Please read my post #21 for info. I’d bet anything that if he had been a GJ witness, his family would’ve known that, and would’ve spilled the beans in their grief. They believed he wasn’t into drugs. His FB page suggested otherwise.
I am in your camp as well in that his family would likely have told someone that DeAndre had been a witness.
The black mafia thugs could put enough fear in the Ferguson community to silence even his family.
