MK and I are devastated to learn of the tragic passing of Darren and Cindy Bailey’s son Zachary, daughter-in-law Kelsey, and their two young children Vada Rose and Samuel.
Once this all ends, I believe there will be people of good faith who will review what the Commission has recorded and will demand answers and accountability.
Our prayers and deep condolences are with the Baileys in this time of grief. May the memories of their loved ones be a blessing.
I cannot imagine losing a child, losing two grandchildren, and what they must be going through. This is not a time for politics.
History will judge us by where we choose to stand right now, today. Future generations will ask: ‘What did we do when fellow human beings faced persecution? When our rights were being abridged? When our Constitution was under attack?’
