The Star Spangled Truths: Remembering The Lost Children Of Liberty

The night skies will be filled with star bombs bursting in mid air as, food, fun, good times, and I am sure much laughter with great cheer will set the tone for the Spirit of the People, while America celebrates another 4th of July Holiday in commemoration of this young Nation’s  freedom from British Rule. The voice of the people has been heard for over 200 years here in the land now known as the Home of Liberty. While the American Citizens enjoy this season with much Pomp and Circumstance, a more telling tale is depicted within the plight of some of our most beleaguered Countryman.

The U.S. shores swelter with vast resources, some of our Native Son’s personal wealth exceed that of some Sovereign Nations, and many who possess the financial ability to resolve the Economic woes of the masses, yield not to the cry for emphatic human compassion. We see their struggle night and day on the platforms of the New York Subway,  the Village of the Homeless in Heartland America, on the steam vents of Hollywood’s walk of Fame, the Bayous of the South, and even on the door steps of Landmarks in our Nation’s Capitol.  From every mountain side of America the bells of “True Liberty” have yet to be heard. The Song of Liberty falls upon death ears while the simple request for spare change is deemed annoying, all along while many of America’s desolate who beg for Liberty have served her well in Foreign Wars. Lets not forget America’s poor children whose lives entail the sounds of gunshots, crime scene tape, death all around them, those who endure drug addicted parenting, and all of which has become common place even though they bare the highly coveted title of American Citizen. The sight of them pilferaging through trash for food is met with discuss, their mere rags for attire illuminates with an aroma of the darkest depths of America, and their cargo in tow tells a story of a long forgotten and seemingly invisible class of U.S. Citizens. This is their story, their struggle, and we must be reminded constantly that  they too are our Brothers and Sisters. The intelligent mind must assume that a mere rough patch in life could instantly become their reality.

 

To many here in the U.S. the Independence Day Celebration is a Patriotic and necessary endeavor, but the lives of so many will be spent grappling for basic physiological necessities. When the skyline is filled with the celebratory glare of Freedom and Liberty, we must pause to hear their cries for vindication, relief from deplore, their restoration of Human Dignity, and their longing for escape from despair. We can not celebrate with good conscience knowing that American People living on these shores remain in bondage, a captive to poverty, and seated on a lonely island starving for redemption from their fallen place. Oh American of thee I sing. Land where my father’s died, and land where the Pilgrims still Cry! God Bless America, and God Bless the Homeless today. For they too are American and long for Liberty!

Morning Passion, Blood Stained Sheets, And Crime Scene Drama: The Day I Lost My Best Friends

Her hair was a natural Honey Blonde. The golden locks ran the length of her back and her appearance commanded the attention of every male who’s eyes ever rested upon her. The small petite frame of Lydia Franklin was a sight to behold, many would say. To me PL (Pretty Lydia) was family. I met her during my teen years when I worked  with her Dad at Tony Linhart’s (Baltimore Colts Great) Direct Marketing Association. Summer BBQ invites to the Franklin Home in Sandtown resulted in PL and I bonding, hanging out, and becoming inseparable it seems. Lydia would use me to get out of the house. Her Dad only trusted me taking his Daughter out because he saw me as a good Kid. That would have ended had he known we would separate as soon as we were out of his eye sight! We had to be careful though, sometimes when I came over Mr. franklin would quiz me about what Lydia and I had been up too. Teddy Franklin was a Tall lumberjack looking dude with Native American and Trinidadian Heritage. Needless to say, Ted Franklin walked with a big stick. One summer as Lydia and I walked along the Harbor in Fells Point, we bumped into a childhood friend of mine name Steve Lancaster. I began to introduce PL and Stevie but realize that there was no need too. Their eyes were affixed upon each other as if and act of God was happening right before my eyes. I have heard the old cliche “Love at first sight” before, but if I have ever experienced it in this life, it was the day that Ted’s little girl met this poor kid from East Baltimore. I spent the next few weeks fielding calls from PL and Stevie, each asking had I seen the other, and begging me to play match maker. I told Stevie and Lydia the exact same thing you guys have already met what do you guys need me for. I hatched a plan to arrange another meeting with them which resulted in the exchange of their phone numbers and the rest was history. I had a hard time selling Steve Lancaster to Big Ted Franklin though. I remember as it were only a few hours ago, the day I brought Stevie to a BBQ in Sandtown. Big Ted kept asking me who is this guy Lydia been with all day? I eventually had a sidebar with him about Stevie, and I got the shock of my life. The entire time I was briefing him about PL’s New Boyfriend, Mr. Franklin had a look of complete disdain. I actually wondered if I would leave the Franklin Home alive, because I knew that Lydia was his entire World. After I was done Ted was silent for a while, leaned forward in his seat as I quivered in mine, and he began to speak in a soft tone. “Well, that’s a surprise. I thought for sure you were going to marry my Daughter”. I was like, huh? I had to explain to Big Ted that I had never so much as kiss his Daughter. He leaned back in his chair, looking down, and appeared disappointed. We set there silent for a while both looking extremely puzzled. Had he known I did bed a lot of her Friends after Lydia had played match maker, he probably would have thrown me out of his Home. So, he began to quiz me about Stevie asking where I knew him from, was he a good kid, and whether he was using a condom with his Daughter. I quickly responded, “Whoa, whoa Mr. T”. Your asking about stuff I can’t answer for you. He went on to say to me that I should know how he is and that he wasn’t ready to be a Grand Father. I set him at ease and explained that I had groomed his Daughter well, and that wasn’t an issue. Ted Franklin asked me, “So, you approve of this”? I couldn’t believe that he was asking for my word on this. I recall us talking a little longer and ending the conversation with Ted telling me to bring Stevie by the house a few more times. He wanted to get to know him more before he understandably, felt comfortable with letting this kid date his Daughter.

