both families lose in this battle! The Haddock family lost Emily. His family lost him! It's not about race! My nephew was killed in '87 by a white man and I'm black and he struck a deal and received a 4 year sentence for manslaughter. What was that saying to our family about the judicial system! He was 9 years old and we still wish for him 23 years later! His killer is out and living! there was no apology to us for what he'd done, no regrets, no remorse! at least he apologized for his actions. we didn't get that! he has to live with that the rest of his life! yes he has those accomodations that we're paying for and that gets me a little heated when that money could be going for something else. to both families I apologize for what has happened and may the God of peace and grace be with us all!
