Every day and night a family or mother wonders if her child will come back through the door which they exited. The uncertainty is frightening while fear of the unknown cause's anxiety. Young Black males 16-25 have reached that role of being grown, some having raised themselves or a lack of parental guidance. Many are high school dropouts and have very limited alternatives. Since 2008 and before, they are seen not going to a job, while idle in droves either congregating early seemingly trying to figure where they fit in this world. Many are begging for help yet don't know how? Nobody seems to have a plan to help this dilemma until it reaches others doorstep. It's only a matter of time. Its not a Black problem, it's a society problem which all of us have failed to see and act until it comes to our house. The times which we live are like a bucket with a hole, which we hope we can still make it home with water in our bucket. According to police, two suspects and four juvenile suspects have been accused of carjacking. Police were summoned to a shooting on Thomas Ave. in the 800 block. Suspects Anthony L Fletcher 19 and Demetrick V. Jones were apprehended Thursday October 22 on charges of first-degree murder, attempted murder, two counts of second-degree kidnapping and two counts of carjacking. Juvenile Suspects were charged with first degree murder, attempted first degree murder, two counts of second-degree kidnapping and carjacking. There are three sides to every story. This was one side of this story. The Monroe Dispatch welcomes another or the other side of this story.
