is when he entered the jail to be held on aggr asslt charges?

Why in the hell was a 16 yr old in an adult jail for 4 months before he is even up for charges?????

If I were this young mans parents I'd sue the pants off Okeechobee!!!!

Matter of fact I think I'll make several phone calls today about this matter that could have been taken care a long time a go!

You would think in this day and age they would be able to make sheets and blankets for jails that would not support the weight of an inmate to prevent this type of thing.

"Parents". Are you kidding?

That's the reason the teen was there to begin with. 90% of inmates rarely had parenting done to them. Duh!

You must be Catholic as you're praying to the blessed mother who was a human being and not God.

The Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mother of God. How and whom I pray to or with is my personal business... Please don't make this about religion. A child has just lost his life. Only God knows what this child was carrying in his heart.

"Through the sake of his sorrowful passion...have mercy on us and on the whole world".

" That is rediculous" you didnt even know him. Yea, he had made mistakes & had a criminal record, but you didnt KNOW him. I hate how you people can just act like its no damn big deal! No matter wat his records says, he would have given you the shirt off his back if it was the last thing he had! "JUSTICE NOT SERVED" it will never be served till the officers that were on duty are held accountable. They should have been there! This should have never happened AT ALL!

To Justice, thats what you call youreself. I hope to god that you NEVER loose someone close to you like he was to me & many, by taking their own life. you need help. that is NOT a way to serve justice by taking a criminal off the streets, thats wat jail is for. I cant help the thought in my head that YOU NEED HELP! Unless you knew the REAL tony, & not just a damn record that tells you all the WRONG things he had done while he was here, you dont need to state your opinion anymore about my "Big bro"!

MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. I CAN'T IMAGINE YOUR PAIN. I DIDN'T KNOW YOUR BROTHER AT ALL AND AM VERY SADDENED BY THE COMMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN POSTED. I HAVE PRAYED FOR YOUR BROTHER'S SOUL...GOD LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT.
PEOPLE WHO MAKE THESE TYPES OF COMMENTS ARE THE ONES WE NEED TO PRAY FOR...THEY ARE LOST.
GOD BLESS YOU.

May God have mercy on his soul. And may God have mercy on those of you who are so cold hearted. You should be ashamed. Everyone makes mistakes in life, but he was still a person who was loved by his family. If it was your brother or son who you be so mean?

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Sagittarius

Mercury turning retrograde in your house of finances carries a rather unseasonal message, because it's telling you to pay attention to your finances over the next few weeks. If you already know that you've overspent this month, you won't need to be told that a few economies are just around the corner. Get the facts straight and pay attention to the small print. You may also have to make some adjustments to an intimate relationship so it can move into another phase.
