The final episode is here! Let us all take a moment to mourn the loss of the seven people who were ruthlessly taken away from their families on that fateful night of December 28th, 2000. Their names, Ronette Abrams, Alfred Goodwin, George Porter, Malik Harris, Calvin Helton, and Tyrone Long Jr., must not fade into oblivion. We owe it to them to remember their names and the potential futures that were robbed from them. Let their tragic fate serve as a stark reminder that we must strive to create a society that values human life above all else.
