According to family members, Faulkner was being treated at Daymark Recovery Services. It is unspecified what services were received and whether they were mental health related or substance abuse related.
When Robert Faulkner’s family drew names in Charlotte on Saturday for their annual “Secret Santa” gift game, they didn’t know he had been killed the night before.
Shamekia Houston, Faulkner’s niece, said Faulkner was supposed to come home Friday night to stay with the family for the holidays, and they were waiting on a call from him Friday to hear when his bus would be arriving.
