Reverend AL turns people off regardless of the circumstances - they know his history with the Brawley case and tune it out. A mistake to have him show up - think most people would keep an open mind but that dude shows up & the battle lines are drawn.

This certainly is a tragic tale.
However, I don;t know why they threw Sharpton into the mix, that old man is a racist and really doesn't help matters.
Although there was a lack of due process, No heads are going to roll and there will be no accountability. They will do like they always do and "Try to do better next time".
If the death was considered accidental then they have completely destroyed the chance of getting ANY uncontaminated evidence.
One thing I would questions is the Negligence of the examiner who performed the original autopsy. Blunt Force trauma could have been easily identified.
A note on the "Westside" sign.
That actually has nothing to do with a school.
It has everything to do with what side of the city you come from. Sometimes the bad side of the city is on the east side, sometimes it is on the west side.

When punks are making those gang signs, it has nothing to do with a school.
Apparently you don't come from a very large city or you might know that.

The west side is NOT, as incorrectly defined, the west coast. It refers to the westside, duh, of a major city. It is used by street gangs if they originate from the western neighborhoods of a certain area. If you live on the west coast, that does not make you west side. That depends on where in that particular city you reside.
So now, you are trying to tell me that you know that Kendrick Johnson was making this sign because he was in some gang that doesn't exist.

That tells me that you didn't even bother to read either of those links.
Valdosta does in fact have Gangs. Maybe you should research it before you appear to be ignorant of the facts.
Here I will help you.
This is the LINK for the Valdosta Bureau of Investigative Services that has a Special Gangs Unit.
HERE is a link that leads to an article about what they are doing to prevent the Gang Violence there.
You really need to research things allot better before making a case about something you know nothing about.
your comment that he learned from this is an evil insinuation.
