorities have not yet released specific details regarding the nature of the charges or how they may be connected to the abduction case.
Police have not provided further details on the arrests or whether additional suspects are being sought. As of Sunday, formal charges had not been publicly confirmed.
Jamal was reportedly taken at gunpoint by an unidentified man wearing a black face mask and forced into a white Jeep Renegade outside his home in the 6200 block of West Hustis Street.
The abduction prompted an urgent search that concluded with the boy being found safe near 39th and Lloyd.
“Jamal has been located and is safe,” Milwaukee Police announced in a statement at 6:36 p.m. on July 12. “The Milwaukee Police Department would like to thank everyone for their assistance in this matter.”
The case remains under investigation.
Authorities have not disclosed a motive or the relationship, if any, between the suspects and the child.
