I am so sick of these disgusting people hurting children and innocent people.
I pray Michaels mother can find some peace. Hearing her talk hurts my soul.
Thank you for covering this case. Michael’s body has not yet been found. We still need to keep this in the news, because the other three suspects and possibly others know more than they are admitting. Michael’s mother deserves to have her baby boy home.
I watch a lot of true crime but that press conference with Brandy has stuck with me. I can’t imagine losing a child much less like that.
This is my hometown! I promise you when I say this, we ALL cried tears of relief for this baby and his family the day the arrest was announced. 😢😭
What a vile and a dispicable horrible excuse for a human beings.This deserves the DP no question.Lets all hope the mom finally has some closer. 😞
Damn I wish I could bring her son back for her. So sad
He look’s just like his mother RIP Michael 😢🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
It was really heartbreaking for the mother to recall the sad story that happened to her son. I wish her all the best!
