This monster confessed when one of the badly injured children pointed him out as the person that shot his daddy and mommy and as the person tgat stabbed him.

[@angelsudduth4951]

@mathearnius yeah you say that!!! But I also heard that child say out of his own mouth, while laying in the hospital bed recovering.That The man he called Uncle juior is who stabbed me and my siblings. And he's also the one that shot my mommy and daddy. Now you can say what you want, but I believe that babyboy. Who was there and was also harmed. You and the monster that you are protecting, should be ashamed of yourselves and need to just stop and let all of these victims rest in peace.

[@mathearnius]

@@angelsudduth4951it was said after 8 hours of coercion. They just showed the blip on First 48 in which the child finally said what the police wanted him to. You have no idea how intertwined these gangs and the police are in Memphis. Add TV to it, and you can convince the public of anything.