Things went very well for PL and Stevie. They were never seen apart as far back as I can remember. Then in the Summer of 1991 Steve Lancaster, with a fresh Bachelors Degree in his hand from Bucknell University, married Lydia Arnell Franklin, who was a recent Florida State Graduate herself. It seemed as the love they shared wasn’t marred by distance as they attended College miles apart from each other. In the first few years life went extremely well for PL and Stevie as it seemed they were a match made in heaven. They were both hard working educated people with a new Home in the Baltimore Suburb, Randallstown, MD. I lost contact with the Lancasters for a while as life became busy for us all during our earlier responsible adult years. We would eventually reunite and the Summer BBQs were on and Poppin at Ted Franklins house. We always had a good time when with plenty of food and drinks. In fact I slept a many of nights on the Franklin sofa after a little over indulgence and Big Ted refusing to allow me to venture on home under the influence. One summer I began to observe my Friend Steve displaying signs of distance and removed from those infamous Franklin BBQs. I also noticed he had a a disturbing glare at Lydia when ever she was engaged in conversation with other men. I never knew Stevie to be a jealous type and there didn’t appear to be a reason for him to be either. So, I approached him about it as a concerned friend. Stevie explained to me that he had a suspicion that Lydia was having an Affair. I rebuffed him and told him, Bruh your talking nonsense. Lydia loves you, and always has since the first time she ever laid her eyes on you. It was at that moment that Stevie Lancaster gave me a look I will never forget. The kind of look that was unreadable, dark, empty, and filled with malicious intent. I became concerned, looked over at Lydia, and gazed back at Stevie. His eyes had never been taking off me. Scary and frightening to say the least. I knew then that everything wasn’t as peachy crunch in the Lancaster Home as everyone had thought. I asked Stevie what gives? Where is this coming from? Stevie began to tell me about the strange male garments he had found stuffed in laundry bins in the basement, the scent of cologne around the house that he doesn’t own, and the cigarette buts in ash trays in the den. I told Stevie be reasonable about this. The Cologne could be from anyone stopping by the house, like a Salesman, neighbor or anybody. The strange men clothing could have been left behind by family guest, and you know that Lydia’s best friend Shaliece smokes. Stevie says to me, “There not her brand”. “The cigarettes”. “Shaliece doesn’t smoke those”. Nothing I said seemed to cheer him up nor convince Stevie that Lydia had been faithful to him. I just let it go. It was nearly a year before I saw Lydia and Stevie Lancaster again. I bumped into Stevie at Mondawmin Mall one fall, asked how he was doing, and more importantly if he still felt his wife was having an affair. Stevie became agitated by my inquiry into his marriage. I understood that because although we were childhood friends, we were grown now and some things friends just need to mind their business about. We made plans to hang out and do the BBQ thing at his In-Laws and said goodbye. That was the last time that I would ever see Stevie again. I remember watching the local news one evening and saw a news clip about a double Homicide in Randallstown. The neighborhood appeared to be very close to where Stevie and Lydia lived. My subconscious thought did Stevie do something? I quickly dismissed that idea as i knew that level of violence wasn’t in his nature. Sadly though, I watched the news and the Home draped in yellow Crime Scene tape appeared to be the Lancaster’s House. I watched more intently and saw Lydia’s Gold Land Cruiser in the driveway. I immediately picked up the phone and called their home. I became numb when the call was answered by Police whom were still there working the Crime Scene. I learned later that Stevie’s suspicion had gotten the best of him and one day after leaving the house for work, Stevie waited a couple of hours, doubled back to the house, and quietly entered their home. Apparently, the music playing on the stereo was so loud that they never heard Stevie enter the house. The Lancaster house had that thick plush carpet that made it difficult to hear approaching sounds. Stevie went up to his bedroom, heard obvious sounds of sexual passion, opened the door slightly, and discovered what he had suspected all along. Lydia lay completely nude across the bed as a man atop of her joined Stevie’s Wife in loud sexual intercourse. My friend must have snapped. Stevie went to an adjoining room retrieved his pistol and unloaded the weapon on Lydia and the other man killing them both. They tell me that Stevie called the Police and confessed to the shooting, and was found there sitting on the steps inside the home when they arrived. I never did understand my friend Lydia’s actions. Nor did I completely understand her brazing disrespect for their home, and for the life of me how she became so comfortable that she never even heard Stevie come back to the house. I won’t get into details about Stevie Lancaster’s Criminal Case disposition to further protect their identity, but it was this case that made me realize and understand that Love is for the faint at heart, the brave soul with gallantry who dare embark upon her, that love in it’s purest form isn’t without consequences for those who adore her, and in the end love sometimes hurts so very deadly. I know a man name Ted Franklin who probably hurt the most. I never did see Big Teddy again, as I was too ashamed to stop by and simply say hello. I blamed myself for the entire ordeal because I had given Big Teddy my word and stamp of approval on Stevie dating and ultimately marrying his daughter. I did run into a relative of the Franklin family years later. It was at that time I was told that Ted Franklin had died just a few years after he lost Lydia. Probably from a broken heart. The relative also told me that ted understood why I stopped coming around and said if anyone ever saw me again, to tell me he don’t blame me for what happen. i wish i could have had the chance to say goodbye to Big Ted. I drove to the Maryland House of corrections in Jessup, MD to visit my friend Stevie Lancaster, but I could never muster the courage to go in and see him. I will never forget the day Stevie met PL and the way they looked the moment they set eyes upon each other. Perhaps that just may have been the worst day of our lives.

End Of The World Prediction: Another Black Eye For The Christian World Community?

His Family Radio draws listeners from around the Globe, they pour Millions of Dollars faithfully into his Broadcast Evangelism, and he is highly touted as a Biblical Scholar. The only problem is that he can’t seem to pinpoint the exact date of Armageddon. As May 21, 2011 came and went the Native Oakland, CA Preacher ‘s prediction of doomsday vanished as quickly as the finances paid to his Radio Ministry. The Elderly Harold Camping had been teaching Listeners that the Rapture as depicted in the Bible would occur, Millions would be killed, and those left upon the Earth would endure turmoil for 5 months until October 21. 2011. Camping claim to have discovered a secret mathematical encryption with in the Bible that reveals the exact day that the World would come to an end. The prediction gained momentum when Time Magazine did a Story, NPR News ran a Clip, and over 2,000 Billboard Ads proclaiming Campings prediction popped up around the Nation. Camping is not new to the Doomsday Stage as he also had a failed prediction in 1994. It’s interesting that Major News outlets would even entertain yet another prediction of the World Ending by Camping, and that he continues to cling to Biblical Elite Status. Many site the Bibles Teachings that no Man would know the Hour of Christ’ Resurrection, not even Christ himself. Yet Camping has been heralded as an Authority on Scripture, boldly predicting Events that the Bible Teaches will occur, and in direct contradiction to what the Word of God has otherwise stated. It seems alarming that Millions of so called God Fearing Christians follow this Man. Campings Radio Family Network is valued at over an estimated $100 Million Dollars and seems to depict very clearly the direction of his Spiritual guidance. Why are the masses listening to what Camping has to say? Why are they willing to shell out Millions to support his Teachings? Why does he seem so eager to prepare the World for final destruction? We can ask similar questions regarding the Followers of Jim Jone, David Koresh, Billy Graham, Eddie Long, John Africa, and the list runs on of Religous Bible Toters whom are willing to support Preachers even unto the death. Christians in particular have been long criticized for their seemingly Zombie like allegiance to Churches with sweltering financial resources, their know it all persona or pathetic addiction to the King James Version of the Bible, and their animated display of joy during Church Services that many say mimics feel good side show antics. However, my depiction of some  Christians should not be generalized as an overall perspective of genuine God Fearing People, but Preachers the likes of Camping and his followers certainly adds credence to some areas that distractors have been most critical of the Faith. We must agree that one’s Religion and their monetary contribution to support a Theological Belief is between an individual and their professed Creator. Those of us who Fear God and Believe and Trust in his Word are resolved to dismiss Preacher Camping, it’s just that his predicting a return of Christ on a whim, diminishes the World’s outlook on Christians who say that they truly believe, and cast doubt on the credibility of Preachers who work diligently to honestly Teach the Bible. Whether the Believers who follow Camping condoned his foolishness or not, they are associated with Christian Ideals and they must all share the embarrassment and wear the same Black eye!

