Its a shame that he couldn’t have lived to see his work vindicated so completely.

I feel that McCarthy was an American hero who sacrificed his reputation, his health, and eventually, his life to bring this issue to the forefront where it belonged.

I can only hope that someday someone in power has the courage and wherewithal to make it happen.
