This reminds me of Raymond Bledsoe,they should have been convicted of outright murder.Raymond Bledsoe had two of his friends to take a deal of probation to testify against him.And he was stlii aquitted by an all white jury,and his friends kept their probation deals.that means everybody went free,Until ALVIN SYKES got mad and did something about it.and the only way Raymond Bledsoe got convicted, was of a civil rights violation not his actual crime of murder.I dont know correct me if i am wrong but is a civil rights violation is a lesser charge than murder?Raymond Bledsoe killed (STEVEN HARVEY)a black man,Eye and his friend killed (McKay) a black man.And neither of them got the death penalty.My guess is that Raymond Bledsoe is out by now and in about fifteen years you might see Eye and his friend.