The Move Massacre 26 Years Later: Philly City Officials Killed Innocent Babies And Got Away With It

The History

 

Former Philadelphia Police Chief and Mayor Frank Rizzo ordered City Police to storm the Move Compound in 1978, and Police stomped and kicked  Pregnant Female Move Members, causing them to lose their Babies.

To obtain a complete and thorough understanding of the May 13, 1985 Move Bombing in West Philadelphia, we must take a look at the History that the John Africa Idealist Group known as M.O.V.E has had with Philadelphia City Officials dating back to 1978. Move has been well known for it’s Revolutionary Extremism, calling for a society without Government or Police. The Group adopted a Back to Nature lifestyle which mirrors Rahstafarianism, with their signature dreadlocks and wayward physical attire. Citizens living in the Palerton Village section of the City saw Move Members as odd or eccentric, but barring their unorthodox culture, many say that Move posed no significant threat to the Community. Perhaps the Anti-Government  and disdain for City Officials that Move overtly projected through their literature was the foundation that sparked a long standing conflict with the City of Philadelphia during the Post Civil rights Era.  The Palerton Community was no stranger to Police Brutality under a Mobbed Up Frank Rizzo Police Department. History reveals a well known fact that Italian and African American Communities have never been exactly cordial in Philly for decades. Rizzo likened  Move to Radical 60’s Groups like the Black Panthers and the Nation of Islam. Under Rizzo, the Police standard operation procedure can only be depicted by an infamous Rizzo quote, “Get there Black asses”.  The African American Community in Philly became increasingly weary of unprovoked acts of excessive force in Rizzotown. The culminating incident occurred when a Move Member was beaten nearly lifeless by City Police. The Police sought to eradicate the Move Headquarters and used City Health Inspectors to obtain a Court Order condemning the Move Building and calling it inhabitable. Move fought back by refusing to grant further inspections of the dwelling by City Health Officials igniting a 15 month standoff with now former Police Chief, and newly elected Mayor at the time, Frank Rizzo. During the standoff which sparked mass local Media attention, it should be pointed out that local Journalist were granted access to the Move Compound. Those who conducted Interviews inside reported observing a well kept interior of the Building, described Move Members as fitness fanatics, witness female members training via boxing, and said their diet was of a Vegan nature. None of this would stop Move’s greatest adversary (Rizzo) though. The Mayor went on an all out Public Assault on Move, holding Press Conferences vowing to raid the Move Compound and enforce  the Court Order. Mean while City Police issued Arrest Warrants for the 20 adult Move Members living in the house, citing their failure to comply with Health Codes, and a Court Order. Move cited the numerous well documented cases of Police Brutality that Move Members as well as other Citizens in the Palerton Community had endured over the years, and took up arms, vowing to fight any attempt to siege the Building until the death. Rizzo made it clear that Police would not relent and said, “We’re going to crack their Black necks”. Rizzo’s patience wore thin on the posturing by both sides, and gave the police Chief the Order to remove the Move Members from the Building. At 3:00 a.m. Police moved in barricading streets for several Blocks. At Sunrise, City police gave their last command ordering the Move Members out of the House, and when Move refused, a Bull Dozer began to tear down the fence that fortified the Building’s Grounds. A shot suddenly rang out, City Police opened fire on the Move Building. There are conflicting accounts about who allegedly fired the first shot, but most witnesses say the shot came in a direction opposite of the Move Building, and away from Police. Officials never determined where, or who fired a weapon causing Police to retaliate with deadly force. When the dust was all settled, a City Policeman lie dead on the ground, Police entered the Move Compound and dragged the Members out of the house, some completely nude ( an act some say meant to humiliate them), Female Move Members were kicked and stomped causing them to have miscarriages. Perhaps the most chilling and disturbing act by Police was the death of a 15 month old child who was trampled to death when Police began to enter the Building. Also, News Media broadcast Video Footage of three Philly Cops repeatedly beating and stomping a Move Member like a rag doll. The Cops were later identified, brought to trial for  Assault, but the presiding Judge dismissed the Jury in the Case and made his own ruling acquitting them. In contrast, 9 of the Move Members were tried and convicted of 3rd Degree Murder. To add insult to injury, City Police under Direct orders from Mayor Rizzo, arrived with Bulldozers and other Heavy Demolition Equipment, and leveled the Move Compound just a few hours after they had dragged Move out of the Building.  Though countless inquiries by Watchdog Advocacy Groups, Court Appeals, and constant Protest by Move, and Move Supporters kept pressure on Officials requesting that the case be reopened, the Move 9 remain in Prison 31 years later. No Police Officer has ever been tried for the 15 month old baby killed during the assault on the Move Compound, nor for the stillborn fetus killed after Police kicked their pregnant Mothers in the stomach in retaliation for the death of their fellow Police Officer.

The 1985 Conflict

Former Philadelphia Mayor, and first Black Elected to Philly’s top Seat, Dr. Wilson Goode Sr. ordered City Police to drop a Bomb on a Black Neighborhood killing 11 people (including 5 children), and allowed the Fire to burn until it was too late. The Fire destroyed 61 Homes on Osage Avenue in West Philadelphia.

