Jeremy was a Freshman, despite the fact he tested out as a 12 year old physically and mentally. Sunny Natured clown of a kid. Still sitting on the floor playing with Hot Wheels.
On April 11, 1989 he was late coming home from school. I heard the ER vehicles, as we were on the main drag for them, so you learn to kind of tune them out. Jeremy was ambushed with in a few hundred feet of home, behind a old ice plant, just over the RR tracks. Our neighbor’s child came banging on the door saying Jeremy had fallen off the ice plant. This was a mild Down’s child of 8 years old.
Jeremy was ambushed and struck from behind with a 2 ft section of fence post, 16 blows, the first blow to the back of the head killed him we were told. The sociopath went and bragged about it to his buddies, and brought them to see what he’d done he was that proud of killing Jeremy. One of them called the police, he was on the side lines watching until some one pointed him out. Then he ran, got caught shortly. We spent 2 yrs in court for a lousy 20 yr plea deal for 1st Degree murder down to 2nd, with a sentence range of 10-30, the RINO AG on the case chose 20. I fought my first of 6 parole hearings just 10 months later. The 2 yrs he sat in 201 Poplar, Memphis, TN adult jail counted on his 20 yrs. I made him serve his time until he reached his ‘good’ behavior max out time. They turned him lose, knowing he would be a repeat offender some time down the road. You are not allowed to keep track of them.
It’s the reason I fight for Nikki, Jeremy played with her brothers. Her mom is my friend of 26 yrs. You do not have to live in TN to voice you opinion to TN RINO governor on riding the earth of the vermin who raped and killed an 8 year old little girl.
You never forget or get over such horrendous tragedy.
