TROY, MISSOURI: A St Louis rapper, who claimed he was a God after he walked into a psychiatric ward covered in blood, has been arrested after his grandparents were found murdered in their home. Davionne McRoberts, 25, who is professionally known as Woozy the Goat, is being held in a psychiatric ward after he turned himself in on Wednesday, March 22, 2023.

Who were Woozy the Goat's grandparents?
Troy police were searching for McRoberts after his grandparents Donald McRoberts, 71, and Kathy Chatman McRoberts, 58, were found dead in their Eames Street home on Tuesday evening, March 21. Their cause of death is still not known.
"He knocked at my door and said, 'It's God,"' Pamela McRoberts, Donald's sister, told the St Louis Post-Dispatch. "He was talking about how he was God and we were all going to die. He said, 'I'm going to rewrite the Bible,' and that it would all be revealed at the next family reunion. Once he got done pacing and crying and jumping up and down, he left. When he left my home, I called my brother. I said, 'He's not talking right.'"
Pamela said her brother, who was an Army veteran, ignored McRoberts' behavior and said he was "going to die before I do" and that he "wasn't worried at all." She added that she remembered meeting Kathy while working as maids in a hotel 20 years ago at a hotel in St Charles. Donald would ask for Kathy's phone number years later and they would begin dating and later married in 2017. Donald, who was popularly known as "Mack", was a former military police officer, of which Pamela said he was "very proud".
McRoberts and his demented Facebook posts
Just the days before allegedly claiming the lives of his grandparents, McRoberts posted several unhinged posts on his profile. In a post on Saturday, March 18, he wrote, "WHO WANNA DIE TODAY? Y'all don't believe? Come show me, I'm not God." In another post that day, he wrote, "I KNOW I KNOW, MY EARS ARE RINGING, IT'S ALMOST TIME, BUT NOT YET."
On Sunday, just a couple of days before the killings, he posted, "Hey, I really am God truly, everyone I'm trying to help you all, but I came to terms, y'all got too [sic] comfy in hell...If GOD WAS CALLING YOU WOULD YOU PICK UP? FUCK NO YOU ALL IGNORE ME AND IM TRYING MY HARDEST TO SHOW YOU ALL PLEASE HELP ME SHOW YOU ALL."
In other posts, the rapper claimed the "government has lied to you," and "there are no accidents," and before claiming that he was abused by a family member as a child.
McRoberts turned himself in
A granddaughter, who was unable to reach her grandparents, called for a "welfare check" and police made the tragic discovery inside their home. Police deployed drones to search the area after a manhunt for McRoberts was ensured shortly. The authorities released his photo to have the public help find him. A psychiatric ward contacted the police to say he had checked himself in on Wednesday, said Lincoln County Prosecuting Attorney Michael Wood. Authorities believe McRoberts had a mental breakdown.
