Trayvon's parents press for probe of Sanford police at town hall

SANFORD — The parents of Trayvon Martin appealed to a crowd of about 100 people at a Sanford church Tuesday night to press for an investigation into the Sanford Police Department and the firing of chief Bill Lee.

"You can't heal with the same people in place," said Tracy Martin, Trayvon's father. "If Chief Bill Lee is hired back, the same things are going to happen."

Trayvon's mother, Sabrina Fulton, urged interim police chief Richard Myers, who was in the audience, to conduct a thorough investigation into the department.

"There are things you can do, there are things you can change," Fulton said.

Martin are pitiful, trying to use their thug son for crazy nonsense.

They should have taught their son not to be a thug

Now they want to fire people and prevent people from protecting themselves from thugs like the martins

Healing begins when Zimmerman free he did nothing wrong!

This who thing is nonsense, a thug attacked and got shoot no big deal!




Typical spelling and grammer errors or just not making any sense what-so-ever!

ever gets fired. They keep their "trusted good buddies" in place regardless.

Where I live, you often find a connection through the Rotary Club. Selfless people they're not, when you get to see how they operate in their own neighborhoods.
