All day I waited for a call, I finally got one, my mom had called to tell me that one guy was found guilty of possession of a fire arm even though his finger prints were not on the gun, only the prints from the cop that arrested him. I was trying to calm her down ( I could tell she was very upset just sitting there hearing all of this), she said she would call me as soon as she could, so once again I waited and waited and waited, the King came home and still no word. So I called my sister and asked her if she knew what was going on, she puts my mom on the phone who couldn’t talk at all, I knew then that the news wasn’t good.   With her voice cracking I heard her say that my brother got 8 years! The judge wanted this case over with and did not want to hear any testamony on my brothers behalf from anyone. I thank GOD I was not there, (I remember all to well how I reacted when we went to bail him out two years ago and when the judge said his bail was $350,000.00 I screamed and cried and I refused to leave without my brother, it took my dad and a guard to walk me out of the building). A part of me died when I heard my mother say that he is to report back to court on April 16th alone, he will then be taken into custody. And we have no idea where they are taking him. GOD HOW COULD THIS BE HAPPENING!!! Our prayers went unanswered for two years, and people that do not even know my brother prayed for him, people that work with my mom, people from her church, the Kings side of the family and the people at DCFS and all of the counselors he had to go and see had written letters to the court telling the court that they had evaluated him time and time again over the course of two years and they find that he is not capable of doing such harm to a person let alone a baby. The judge didn’t even want to read them. What a pompous ass! I know that GOD has a reason as to why this happened, but to me no matter what his reason is I will never understand it.

As I write this page I sit here numb with tears in my eyes knowing that for at least 6 1/2 years my life will not be the same, not until my brother is in my arms again. All I can do, all any of us can do is pray and pray hard that GOD will be by his side never leaving his side and protecting him from harm.  I thought my brother wouldn’t make it out alive when he was in there for the month and a half waiting for us to bail him out he called us everyday telling us how he feared for his life, and now I pray that I am once again wrong, that he will return home to us unharmed.

K and lil’  M please please please do not say anything to the family just yet, I know my mom will be upset if I told the family, She will make phone calls but it’s going to take some time for her to come around to doing that. I am so worried about her right now, not to mention my dad.

Again thank you to all who said prayers for my brother and family we really appreciate it.
