DJ Sumbody’s family perform cleansing ritual at crime scene

After DJ Sumbody's murder, his family performed a cleansing ritual at the crime scene, as reported previously by Briefly News. TikTok user @angelsebothoma316 posted a video of DJ Sumbody's family at the crime scene performing a cleansing ceremony.

The ceremony is a spiritual practice where many believe that the spirit of the dead must be collected from the place of death. This is done to ensure that the deceased can rest peacefully, especially if they died violently. One relative was overcome with grief and broke down during the sad TikTok video. The police were present with the family, and it looked like the car with countless bullet holes was about to be towed.
