TruthHurts 9 years, 8 months ago on Despair at death of family

"On Friday, Ms Davis, 46, said she came to the “end of the rope” with Shemicka and threw her out, after Shemicka disrespected her.

“She had an attitude problem and would never take responsibility for her actions. She blamed everyone but herself, that is why she came to stay with me, no one else in the family would take her in because of her attitude. She would be happy one minute, then angry the next,” Ms Davis said."

It's sad that the deceased relative feels it necessary to casually make such a statement on 'disrespect' when there are 3 lives lost! It's more than clear the young lady had issues and needed her family who would have seen her circumstances more clearly than she was seeing them; and with a bit of understanding and compassion. This is what depression and other psychological issues does.. it clouds the mind. I feel terrible for Shemicka and her family; but defaming her at this time now that she's gone, is not the right thing to do because the mother cannot defend herself. This to me does not show good character on the cousin's part. No one should be disrespected in their own home, but as one mother to another.. The mother may have been a problem, but what about the innocent babies in all of this?

Forgive me, just venting because this story hits so close to home!

Lets hear some different news than the weight we are consumed with each day. Like your spirit and sense of adventure Mr. Roberts and Mr. Adderley. Enjoy the Pole and safe passage home.

krosports 9 years, 6 months ago on IAAF WORLD RELAYS: Day one round-up

MorningI thought it was in Poor Taste that the Tribune in Very Poor Taste Chose as the Photo of our Very Own Brianna Bethel, with her Hands over her eyes as if She had something to be ashamed about. As a Photographer myself I am sure there were tons of other photos in your file that could be used, sorry about that the Photographer don't get to choose what Pictures are used thats the Job of someone who for the most part may never have Competed at any Level so they could not possibly understand the pressure of being a Junior Athlete competing on the World Stage "FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME" if that was not enough pressure "IN FRONT OF THE HOME CROWD' where every thing has to be Perfect.

I AM SO VERY PROUD OF YOU BRIANNA BETHEL, Thats the First of Many Races in your Future.......
