They say no one has been arrested and charged with their loved one’s murder, so it is time for people to come forward and start talking.
“You know who you are! You know who you are! And I didn’t stutter when I said it! Come forward, be accountable and don’t be a coward!,” Ronnie Sparks, April Sparks’ uncle, said. “If you know something, you should say something because in our eyes you are just as guilty as the person or the cowards that pulled the trigger!”
