Will We Ever Know What Happened To Mitrice Richardson? (3679 hits)
Before Black Lives Matter became a movement, before there was daily scrutiny of the police on the evening news and before videos showcasing police brutality on African-Americans came a dime a dozen – her life mattered.
It’s hard to believe that it’s been six years since the disappearance of Mitrice Richardson and five years since her decomposing naked corpse was found in a Malibu ravine.
24-year-old Mitrice Richardson found herself at the swanky Geoffrey’s restaurant in wealthy Malibu, California where they claim she was acting bizarre and unable to pay her $89.51 bill. Mitrice was allowed to phone her great-grandmother (using Geoffrey’s phone), who was willing to pay the bill over the phone, but Geoffrey’s manager declined the payment. The sheriff’s department was called and a citizen’s arrest was performed.
