GENARLOW WILSON Case: A Review
We are very happy and glad, even joyous to know Genarlow Wilson has been able to secure his release from prison. We wish Wilson and his family much success in the future. We believe he will be a success in life. Prior to his unfortunate incarceration he was headed in that direction as a popular student, scholastic achiever and outstanding athlete.
We have a few thought provoking questions in relation to this calamitous travesty of justice.
Firstly we’d like to know why the young female, age 15, was not charged along with Wilson for this infraction? We believe whenever possible young people should be informed about sexual activity taking the necessary precaution since there are so many things can happen to inexperienced young folk who “mess around” sexually. heck things can happen to experienced adults who are sexually active. We think given the circumstances our young people are daily engaging in a form of sexual activity that many of their parents, if they admit performing the act at all, once reserved for long term intimate relationships. Many of today’s teens are often participating in this behavior as regularly as dogs sniffing each other’s rear ends as a canine greeting.
The answer to our question can probably be found somewhere among the customs of protecting females, promoting males to more mature than they are and antiquated laws.
Our second question deals with Justice Harold Melton , a jurist appointed to the court by Governor Sonny Purdue in 2005. Melton states in his official Georgia Supreme Court biography following claims:
“…previously served as a Volunteer Leader of Young Life Ministries for 11 years, is currently a Board Member of Atlanta Youth Academies and the Director of Teen Ministry at Southwest Christian Fellowship Church.
A native of Washington, D.C., Justice Melton grew up in East Point and Marietta. He currently resides in Atlanta with his wife, Kimberly, and their three children.“
We are hard pressed to understand with his background and life experience and those stated claims of acquaintance with young people, in particular we’ve noted he has children of his own. It’s even difficult to believe he’s spent 11 years working with young people in church. We would like to know simply:
HOW COULD YOU Judge Melton POSSIBLY JOIN IN THE DISSENTING OPINION IN THIS LEGAL MATTER?
We understand you’re the new kid on the court. The man with the least tenure on the high court. We can not understand the purpose of your intent nor can we find any logical reason why you would be opposed to Genarlow Wilson’s release in part, as the dissenting opinion written by Justice George Carley states or in whole. In fact we’ll go so far as to say with credentials like yours the only way ti would be possible for you to join in an opposing view on this issue would be if Justices Hines and Carley went real old school on you by holding a big pump-action rifle to your head threatening to shoot you if you joined with the majority opinion. Even then we don;’t believe you should acquiesce to their demands. Here’s a thought: maybe you aligned yourself with them to help them save face. If you are the lone Negro among the dissenting members of the panel they look less cold hearted, less callous. You come out smelling like yesterday’s garbage because you were being compassionate in support of what is truly evil and wrong.
Hey ya Honah! We think it’s a good thing you’re appointed rather than elected. We think you’d probably have to steal the election in order to keep your job.
