Ten months ago I watched my little brother graduate as a Surgical Technologist. Two days later I watched as he laid dead in the emergency room. Tomorrow is finally the court date for two of the parties involved.
It’s almost been a year, the trial has been pushed back several times but tomorrow is the day. The details surrounding his death aren’t really necessary; he was a good kid but in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people. Sitting in the courtroom across from the people involved and knowing that if they would have made the slightest of different decisions he would still be here today - is going to be the most difficult part of it all.
I don’t want to give the wrong impression, they’re not up on capitol murder charges, but they are still serious offenses that resulted in his death. There’s not a thing in the world that can bring him back, but I hope that Justice is served tomorrow.
I feel selfish asking for thoughts or a prayer after life has taken me away from the Jungle for a bit; but if you burn one down tomorrow, do it for my little brother or for Justice.
The more than ironic kind of bittersweet moment in all of this is that his death resulted in me taking a wrong turn in Dallas which led me to a B&M after an 8 year hiatus from The Leaf. That all lead me to CS and everyone that I’ve met on here – there’s not really a Hallmark card for that occasion, but I want you all to know that I’m very thankful that I’m part of this great community.
Thanks again for your support.
