I want justice
Placeholder Image

 I have lived in DeKalb County since 1965 and know a lot of people in this town.
I am really upset about an incident that happened in DeKalb County on May 1, 2016. Nothing was ever said about my grandson’s death that took place in DeKalb County and Warren County. Each police department blames it on each other because the incident happened in both counties.
Just look over the truth. I talked to people who were there when it happened and they all lied. Because there is still talk in DeKalb County about what happened to him.
Eighteen people were around at the time this happened and they all lied and all this was forgotten when his death was closed by investigators. Now, some of these people are talking about his death and bragging about getting away with my grandson’s death. They are walking the streets bragging about what they know and why and how this happened.
I just want to have justice for my grandson.