Less than a decade later the bad blood between City Officials and Move, who was only 7 years removed from the Palerton Incident, gained momentum again on the heals of Citizen Complaints, alleging poor sanitation, foul odors coming from Move’s new home on Osage Avenue, and obscene broadcast coming from speakers mounted on the roof top of the Building at all hours of the night. Move had exhausted their campaign to have the Palerton Conflict brought back into Mainstream Media, at a time when no one was listening. Media circuits had gone numb on the story and considered it a close matter. move attempted to usher the Media back into the mix with the loud broadcast, which was almost certain to incite the interest of City Police, who by many assertion, were waiting for another opportunity to avenge the death of  one of their own. Like the 78 Conflict, City Officials cited the Move dwelling for what they called Health Code Violations, attempted to serve arrest warrants for some of the Move  Members, and again Move resisted. this sparked yet another face to face standoff with Move and City Police. As the long standoff ensued, Move Members bunkered down inside the house exchanged gunfire with police outside. At 5:30 that evening, a Philadelphia Police Helicopter dropped a bomb onto the roof of the house in an effort to drive Move members out. Accounts differ on why the fire wasn’t snuffed out, despite the dozen fire trucks surrounding the block. Ramona Africa, the sole surviving adult in the house, says Police fired on Move Members as they tried to escape the burning house. Police say the Move Members ran in and out of the house firing at them. Police ordered their officers and fire fighters to stay back. What is clear is that four hours later, 61 houses on the block were gone, and everyone inside the Move house, except for Ramona Africa and a 13-year-old boy, was dead.

The Aftermath

 

The city’s first Black Mayor had dropped a bomb on a Black Neighborhood.  In many ways, for African-Americans, it’s painful to remember. A commission that investigated, found that Goode and two other Officials, Police Commissioner Gregore Sambor, and Fire Commissioner William Richmond, had been “grossly negligent.” The deaths of the Move Children “appeared to be unjustified homicide,” it said. Police had not taken them out of the house when they had the chance. They had used excessive force in firing 10,000 rounds of ammunition into the house. The plan to drop explosives was “reckless” and “unconscionable.” And they let the fire burn until it was too late to control. Sambor resigned six months later. Richmond retired in 1988. Goode apologized tearfully on TV and was re-elected in 1988. Everybody was shouting at the television set, ‘Put out the fire!’ The fact that five children died, huddled in the basement of the Move House, brings tears to the eyes of many. I can’t help but imagine those last hours for these innocent and defenseless kids down in the basement. In Waco, Texas (Branch Davidian), Ruby Ridge, and now Move, the children were not spared, and not one single person has ever been brought to Justice. Bastards!

Who Is This Man?: What Role Did Lloyd England Play In The 9/11 Attack On The Pentagon?

Ever since that Tragic Day on September 11, when Americans learned that Commercial Aircraft were being deliberately crashed into Landmarks on U.S. Soil, there has been an ever growing compilation of Accounts, from Citizens who were actually there, T.V. Viewers, and Conspiracy Theorist whom all have chimed in on what they believe or  claim to know about the Events of that day, that cost the lives of countless Innocent American Citizens. The American People were told that Terrorist had successfully hijacked 5 Commercial Aircraft and began using the Planes as weapons against the United States of America. In the aftermath of this Tragedy, it was determined that Osama Bin Ladin’s Taliban Organization were responsible for the 9/11 Attacks. President George W. Bush made a case for War on Terrorism, Vowing to bring those responsible for the 9/11 attacks to Justice. The U.S. flexed her Military Might unto the Countries  of Iraq, Afghanistan, and now in Libya. Thousands of Young U.S. Service Men & Women would lose their lives abroad in an effort to dismantle what they were told was a proported Battle against a vicious Terrorist Regime. When the Dust settled we realized that the 9/11 Attacks on America were being classified as the most significant act of war on our Country ever. Then slowly, piece by piece, and to the dismay of some of America’s most Loyal Citizens, the evidence and Official response from those in our Government charged with sorting it all out, just didn’t add up. From the unusual manner in which the World Trade Center Towers came down to the Crime Scene in the Field in Pennsylvania, where one of the Aircraft mysteriously crashed, to the suspicious hole in the wall at the Pentagon that Authorities told the American Public, that one of the Hijacked Airplanes had crashed there,  and the evidence didn’t make sense, but the American People rallied behind our Government, and braced for War against those bastards that had killed Americans without cause.  Now a little over a decade later, many of us here in the U.S. and abroad know that what we were told, was nothing more then complete fabrication. Yes, a Big Fat Lie!  I can’t tell you where to begin to initiate an unraveling of the lies that Americans have been told about the events of 9/11. This will be debated for many years to come. However, If you are really interested in hearing some cold hard facts about this Tragic Day, then your in the right place.

The Smoking Gun

Forget about everything you remember about 9/11 for a moment. Forget about the Twin towers, and forget about the Plane that crashed in a field in rural Pennsylvania.  I want you to focus on the alleged attack on the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The National Transportation Safety Bureau’s Official Report outlining what occurred when the Airplane crashed into the Pentagon, has described the Airplane as having approached the Pentagon from a path deriving from the South. The report highlights an eyewitness account by the man depicted in the image above, Lloyd England, a D.C. Cab Driver, and who just happened to be on a bridge on 9/11 when the Airplane flew overhead stirring toward the Pentagon. England claims the Plane was at such a low altitude that it struck several light poles, causing one of them to fall crashing into the windshield of his Taxi Cab. England goes on to say in the report that a stranger assisted him in removing the rather large and heavy pole from on top of the vehicle. Images of the Crime Scene on the bridge indicate there were no scratches on the hood of the Cab. Also, the Glass and debris scattered about on the ground in front of the Cab appears odd considering the basic law of Physics. The NTSB Report claims the Plane was traveling at about 400-500 knots. Based on Physics, any object struck in the path of a speedy Aircraft of this magnitude would tend to also travel in the same direction. Most of the glass and debris should have landed in side of the Cab or toward the rear, when you investigate England’s account (said the light pole landed in the Cab’s back seat).

Notice the Glass and Debris scattered about in the opposite direction of the path in which the pole should have been traveling.

