“Justin Barker walked out of the boys Jim and a bunch of black boy were gathered around the ground and the black boys started kickin him. The boy that through the first lick was Mike Bell and the ones that were kicking him was Theo Shaw & Carwin Jones & Robert Bailey. It was a big crowd of them and Barker had done nothing to the boys.”
LJ- Jena 6 Incident 13
“Me and JO was walking out of the gym when all of a sudden a tall black boy came running from the side and jumped Justin Barker and slammed his head on the concrete beam that people sometimes sit on. Theo Shaw and a group of other blacks were all standing there waiting on Justin and after he was knocked out cold on the ground Carwin Jones and Robert Bailey started kicking his head for no reason at all.
Me & JO looked over and there was blood pouring out of his ears and his hands were shaking because he was knocked out cold. Mrs. Sharp made us go to class.”
“Me and JH and Justin and KR were walking out of the gym. Me and JH were in front of them. It was a lot of black people standing in front of the gym and me and JH walked out by them. When I heard one of them black boys say that there’s that white mother f***er that was running his mouth. Then I turned around and I seen somebody hit him but I don’t know who hit him. Then he fell in between the concrete barrier by the gym door.And I seen Carwin Jones and Robert Bailey hitting him and kicking him. It was so many black boys standing around him I really couldn’t tell who else was hitting him. All I knew was that all of us …… before they hurt him worse. I know I got Carwin Jones and Robert off because I knocked them two off and I landed on them two.
And when them two ran off, another black boy name RB stepped across him and stepped on his face and he smarted off something. And I pushed him away and then some boy grabbed me and then all the coaches were there. And we went to the office.”
