About Me
I just turned 24, the day after my brother's funeral. He was shot and killed by the police in his home on 3/11/2008. Unfortunately, this was a case of mistaken identity and they had the wrong guy (all evidence proves this) but they won't admit it! My father committed suicide in 1991 so now, it is just me and my mother.