This is England’s Cab a day after 9/11. A light pole fell ontop of  the Cab, yet there isn’t a single scratch on the hood! What does any of this have to do with the 9/11 attacks? Trust me when I tell you that though these minor points appear trivial, they will ultimately prove that England’s Cab, the Light Pole, and other debris were staged by the 9/11 Conspirators. The fact that England attempted to change his account when pressed by independent investigators, his inconsistency in who helped him remove the pole from ontop of his cab (first it was a stranger; he later changed to his neighbor), and the fact that his Wife  is Employed by the Federal Bureau of Investigations are nothing in comparison to the Video Recording showing England admitting his involvement in the 9/11 Attack, that at least the Pentagon Attack was planned, and falling just short of outright confessing.  I should note that Lloyd England came to fame after Investigators made a Freedom of Information Act Request of the Eyewitness Accounts of the Plane crashing into the Pentagon. The single most important argument has been the actual Flight Path of the Plane that crashed into the Pentagon. Every single witness described seeing the Plane approaching from the North, a few saw it ascending (going up), and one witness reported seeing a low flying Plane when he ran outside of the Pentagon after hearing an explosion. After the explosion? Yes after the Plane allegedly crashed into the Pentagon an eyewitness saw a low flying aircraft. During the Recorded Interview of this witness, he is observed saying “a second plane”. A second Plane? There can only be one explanation for this. The low flying Plane that everyone saw, never crashed into the Pentagon at all. Something else must have hit the Pentagon, and the Crime Scene Images supports this argument, as the hole in the side of the Pentagon could barely fit just the Tail portion of the huge Boeing 757 that Authorities claim struck the building, until 30 minutes later when a portion of the wall collapsed. Not just that but Authorities want Americans to believe that a Boeing 757 made of lightweight aluminum, penetrate over 9 ft. of steel reinforced concrete with piercing clean round holes, and leave no evidence of itself. The only accounts that say the Plane approached from the south are from the Federally controlled NTSB and Mr. Lloyd England. Given the weird nature of the evidence that the Government has offered, it is clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Cab & light Pole portion of the NTSB Report was made up. hell he even admits that it was all planned.

The Hard Facts

Where are the bodies? Supposedly 100 Tons of steel and titanium alloy completely disintegrated, yet, government forensics teams claim to have identified 180+ bodies. This is just on ‘paper’. No witnesses saw any bodies, no witnesses saw damage consistent with a 757 slamming onto the lawn and Pentagon. Furthermore, can physics explain why there is no damage to the Pentagon’s upper floors where the tail section would have hit? Given that the outer wall of the Pentagon had not yet collapsed and the only hole is approximately 16 ft. in diameter, how does a plane over 44 feet tall and 125 ft. wide fit into that hole as shown in the photographic evidence from the Pentagon?

Image of Pentagon prior to Point of Impact Section falling.

Close-ups of this section are extremely revealing. Why were America and the world never shown the video and photographs of the Pentagon, BEFORE the outer wall had collapsed showing only one 16 ft. hole. Many people do not realize that the outer wall did not collapse until almost 30 minutes after the initial impact. Why doesn’t the Pentagon structure show any significant damage outside of the 16 ft Hole? The wing span of the 757 is approximately 125 ft.

Notice the structural damage only appears vertical. The wall collapsed 30 minutes after impact covering the 16 ft hole. There is no structural damage where the 757’s 125 ft horizontal wing span should have caused significant damge. How does this lightweight Plane pierce the Pentagon’s fortified structure and make only a spiraling circular hole through 3 layers of the building?

Not to mention, the 757 supposedly disintegrated, yet, you can see un-burnt desks, and un-melted computer screens immediately next to the impact sections. Also, remember Lloyd England’s eyewitness account of the Plane’s flight Path deriving from the South? the below images shows how absurd that actually is.

Now take a look of the Closeup of the Pentagon. Notice the roof top damage path as it appears to head toward the right side of the building. It’s about a 45 degree angle rightward from the point of impact.

What ever hit the Pentagon did so at a rightward 45 degree angle. which would support every eyewitness account (other than England’s and the NTSB Official Report) that the Plane approached the Pentagon from the North.

More evidence of the rightward 45 degree angle supporting a Northern originated flight Path. To make my point crystal clear here, Lloyd England’s Account of a Plane traveling from a southern approach is complete bullshit and he is a liar. Moreover, Officials claim the jet disintegrated due to the heat. 12-ton titanium alloy engines, wings, fuselage, all gone. In the aftermath, it was reported by media sources that, A giant 100 ft. crater was plowed into the front lawn of the Pentagon as the result of a powerful airliner crash? Why does photographic evidence overwhelmingly show that this was absolutely not the case? Why no crater? Why no skid marks? Why no burn marks? Why was the entire world deliberately mislead? Pentagon Crash has NO EVIDENCE of a jet-liner. These 3 pictures are the only evidence whatsoever that an airliner crashed at the Pentagon.

There seems to be a few ‘clean & placed’ pieces of plane, small enough to carry off, the lawn, which was undisturbed. Not one seat cushion. No engines. No Vertical Stabilizer. No wing sections. Nothing…. Nothing but pictures. And of course, these ‘pieces’ have since, conveniently disappeared and cannot be analyzed. 

They say everything simply   disintegrated despite these extremely pertinent facts.

– Pratt & Whitney / Roll Royce engines

– 12′ x 9′ Diameter Titanium steel alloy

– 6 tons each

– Melting point of titanium: 1,688°

– Max burning Temp of Jet-Fuel: 1,120°

One of 2 6 ton Boeing 757 Engines the Government wants you to believe   disintegrated in the Attack on the Pentgon on 9/11.

Unfortunately there are people in our society who love to hate, and no matter what clear, cut, and dry evidence you present to them, there will always be skeptics who want, love to, and can’t resist displaying hatred for other Cultures simply because the United States Government said they are bad people, and are responsible for this heinous act. This Documentary (The 9/11 Pentagon Attack) in which Lloyd England admits his involvement, states that the attack on the Pentagon was planned, that he and one of the Conspirators came over the bridge together that day, and his sudden attempt to change his story still isn’t enough for some to believe that our Government did the unthinkable. No way a Boeing AA 757 crashed into the Pentagon as Government Officials say it did.

A three year independent investigation into the September 11, 2001 attack on the Pentagon has yielded new eyewitness evidence which, according to the Southern California-based researchers who conducted the investigation, “conclusively (and unfortunately) establishes as a historical fact that the violence which took place in Arlington that day was not the result of a surprise attack by suicide hijackers, but rather a military black operation involving a carefully planned and skillfully executed deception.” They have compiled the most pertinent testimony into an 81 minute video presentation entitled National Security Alert, which has earned the respect and praise of a growing number of distinguished academics, journalists, writers, entertainers, pilots, and military personnel alike.

