Police say he worked with four other teen suspects, but Broughton is the only one not in custody.
“It upsets me,” said the victim’s mother, who asked not to be identified. “Where are his parents? He’s only 17.”
The victim’s mother says her son was 15 at the time of the robbery in May when he was visiting a friend at a community pool house near Buford.
It was on Apple Grove Road where police say Broughton held her son at gunpoint to rob him for whatever he had on him.
“My biggest wish is they had some kind of remorse,” she said. “My son says I’ll give you the chain and they start laughing and say empty your pockets.”
Broughton and 17-year-old Edmund Buggs are charged with armed robberies and an armed robbery in Lawrenceville that Lawrenceville Police say happened next day.
