The “Boys on the Tracks”: Still Waiting for Justice

This month is the 15th anniversary marking the brutal murders of Don Henry and Kevin Ives, who were unwitting witnesses to a police-protected drug drop in a small community south of Little Rock, Arkansas. This drug drop was part of a smuggling operation based out of Mena, Arkansas.

Don Henry and Kevin Ives were just 17 years old and approaching their senior year of high school when they were murdered. What should have been a memorable year for these two boys resulted in tragedy. Unfortunately, no one has been convicted for the murders of Don Henry and Kevin Ives. The cover-up concerning the murders of Don Henry and Kevin Ives has been going on for 15 years now. When will the Ives and Henry families see their sons’ killers brought to justice for these heinous crimes?

Please pray for the Ives and Henry families. Also, please pray that God will grant those with the power and authority to bring these killers to justice, the wisdom, prudence, and crucial moral discernment, to do so.

“This story has as much national consequence as any story in America. However, it does not have a conclusion, because no one - NO ONE - to date, has ever been indicted for the crimes of Mena, including for the murders of Kevin Ives and Don Henry. The cover-ups have been continual and perpetual.”--Linda Ives

Asa Hutchinson's promotion to the DEA should have been enough for even the staunchest anti-legalizer to consider the inherent corruption of the Drug War. Alas, like the 10 year anniversary of Ruby Ridge, the neo-Cons prefer debating troop movements in the Middle East.

Ping this unforgotten mark left by (Bill Cl.) Arkansas drug cartel.

Hey - what more could they ask for? A nebelous "war on terrorism" can justify even more Federal authority and budgets than the "war on drugs" and the "war on poverty" combined. Plus it is much easier to piggy back the justification for Empire on the tragedy of 9/11 and "terrorism" than it is to do so with drugs and poverty.

Thanks for the heads up!

The Congress passed a billion dollar budget of essentially military aid to fight the drug war in Columbia; that bill had smoother sailing than the Homeland Defense Bill. No, I am still keeping my eye on Asa's Adeventures with South America Part II.

I guess that you can't cut and paste links directly out of Microsoft Word.

Keep it up, never forget.

I lived in Arkansas during that period, even met Jughead in his office. This story is right on, stinks to high heaven. We all had suspicions and rumors back then, and this story fits squarely with every intuition I've had about the corruption and organization.

While I don't accuse Bill Clinton of directly being involved in the murders, I do blame him for the coverup. That seems to have been the pattern, illegal acts by cronies and minions, then covered up when their actions started to float to the top. Just like with OBL and terrorism in the 90's.

Bad links.

It was my fault, I fixed it.
