A Case Of Political Corruption In A Small Community

Most officials are good, caring people. They are human and make mistakes. Sometimes though we elect the pure criminal element into our system. It doesn't take a high degree of intelligence to realize that there has to be some very high ranking Officials somewhere to keep the drugs flowing into our country at an all time high. What better place for a criminal mind, than in our judicial system and law enforcement. The Rodney King incident Proves that. That case is only the tip of the ice burg.

The 20/20 TV series years Ago had an expose entitled Dyer county Blues, about the crooked sheriff and other county officials in Dyersburg TN. These officials Were sent to prison. It is our place as citizens to weed out these Criminal officials.

I want to thank the present DA and other Officials in Dyersburg for the concern and advice they gave our family on our rights, Dyersburg's Victim Witness Coordinator is doing a great job in helping victims' of violent crimes Know their rights. We were not treated with the dignity nor compassion any victims deserve in the 21st Judicial district in TN.

It was time to clean up the garbage and throw out the trash. We haven't got it all cleaned up yet but Joe Baugh is out of office. It has been over four years since Christy's death. We have a new District Attorney and hope this case will be looked into and investigated.

Do you know your Rights? Don't wait until you become a victim to find out. Time is precious, you can not assume the system will follow correct procedures. If they do not, vital evidence will be lost. Take time to learn some important facts so you will be prepared if you or a loved one ever become a victim of crime. Ignorance is not bliss.

Another three years has passed, but I am still fighting for my causes. the new
DA has done nothing to reopen Christy's case. Still no investigation has been
done. Daniel Lay is in prison on some other charge. Eric still holds his silence
Daniel off the record blames Eric. If they were innocent why didn't they take
a lie detector test so other leads could be followed? Why did they not help us
learn the truth? Eric if you read this, consider how you and your family would
feel, living all these years with no closure to the death of your child. You've
married during these years and had a child. If I was accused of murder, and
knew I was innocence I would beg to take a lie detector test instead of
refusing one. I promise that when your daughter grows up, she too will
wonder what you had to hide and why you did not help our family by
cooperating with the authorities if you were not guilty. The suffering and
grief I and my family have endured since Feb.4th, 1995 is as fresh today as
it was then. The NOT knowing is something no family can accept. If you are
not guilty, then know that the person responsible is still in our small town.
Will a member of your family be his next victim???
Update.. Sept. 10, 2003
Since Christy's death, Teen homicide has been one of my causes..
Click on the link below for another teen homicide in the same rural
county and small town in Tennessee. Another 18 year old youth that came
to my attention while fighting the system for justice. This case happened
before Christy's death and was also a cover up. Is there a connection here.
