Delayed Justice

Keeping the images and names of the murdered or disappeared before the pubic is a very good idea. Grand Rapids’ Silent Observer has now posted seven large reminders that the murderers of Christopher “Joel” Battaglia, 23, Patricia Glass, 39, Bonita Oom, 34, Brian Martinez, 22, Terrance L. Stokes Jr., 20, Khiry Jalon Walker, 17, and Alan Wayne Foster, 41, have so far eluded the punishment that’s owing them for their crimes.

You can read the first story from MLive by Andrew Krietz here in “Billboards to feature four of Grand Rapids’ unsolved murders,” and the second, “Silent Observer places three more billboards in attempt to solve Grand Rapids’ cold cases.”

This is a great way to apply and keep up the pressure that is now needed to solve these crimes. We’re certain that someone knows something; the need is for that someone to come forward, even if anonymously.