No way this is an AA 757

A Word From The Peoples Champ: My Perspective On The Phylicia Barnes Mystery

As a Human Interest Writer and Trained Journalist, I very rarely if ever respond publicly to criticism of my literary work. My intent has always been to offer a perspective regarding News Worthy Stories that appeal to the masses, and also for the purpose of stimulating dialogue, consciousness, and critical thinking where by society at large may arrive at an individual resolve. Though much of my work derives from a subjective posture, I seek to generate responses from a diverse audience, and I anticipate unfavorable feedback from this vast readership.  That being said, I am extremely compelled to address comments recently posted on Twitter, Facebook, and other Social Medium about my Blog Post(s) related to the Phylicia Barnes Case. Readers have purused The Peoples Champion Blog and made diligent efforts to either down play key “facts” (based on an analyzation of the Barnes Siblings account in their own words) that I have pointed out in my own Investigation of the case, or have sought to discourage other Readers from entertaining my Perspective by posting comments such as, “That Blog isn’t real”. First in foremost, my Blog is very real, developed by me, and the Barnes Case hits very close to home as I am a concerned Citizen and Native Baltimorean with a Teen Daughter currently living in the City. Secondly, I don’t recall ever stating in any of my Blog Post that I was an actual Investigator assigned to the Phylicia Barnes Case. If that were the true, any public dissemination of evidence surrounding the investigation would not be prudent nor ethical on my part in that regard. Moreover, I find it interesting as well as insightful that individuals seek to cause distraction at the mere implication of the Barnes Siblings as possible suspects in Phylicia’s mysterious and tragic ending. My perspective isn’t a premise originating from Media Reports on the case, but rather a personal suspicion and conclusion after hearing what the elder Barnes female children had to say about their Baby Sisters disappearance. The seemingly lack of grief, inconsistency in their accounts, laughter, whispering, and other unusual behavior under questioning during the Blogtalk Radio Broadcast should narrow the field of possible suspects responsible for this child’s death. Consequently, in my mind I feel the Barnes Sisters should not only be included in he list of possible suspects, but rather their involvement is more than likely at the very apex. Excluding my opinion, a reasonable, rational thinking person, and using a common sense approach should have some serious revelations about these Women’s account on the day Phylicia went missing. As I have stated previously, the public is unaware of what they have already stated to Authorities on record, the Blogtalk Interview speaks for it’s self, and either these two women are the the most pathetically ignorant females in all of Baltimore or something is drastically afoul. I would personally gravitate to the later. I will not revisit previous Blog Post with redundant particulars that I have already pointed out. However, it should be noted here that I stand firmly behind my perspective on this case uti lizing the Blogtalk Broadcast as my primary argument. Also, the individuals responsible for taking this child’s life will have an extremely limit period in the cloak, because as of this past Wednesday Police Authorities got the biggest break to date, as the Maryland Chief Medical Examiner ruled Phylicia’s death a homicide. I should also say that I hope I am wrong about any implication of her family. This would be an even bigger tragedy. Sadly though, my instincts tells me that this case is headed toward an even darker desolate path. I pray for speedy justice in this case as well as continued comforting for the Barnes Family. God Speed!

Second Body Found In Susquehanna River Identified: Not Connected To Phylicia Barnes Case Authorities Say

On the morning that Maryland State Natural Resource Police pulled the badly decomposed remains of Phylicia Barnes from the Susquehanna River, little did they know that their work had just begun. A very short time later, crews working south of the Conowingo Dam alerted them that they had happened upon yet another body in the River. Those remains were in a similar condition as was that of the Barnes Kid. Nude, badly decomposed, and no clues pointing to how either of them may have gotten there. Preliminary findings disclosed that the second human remains was that of a 6′,4″ , 240 pound male, and led Authorities to contemplate whether the two suspicious deaths were related. Many hoped that the second remains would offer new hope in finding what happened to the Barnes kid. Another body offered even more Physical Evidence to aid Investigators in discovering New Leads in the missing  Teenager’s Disappearance Case. All of those hopes were quickly dashed away when Members of the Maryland State Police Forensic Sciences Division Latent Print Unit notified investigators late yesterday they had matched fingerprints from the body with prints entered in the National Crime Information Center database for missing persons. That person  has been identified as Darryl Harper, 53, of Richmond, Va. State Police contacted Harper’s Wife in Richmond and learned that she had filed a Missing Person’s report April 15, 2011, and that he had left their Virginia Home in March of this year. These facts confirmed that his death was in no way related to the Missing 16 year old from Monroe, N.C. It appears that the discovery of the bodies has ended in closure for one grieving family, yet a continuing and widening mystery for another. Barring State Police obtaining assistance from the physical remains of Phylicia’s Body after Autopsy and Toxicology reports surface they are right back at square one, and will have to jump start the case from information obtained during the Interviews of those closes to her. “Needless to say the Autopsy is crucial to the case. Medical Examiners will be able to tell whether or not a person was alive prior to going in the water. The condition of the lungs and dilution of the Blood may possibly indicate the manner of Death was through drowning.  Also, the emission of gases which effect swelling, colorization of Body Tissue, and other Aquatic Biology may offer clues as to the duration of the Body’s exposure to the water,”  says Professor Tara Cohen, Forensic Science Educator.  Many are hoping that the decomposed body of Phylicia Barnes will reveal some clues that will culminate in the discovery of what events lead to the Child’s tragic ending.

Phylicia Barnes Sibling’s Account Don’t Add Up: Police Break In Teen’s Killing Case May Start With Sisters

The Conowingo Dam: Located in Northern Maryland, separating Hardford and Cecil Counties, and the site where the physical remains of Phylicia Barnes was discovered

Now that the body of Pretty Monroe, N.C. Honor Teen Phylicia Barnes has been pulled from the fast streaming waters of the Susquehanna River in Northern Maryland, it’s time to take a closer look at some of the cold hard facts surrounding the death of this beloved child. Many of us may never know what information Police Investigators have discovered during their interview of the young girl’s Sisters, Family, and Friends until the case becomes closed and a matter of Public Record. However, I find myself revisiting a Blog Talk Radio Broadcast by “Two Peas In Their Pod Radio” in which the Barnes Siblings were Interviewed about their Baby Sister’s Disappearance. I can’t help but notice the lack of any authentic grief or even desperation on the part of the teen girl’s Half Sisters. During the Interview Deena Barnes appeared to be stumped by questions, pausing for very awkward periods of time, providing extremely selective information, whispering, and even displaying instances of laughter. In contrast, Older Sister Kelly appeared coached, inattentive far too frequently, and could also be overheard whispering as well. Listeners may not have picked up on all of the nuances going on, but a trained investigative ear listening to the Broadcast would most certainly have been troubled by the sister’s actions.

