I don't want my son to die in vain. You see, all young black men are not involved in drugs, gangs and violence. I don't want my son's case to end up like his father's.

My son was a good boy. I'm not saying this because he is my son. I'm saying this because he went to work every day. After his father was murdered, he promised to take care of his mommy and his sisters and that is what he did.
