CHICAGO (WLS) -- A man who worked as a choir conductor and school teacher was found Sunday shot to death. The victim is 47-year-old Donald Young.
Young's death has been ruled a homicide. His body was discovered Sunday morning inside his South Side home at 2320 E. 69th St.
Donald Young was the fourth of eight siblings. He was, according to those who loved him, the type of person who didn't take life for granted. He lived every day to the fullest. So whether it was in the South Side classroom where he taught, or at church conducting the choir every Sunday, Young made an impression on those who met him.
"He was one of those success stories, the average person would look at and say he doesn't have a chance," said Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Trinity United Church of Christ.
And yet, before his death , Donald Young succeeded mightily. He was a choir conductor at Trinity United Church of Christ for many years. Amateur video shot just last week shows him doing what for him wasn't a profession but a calling.

I hadn’t heard this. Did Sinclair give hints about what may have happened, by whom, and why?

The plot thickens.
Just when you thought Clintonian tactics were reserved only for those the Clintons wanted gone....

Sinclair implies, without coming out and stating it, that Donald Young and Barack Obama were on the “down low.”

No clues on why or how, but it is interesting that this guy called Sinclair a number of times (allegedly)

"He was one of those success stories, the average person would look at and say he doesn't have a chance," said Rev. Jeremiah Wright
One of the obstacles he faced in life was having a pastor/employer who was convinced he had loser written all over him.
This guy is a detestable prick on so many levels.

I wonder if there's anything additional about this in the church's Trumpet magazine? Maybe the Feb. '08 or Mar. '08 issue(s), one would think.

Cant blame whitey for this one. You haven't been listening. Everything is our fault.
I imagine in the "Rev" Wright's church, Adam and Eve were black, and it was a whitesnake...

Oh, I get it. :O)

This whole story is bizarre, and so is this church.
