A woman whose brother was murdered over four years ago is speaking out for the first time since one of the killers was offered a plea deal.
In Jan. 2020, 25-year-old Tavares Norah and 27-year-old Prince Robertson murdered 63-year-old Felix Cosme at an O’Reilly Auto Parts store along Hamilton Mill Road in Buford.
Cosme was a former Gwinnett County Sheriff deputy who worked part-time at the auto shop and was closing the store when the shooting happened.
“He was truly a people person,” Felix’s sister, Linda Cosme, told WSB Tonight’s Michael Doudna.

Linda Cosme said her brother was more than just blood, but a confidant—someone who was always social and willing to help those in need. The 63-year-old spent more than three decades in law enforcement before his death.
At the time of their arrest, police said that Robertson and Norah were suspects in several robberies of auto stores throughout Georgia. That night, reports are that Robertson shot Cosme eight times before fleeing.
