>> The family, legislators and media call for the release of the tape that shows the death of a 14-year-old in a boot camp.

If the boy actually died during the beating, as this subhead states, any suggestion that Sickle Cell disease caused his death is false.

Thanks for the story link, FV. The kid was heading for major trouble. His family did the right thing by deciding that he needed a lesson and discipline, though. It just saddens me that they will feel guilt over that decision for many years to come.

That story of Martin Anderson brings to mind the many times that the state of Florida let Terri down. So many places where protection should have been implemented, but weren't. Florida needs a good house-cleaning, IMHO. It's needed one for years. (Of course, Ohio needs a house-cleaning too, and if Blackwell becomes governor, we may just get one.)
