According to Marshall’s family she was in a serious car accident on April, where her car rolled over multiple times.

However, she wasn’t taken to the hospital. Instead the police took her to the Walker County Jail in Huntsville, Texas.

Symone’s sister, Honey, said:

“When I talked to her from jail, she complained that her head was hurting and she kept blacking out. I called the jail several times and requested for them to take her to a real hospital and they wouldn’t do so. If they would have this, her death could have been prevented and my sister would still be here. My heart hurts so bad. She was my best friend. I am so angry that they did this to her. She moved to Texas for a fresh start in life a few months ago. She was doing good down there, had a job and was about to buy a house. She’s a beautiful person, never been in trouble before and didn’t deserve this.”

Marshall’s family hasn’t been able to get details from officials either.

Markel Is A 4 Year Old Child Suffering From A Rare Form Of Cancer Causing Him To Go Blind And He Is Losing

Markel is a 4 year old child suffering from a rare form of cancer causing him to go blind and he is losing his sense of smell. This past Wednesday, his saint of a mother, Rosie, was told he only has about 2 months left to live. He is the STRONGEST little boy I have ever met. He is nothing but positive 100% of the time. He is constantly uplifting his mom telling her everything is going to be okay. He told her before they found out about the estimated 2 months left of life, that he was going to go to heaven soon, and that he was going to meet God. He said he is going to become one of his angels soon, but that it’s okay. Now personally, I don’t affiliate myself with any religion, but I don’t deny any of them, and that just makes my heart want to burst. He’s only 4, and he has accepted death and he has prepared himself for the afterlife. He deserves the world, and he can’t even have his life. Please share. Please make this known. He deserves it.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been on tumblr, but I have a situation that I want to share for the sake of spreading the word about what happened in my hometown almost 2 months ago. This site is very good about spreading information, so I hope this works in favor of him, his family, and friends.

On February 11th (a Thursday I believe), a 12 year old boy and his friend (middle-schoolers) were involved in a hit-and-run accident (texting and driving). They were walking to school and Devon, who left early that morning to take a pair of shoes to a kid who was being bullied at school, took the most of the hit and died early the next weak due to severe head trauma (no other injuries, just his head). His friend was only bruised, but witnessed the entire thing and also able to identify the driver, who is a student that I attend high school with.

While he was dying in a hospital bed, she was at a basketball game snapchatting with her friends. She told everyone with certainty that she’s not going jail. She told one of Devon’s classmates that she had a staring problem (I’m guessing she was staring because she was trying to figure out why she’s not in jail??). She has stated that she has refused to put her life on hold because of what happened.

Let’s not forget that while Devon was bleeding out on the ground after she hit him, she went to McDonald’s and bought breakfast for her and her boyfriend and came to school.

Like. Nothing. Happened.

Now, take a deep breath.

It is March 25th and there have been no charges. Her license has either not been revoked or she is still driving illegally (I saw her driving this week). She was not arrested immediately but told by our chief police to “get out of town”, so her and her mother left for the weekend. Chief police helped have her car repaired. Her and her father have been sending out threats because they can’t take the heat that they have been receiving and also some other shitty statements have been made by her (I was one of the ones threatened and I also have other screenshots of posts that she has made on social media).

This description is very vague and not very well put together, but I WILL post links to his Facebook page “Justice4Devon” (search it if you’d like) so you guys can get more information and also ways that you guys can help and support. We’ve harassed our local news channels and were able to get his story on the news, but we still need more. Our protest has already reached all the way to Indiana, Florida, and all over Alabama (where the accident happened).

Please reblog this post and help us get the word out about this. My friend did not leave this world so people like her could continue to walk alongside the rest of us.

#ThePulseOfAfrica : Was G.O.T inspired by the West in Africa | World News

The CIA has reportedly carried out multiple assassinations in Africa, and this reality has left many African nations baffled. Historically, Africa has served as a battleground for Western powers, particularly during the colonial era, and the continent is now a key location of geopolitical conflict between major world powers. The report reveals that the CIA, along with other western intelligence agencies, has assassinated six African leaders, including Patrice Lumumba of Congo, between 1961 and 1973. The other assassinated leaders include Ruben Um Nyobe, Mehdi Ben Barka, Pierre Mulele, and Eduardo Mondlane. Muammar Gaddafi, the former leader of Libya, was also assassinated in 2011.
