* So here is why the Alfred Wright murder looks suspicious:
Alfred Wright disappeared after work and was missing for nineteen days not that far from where James Byrd Jr. was dragged to death in a lynching and where lynching has been a fairly common activity. Authorities stopped looking after four days. His body was found stripped right where the authorities were looking. The official claim is that the clean cut young man randomly went on a drug bender, stripped himself, started decomposing, was beaten and cut up by wild animals presumably wielding knives in their paws, and insects stole his teeth without eating his soft tissue. He then died about three hours after his family found his dead body in the early stages of composition, because that totally makes sense. They refuse to investigate the obvious murder murder or explain the discrepancies. Given the clearly incompetent police autopsy and the observable discrepancies in the official stories.... Yeah, Right. *side eye* It makes about as much sense as the completely illogical cover up in the Kendrick Johnson case.

* I wrote a longer version of this on Tumblr, but the short form is: If you need Trigger Warnings and/or cut posts on things I am not properly marking, PM me and I'll try to remember and fix it. I am not perfect, especially when I am as tired and ill as I currently am. I would much rather someone toss me a reminder than for me to be triggering people. I do forget things; I do slip up. I will not take offense and likely, if it is upsetting you it will upset someone else and your PM is helping that other person tor persons.
