STORY: Usher Family Friend Under Investigation for Jet Ski Accident That Left His Stepson Brain Dead

Kile had been declared brain dead since the July 8 accident, in which a family friend allegedly hit the boy with a personal watercraft while Kile and a 15-year-old friend floated in an inner tube. Jeffrey Hubbard, 38, was determined by authorities to have been the one to hit the youths on Georgia's Lake Lanier.

"Basically, a pontoon was pulling two juveniles on an inner tube, and the watercraft ran over the top of them," a Georgia official said after the accident.

Kile’s mother, Tameka Foster, was married to Usher 2007-2009, and had two son with him. In the wake of the accident, the singer moved to settle a custody battle with Foster for their sons. Last week, the singer reportedly offered his ex-wife generous terms, in consideration for her suffering over Kile’s tragic accident.
