The Herald Leader

My husband has set up the blog that now makes it so easy to get to.  Today I spoke with the Herald Leader.  At this point I am fighting to get the story in the newspaper.  

Before I had no doubt...even though my mom did.  Now I really don't know what's going to happen.  I feel like if the story not run, then the Kirklands, the police and the state win.  I trusted the guy who was going to do the story ... now he acts like it just won't be done at all.  Even though he assured me before that it would be ... and I in turn assured my mom.  

But I refuse to give up.

Ms. M. Davis, who is also a reporter said something to me today that was so powerful.  She lost her brother last week.  She's also been trying to help me get the story out.  But she said, "I understand where you are.  You are still fighting for our brother, I no longer have to fight for mine."  That's the whole thing in a nut shell.  I have to FIGHT for my little brother.

The newspaper doesn't care, the state doesn't care, the police don't care ... it seems like NOONE cares.  So, at this point I'll be his voice and continue to fight.

Positive Outlook

Hello Everyone. The WGO staff here posting an update about Corey. The last letter received from Corey was very promising. Corey is in good spirits about his situation. Have things changed? No. But Corey, most certainly has. He has been attending bible studies while in prison and is even more certain that things will work out for the good. He is still striving to attain his GED so that he may do Architecture once he is released. He is hopeful that his innocence will be proven.

Via his last letter, Corey personally wants to let those who read the blog know that all is well and that he thanks everyone for their support and prayers.

Please don't forget the plight of Corey Wayne Jackson.