If these facts are not disturbing enough, Sisters Deena, and Kelly Barnes’ accounts of the day that young Phylicia Barnes went missing, are just as baffling. Police typically do not show their hands during Investigations of this nature in fear of tipping off possible suspects. I feel so strongly about the implication of the Barnes Siblings that I would venture to say, “They were suspects from the gate”. Now that’s a broad leap considering Police Investigating the Barnes Case have continuously said that they have no leads. That was before they discovered the teen dead. Whatever suspicions that Cops may have had regarding the Sibling’s involvement may now surface after the Autopsy and Toxicology findings come in. Hopefully, the young girl’s physical remains will spur some clues as to what actually happened to her on the day she went missing.  Don’t take my word for it that the Barnes sisters may be implicated, listen for yourselves:

Barnes Siblings Interview On Blogtalk 

The nearly 21/2 hours long Bt Interview is so alarming that Sisters Deena and Kelly Barnes along with Deena’s so called Ex-Boyfriend, and his younger Brother or Cousin (which ever is true as Deena had trouble on the accuracy of these facts) should be prime suspects. Deena and Kelly Barnes account doesn’t make any sense at all, adds serious doubt about the credibility of their accounts, and seems suspicious to the point that they appear deceptive. Why? Who were they whispering to during the BT Interview? Were they trying to get their stories straight? These are just a few of the many questions that I am sure Listeners walked away from that interview with. It very well maybe that they aren’t involved at all, but their posturing during the interview raises a valid suspicion.

December 28, 2010 Timeline 

08:45 a.m. Deena Says she leaves for work and Phylicia is asleep

10:00 a.m. Deena Says she exchanged Text with Phylicia about shopping later on for Hair Care and Skin Care  Products. Kelly also claims to have spoken to Phylicia around the same time about her picking Phylicia up after work to get her hair done.

11:30 a.m.   Deena says it’s the last time she received Text messages from Phylicia.

12:30 p.m.   Deena says she speaks with her Ex-Boyfriend who is now at the apartment to pick up his younger  Brother (Deena later changes her story from his Brother to Younger Cousin) and is told by him that Phylicia is asleep on the couch. Deena adopts the mindset I’ll let her sleep.

12:30 p.m.    Kelly says she calls Phylicia but doesn’t get an answer.

1:30   p.m.     Kelly says she calls Phylicia again unsuccessfully, but doesn’t go by Deena’s apartment to pick her up as scheduled,  and assumes Phylicia is still asleep at Deena’s.

3:08  p.m.     Kelly calls Phylicia again unsuccessfully then calls Deena to see if Phylicia is with her. The Sisters  conclude that Phylicia is still asleep as the Ex-Boyfriend told her, and the decide to let her sleep.

5:00 p.m.     Deena’s Ex-Boyfriend notifies her that he arrives back at the apartment with the door unlocked,  loud music is playing in the apartment, and Phylicia is not there. Tells Deena maybe she went to get something to eat.

6:00 p.m.     Deena arrives home and there is still no sign of Phylicia.

7:30 p.m.     Deena Barnes sounds the alarm and calls Baltimore Police and her Dad about Phylicia’s Disappearance.

9:00 p.m.     Janice Sallis, Phylicia’s Mother calls Deena Barnes to speak with Phylicia after several  unsuccessful attempts to reach her Daughter via her Cell Phone, and is told by Deena that Phylicia is missing!

During the BT Interview it was revealed by Deena Barnes that not only was her Ex-Boyfriend at the apartment with her Baby sister, the Ex’s Younger Brother/Cousin was there, and lives there. I am extremely challenged to understand why a seemingly intelligent Young Professional like Deena Barnes (Licensed Pharmacy Tech) could leave her Little Sister alone in an apartment  with a strange older male. Deena offers the rationalization that the Ex was moving out on an ongoing basis since early December. It’s December 28th and he hasn’t gotten all of his stuff out of the apartment yet? Excuse me, but if I have to take a day off from work to be there so you can get all of your belongings then so be it. It won’t be none of this coming back and forth. This knucklehead like statement cast serious doubt on whether he was actually her Ex. I mean who does that? Allow an Ex to continuously come by on a regular basis and he still has a key? Also, you leave your Sister there knowing he could just drop by at anytime. What if she was in the shower or indisposed?  Why all the Texting between Deena, Kelly, and Phylicia. From 10:00 until 12:30 they simply texted her. Neither of the Sisters called Phylicia during this time frame. Kelly calls her 3 times at 12:30, 1:30 (the time she is to pick her up), and 3:08. If you are going to pick her up to get her hair done at 1:30 why didn’t you go by there? The Ex says she was asleep at 12:30. I find it hard to believe that Young Phylicia was asleep an hour prior to the time Kelly was to pick her up. I mean it doesn’t make sense considering that’s all Phylicia talked to her Big Sisters about earlier that day, was going shopping and getting her hair done. Not only that, but Deena just takes the Ex’s word for it that Phylicia is asleep. I’m sorry, 2 possibly 3 men are in the apartment with my Pretty Little Sister, and you don’t ask to speak to her? Wake her up, put my Sister on the Phone, or better yet I have to go home because I have a family emergency. You go by there and get your little Sister. I mean what was Deena thinking? At 3:08 Kelly informs Deena that she can’t contact Phylicia and neither of them go by the apartment. That’s simply absurd. They had no need to go by there, because I believe they already knew what had happen to Phylicia. That’s just me but anyway. Kelly was scheduled to pick Phylicia up between 1-1:30 to take her to get her hair done. Why didn’t Kelly go by Deena’s anyway, I mean Phylicia could have still been getting dressed or in the shower. It wasn’t until 3:08 when Kelly learned that Phylicia was possibly sleeping after she called Deena. Why did Kelly wait nearly 2 hours to try and contact Phylicia? After all they did have plans to go to the Hair Salon. Did Kelly actually have intentions on picking Phylicia up? The fact that Kelly failed to go by the apartment (she lives a few blocks away) seems suspicious and is problematic. From 3:08 – 6:00 when Deena arrived home, neither of the Sisters had attempted to call Phylicia. Also, at 5:00 when Deena’s Ex advised her that he found the apartment door unlock and Phylicia was not there, Deena did not immediately leave work to go by her apartment to investigate what was going on, nor did she call Kelly who lives near by to ask her to go by the apartment. There are a lot of questions surrounding the Barnes Sisters actions or lack there of on the day that Phylicia went missing. We don’t know what they reportedly have told the Police as of yet, but the Blogtalk Radio interview seems to offer a plethora of circumstances where the Sisters failed to properly and adequately checkup on their Baby Sister. The explanations they have offered (at least in the BTI) are not logical from a responsible adult’s standpoint. The fact that at least Deena knew that their were young men in the apartment with Phylicia and the crime plagued Park Heights Neighborhood where Deena and Kelly both lived, should have been more then enough incentive for at least one of  these Women to go by the apartment to check on Phylicia after several failed attempts to contac her. The reality is that they didn’t. A huge dark cloud now hovers above these Women and you have to wonder if the accounts they offered has any validity what so ever. To add insult to injury, neither of the Barnes sisters contacted Janice Sallis to inform her that Phylicia was missing. Ms. Sallis called because she hadn’t her from her Pretty daughter. Perhaps the most telling fact about this case is that Deena’s Ex has hired an attorney even though Police say he isn’t a suspect. During the BTI Kelly was asked what she believes may have happened to Phylicia? Kelly responded, “I think she trusted someone she thought she could trust”. I can’t help but wonder if Kelly Barnes knows who that “someone” is?

