Jesus is the cousin of one of my co-workers. His friend all called him Chewy. They were musicians. These guys just innocently stopped to help this guy thinking he had been in an accident and he shot the good samaritans. :confused:

My friend Leni (Short for Arleni) was very close to her cousin. He sang at her wedding just a few months ago and Chewy's sister was one of her bridesmaids. Chewy's dad was the minister at the wedding.
 
That is so sad. My thoughts and prayres go out to these families
 
Stories like this make me infuriated! (sp?):mad: :mad: :( This is why so many people don't help! You never know when you are dealing with a lunatic! My hubby helps almost everyone but will often pass on by if they look shady, especially when he has his family with him. This is sad!:cry: My husband doesn't like turning anyone down when it comes to help but when it comes to his family he always puts us first!
I will pray for this family!
 
Prayers going up... This is one crazy world we live in!
 
Our prayers are with the family. It's sad that you just can't help people.
 
Let's all pray that God has comfortors with these families right now... and pray that in some way, even through this insanity, God may be glorified.

The news is actually suggesting that you call 911 when someone needs assistance rather than trying to help. Thanks for all your prayers everyone. These young men were special and I hope the police officer and other wounded man will be o.k. It's possible that the officer may lose the use of one eye.

I'll be in prayer.
