"Now the truth is out, and I want justice."
Well, God bless you, Gina Jones, the mother of brutally slain teen Martin Lee Anderson; you were determined enough to push to get that second autopsy of your poor son, who was kicked and punched by nine guards AFTER he collapsed while exercising on his very first day at that juvenile boot camp. A very handy surveillance video caught the entire act, and the 14-year-old boy died in a hospital sometime the next day. The Bay County (Tampa, Florida) medical examiner had concluded he died from his sickle cell trait, said to be a "usually benign blood disorder". Well, the boy's mother managed to get Hillsborough County Medical Examiner Vernard Adams to do the exam, and Dr. Michael Baden, the same pathologist who reviewed evidence in the murders of Martin Luther King, Jr. and also on a committee for the same about the assassination of President Kennedy, to observe Martin's second autopsy. Baden afterward said it was "clear" that he "did not die from sickle cell trait or from any other NATURAL causes. " " My opinion is that he died because of what you see in the videotape", Baden said." Hallelujah, amen. Of course, channels must be gone through, they must determine the exact cause of death, examine tissue samples, etc. Hillsborough County State Attorney Mark Ober was appointed by Gov. Jeb Bush to investigate the case. Now tell me if that ain't clout? And so we end as we began, with Martin's mother's probably weary statement that she was glad, "Now the truth is out, and I want justice."

Good for her for going after the truth! Thanks for visiting the Gulag! I hope you didn't get too cold or get followed by the KGB for it! :)
