Crime Lab seeks fund hike

More than four months after Dennis Holmes died at the Walnut Grove Youth Correctional Facility, the cause of his death has yet to be determined.

[Concerned]

I feel like the issue is being dealt with all wrong. People need to understand that , that is a prison and things happen there that is hard to explain much less figure out. I feel for the family, but the one person who can say what really happened is not here anymore, so let's not point the finger at no one person, instead, let's try and figure out how to keep our youths out of there.

and if he were your son? he was there for a non-violent offense, a property crime. Should he come up dead and then it is just shrugged off?

[justiceforjuveni les]

he was starved to death, that was no accident and should be easy to determine how and why it happened and someone should be held accountable.

Yea he was starved to death. Somebody was taken his food. It was no accident. My friend was in the Grove when that happen

my main concern is if some one was taking his food something should have been done about that if that is really what happen to him because I have heard all kinds of horrible things about that place

What about the Jeffrey K. Havard story? There is absolutly no evidence in this case. The man is setting on DEATH ROW!!!And all the state of Mississippi can say is " We don't have to give a reason" in this last appeal.After finding Medical Examiner Steven Haynes to be incompitant, and being (fired) from his position.Mr. Haynes has been all over the news and even on utube broadcast yourself that he could not remember where he recieved his CERTIFICATION!!Also,"Know ing That" The State must Recognize MR.Haynes mental capability isn't up to par."
