Blog on the death of Tyrin Williams

[freefall1986]

good read SEE THE BLOG: http://rollingdownhwy83.blogspot.com/2016/04/madness.html

The life of a black male teenager in North St. Louis comes pretty cheap, just another statistic. Twenty one year old Tyrin Williams’ lifeless body was dumped, like discarded trash, Monday afternoon in the middle of a vacant city lot, riddled with three bullet holes, shot execution style.
Williams, due to one shining moment in a short life filled with dead ends – became a St. Louis street basketball legend. At 5'9", he made for an unlikely court wizard, but make no mistake, Williams was a baller of the finest kind.

Great read, and a sad deal for sure.

It is sad, but kids must help themselves in some cases before anyone else can help them. It really makes you appreciate Terrell Ramey and some of the other guys in St Louis that run basketball hoops programs that save many more kids like Tyrin.

Very true, but can we do more?
