re: How will Memphis, TN handle this situation?

It reminds me of a suicide in Mississippi. A black man was found hanging in a tree. His death was ruled a suicide. He had served time for murdering a white elderly woman for $100. This was a few months ago.

To this day, they are marching in protest saying he was murdered by white people and that the investigation wasn't transparent because of racist officials. However, the lead investigator from MBI is black.

My point is people will convince themselves of whatever they need to in order to cope with what they perceive as injustice.