Cowardly Heartless Killers Run Ramped: A Surge In Vicious Attacks In Baltimore As Women Fall Prey

The News Story made National Media Headlines, was featured on Nightline, and set a New Standard for Violence in Baltimore City when 4 young Black Men Killed 5 Women Execution Style in the City’s Belair Edison Community. The Killings sparked outrage by Women Rights Advocate Organizations and became characterized as the Apex of Violence against Baltimore Women in Modern Time . The perpetrators,  Ismael Malik Wilson, (28), Travon McCoy, (22), Robert Bryant, (24), and Tariq A. Malik, (21) were apprehended and brought to swift justice. These crimes occurred just over 12 years ago, but the Culture of Vicious and extremely violent crimes against Women appears relentless in Baltimore, as Killers roam with “No Limit’. The latest victim was a 24 year old unidentified Women, who was shot multiple times in the head, and torso. Police responded to the Park Heights section of the City in response to calls of shots fired, and found the African American female lying in a pool of blood behind an Apartment Complex. She was transported to Sinai Hospital where she was pronounced dead around 0937 hours EST. This killling is only a few miles from the location where Monroe, NC Honor Teen Phylicia Barnes was last seen before her mysterious disappearance. That case also made the National Media Circuit but Authorities have yet to get a solid lead on the case. Also, Police have no leads or motives in the killing of last night’s female victim. While Responders handle the Park Heights Shooting, there was a car  chase that ended in a crash just blocks away, related to another shooting of two Women that originated in Dundalk, MD. Details about that shooting have not been made to the Public. In the Remington section of the City, Police announce the arrest and apprehension of the Killer allegedly responsible for the Murder of  promising Coppin State University Nursing Student, Jhoma Blackwell, (18).

Blackwell was brutally stabbed to death in her North Baltimore home in recent weeks. The City Government is concerned about the rash of stabbings in the City as these types of crimes have spiked %15 in comparison to this time last year. Moreover, An alleged member of a Baltimore drug organization tied to a rash of violence across the city has been charged with attempted murder after police say he dumped scalding hot water on a 71-year-old man and a 51-year-old woman to punish them for stealing drugs. The victims denied taking any of the drugs, but Rich and two other men began assaulting them with sticks and a glass ashtray, police say. The attackers then forced them to remove their clothing and sit in a bathtub, heating water on the stove until it was scalding and dumping on them. I  will not make excuses for this kind of sickening behavior occurring in my Hometown. As an educated Black Man with a Daughter, and countless other female relatives living in Baltimore, I will not stand by idle with a position of apathy while Violent Criminals attack Women of any kind. In case you haven’t noticed, these kinds on crimes do not occur in the American Muslim Community. The standard has been long established as to the consequences of such an action in our Communities. In instances of this nature Street Justice would more than likely prevail without fail. Certainly it is not my position to advocate more Violence, however, every Man is charged with the Obligatory Duty to protect the female members of his Family. A short time ago I wrote an article indicating how the African American Women was  the most disrespected female on the planet. I will not revisit that discussion here, but my hope is that I have shed light on a growing concern impacting Women of Color. I am a Human Interest Writer and I can not envision anything of more importance than the welfare and safety of our Beloved Sisters. Take a proactive stance against Violence toward Women and write your Congress Person to aid in the development of Legislation making Violent Crimes agains Women a Federal Offense punishable by Life without Parole or Death.

Young Teen’s Trail Gets Colder: Massive Police Search Reveals Body But Not Phylicia Barnes

 

They brought ATVs (All Terrain Vehicles), Heat Seeking Helicopters, Law Enforcement from 10 Local, Federal, State Agencies, and volunteers from the Guardian Angels as well as Students from Coppin State and Morgan state Universities to the Pataspco State Park in a massive effort to locate the remains of 17 year old Phylicia Barnes. It has been nearly 4 months since the Monroe, NC Honor Student went missing late December of 2010.

 

Phylicia Barnes Senior Portrait

 

Police Officials were pretty tight lipped about the circumstances that led Police back to the area surrounded by Howard and Baltimore Counties where they had searched for the Barnes Kid before. However, sources closed to the case revealed that Investigators wanted to revisit the location because a prior search was hindered by cold weather and with the ground warming, Police were enabled to conduct a more extensive search. The details related to this recent effort reveals that Authorities appear to have switched gears from discovering the whereabouts of the Pretty and Petite Teen, to recovering her physical remains. Volunteers involved in the search say it was a very gloomy scene making the trek in and around the creeks, woods, and spacious grounds of the Historic Maryland State Park. It became even more saddening when searchers came upon a partially decomposed body. Those remains were fully clothed, not that of Phylicia Barnes, and determined to be a Male. Authorities are awaiting Autopsy Reports to determine the cause of that death. Authorities admit that they are completely stumped with the Barnes Case as no creditable leads have surfaced. Those more affiliated  with the case say that the Pataspco revisit confirms that at least one of the young men questioned about the Barnes disappearance is continuing to be a person of interest, as Authorities were led to the Park near his home early on in the Investigation. Anonymous tips about the case have come to a staggering decline from about 100 calls a month to just a mere 5. It seems that Phylica Barnes has vanished from the face of the Earth with no clues, with out reasoning, no physical evidence to point suspicion upon anyone, and simply nothing to answer the persistent question, “Why”? We Pray and ask God above for understanding, Grace, and comfort in coping with the seemingly cruel realities of  this cold world. In that, we reflect upon our own lives, yet remembering a life possibly lost, and wondering what could have been in the life of such a Beautiful Young Flower. Where are you young Phylicia?
