Saddened but Not Shocked by Jackson County
RECEIVED Mon., Oct. 24, 2005
Dear Editor,
Ricky [Patterson] is my first cousin. I am not shocked by Jackson County [“Crackpot Crackdown,” News, Oct. 21]. My father, Ricky's uncle, left Edna because of the lack of advancement for the black man and the prejudice that exists. I am so sorry that my cousin has fallen victim to a flawed system. I am suprised that [Bobby] Bell can sleep at night.
