Seperate & Unequal David Goldman coverage versus April griffin coverage (471 hits)
The committee to free April Griffin and save baby Jesse, have being calling the national media asking the common question. where is the equal coverage for American mother April Griffin, and her son Jesse Griffin. April Griffin has been fighting over 2 years for justice for her and her infant Jesse. A judge in Milwaukee Wisconsin, incarcerated April Griffin for refusing to give her address to a Ugandan immigrant who date raped April and abused her, as recent as while she was pregnant. The Ugandan offered the judge $1,000.00 to take the infant to Africa (he wants his mother and WIFE in Africa to raise the infant). Doctors wrote letters, and there is accumulating evidence of abuse. April was NOT ever married to this man. The history of this case is shocking, and on September 26, 2008, Milwaukee police entered April's home, plain clothes without a warrant, and began beating April in the face, and head, pepper spraying her as she held her son, pulling him out of her arms as if he was a rag doll, breaking several of the baby bones, they used a stun gun on April to force her to release the infant, stunning her directly on her spine, she was temporarily paralyzed, as a result. She is now in Milwaukee County Jail facing 12 years for interference with custody and resisting arrest, the baby whereabouts are unknown and he may have been removed out of this country. April has no criminal record and her bail was set at $25,000.cash. This is injustice and a travesty, where is the equal Media coverage. A Hague application has been filed in federal court and justice seems to see very well. When will this story receive its equal coverage. When will the federal government become as active in this travesty as well? Please feel free to contact the committee to Free April Griffin; e-mail freeaprilgriffin@yahoo.com also please see the petition site that is receiving global support for April; http://www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/43...
Also White people make black people look so bad, failure to unite the way they pretend to be united about this boy in Brazil, at times we are such a sorry race.
This is a despicable and horrifying story. I am going to take this to CNN and MSNBC. I am going to see how much noise I can make.
