These poor families, my heart breaks for these Mummas . 😢❤🙏🏻🇨🇦
It's always the same story with them

$250 for a death certificate after the fact? That's abuse, I feel for these poor women.
What they did to these families is unimaginable, horrifying!!
Who did this to these families?
They should be arrested and charged!!!!
Everyone thinks they got away but every day of those policies life they have to look in the mirror 🪞 every day because no one gets away because when they get g
Old it comes back to them I know it true because I work for hospital and I seen people before they die ask God to for give them My opinion
If they had the information to put the families on the death certificate they should be able to contact the families.
This is outrageous
The value of human life in Mississippi, is quite like to losing your pet dog. Only the family experience the pain. Mississippi is Mississippi
THERE ARE NO WORDS THAT ANYONE CAN SAY THAT MAKES THIS OK & THEN TO CHARGE THESE POOR FAMILIES FOR A DEATH CERTIFICATE, THE LEAST THEY COULD DO WOULD BE TO HAVE GIVEN THEM WITHOUT QUESTION.
I HOPE THESE FAMILIES CAN FIND SOME SEMBLANCE OF PEACE OUT OF ALL THIS HEARTACHE.
AND MAY THEIR LOVED ONES FINALLY REST IN PEACE.
💙💙🙏🏻💙💙
My Lord, please comfort these families. How horrible. My prayers for these families.
Are we back in the Dark Ages? This is so tragic. Where is the DOJ?
We need the younger generation of attorneys to work closely with the older generation and put an end to this madness.
Every mother, from every continent identifies and can feel her pain. Not knowing where your children are. Is a nightmare. That is heart breaking to any mother. Putting them in a pile of dirt with just hand written numbers. These mothers did not disserve. It's murder and lynching.
The whole Police Dept there needs to be Sued to heck and back! 😤
No mother or father or whoever should have to go through that, ever.. 🥺
Well if the mothers would raise their kids better they wouldn't be in jail or prison.
Unspeakable 😢 I pray for you all you mothers. May justice be served. Their with the Lord 🙏
Im so very sorry for the families of these victims. I have experienced the Mississippi legal system first hand. In my opinion it is one of the most corrupt in this country. Bigotry is rampant there. Completely unacceptable. Bring in the Feds. No one deserves this type of treatment. I pray that you all find peace and recieve the justice that you all deserve. I hope that I NEVER enter the not so great state of Mississippi again.
some people need to be fined and fired.
Yes because they have murderers in the prisons and gotten away with it thegovernment must be involved to
No words for this
So sorry for her loss this is horrible incsnt imagine her pain. God be with her in Jesus name 🙏🏿
MIM - Mississippi Is a Mess!
Sue the county and the cops that the money come from there pockets
Unconscionable! Abhorrent behavior and then to make these poor family members have to now pay money to get the death certificates is beyond belief. Bring in the Federal government to identify every individual who was involved in this corrupt and despicable behavior... including anyone who knew second hand but didn't speak out.
My heart goes out to these families. It's a shame that Jim Crow is still living today.
This is the sad reality when too many conflicting communities live in such close proximity each other.
This is a crime against humanity seriously
Im not suprised ,
My mother almost lost me because of the Mississippi ĥwy patro and Jackson County sheriff.
those Mississippi jails are brutal 😢
I've seen some bad things there
Yeah i here you I spent overnight in one it was like a dungeon my heart go out to these mothers its bad enough they lost their children but not knowing is the worst
lefties.
One was never in jail they ran him over and threw him in a body bag and grave with his id buried with him.
Sad how this was allowed to happen. Yet they will certainly collect the taxes on time, fire the people responsible .
I wonder how many other people are going through this?
Did the families even know they were missing? Had they contacted them recently at all? Were they placed in pauper’s graves?
The mother reported one of the sons missing and called them multiple time asking for news after they identified him and they didn’t tell her and they also had his fingers print on file from prior trouble with the law they reportedly a police detective left a card in a door of a relative but the relative never saw the card
There are over 200 bodies buried there, so there's a lot we don't yet know.
But Jackson police knew these people were dead, knew who they were, knew how to contact the families, & STILL refused to do the minimum & contact the families. These families thought for years their loved one was 'missing'. The one mother contacted Jackson police repeatedly to find out about her missing son & get updates on his case/investigation. Jackson police never told her the truth: that their own cops killed him when they hit him with their police car. And he was dumped like trash, with a number on his grave, while his mother was out searching for him day & night.
The individuals weren't even properly buried. Their bodies were in body bags, dumped in shallow graves & covered over, with a number on a pipe to mark their grave. Buzzards circled overhead because the smell of decaying bodies was so overwhelming.
@@tothelighthouse9843 There's over 600 bodies buried in this mass (serial killer's dumping ground) pauper's grave.
The Captain Of This Department Has Shown Heartless Careless
Lord I ask that you heal these families fully and that they recover from this evil on this wicked earth. Keep these families strong my Lord mentally, physically and spiritually! God needed them for this war that’s about to happen as we are in the last days! I ask that you reveal all that has happened to each and every one of these Men Dear Lord! And that the murdering demons be prosecuted to the highest extent!!!!!!!!! This is pure evil and this organ trafficking needs to stop pronto!
I wouldn't ever trust Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and wherever else down south with my children of color!!😢
I wouldn't trust them either and I live in Georgia. The South's soil is soaked with the blood of racial injustice and violence that has not been redeemed and it still carries the ghosts of those 'sins'. But I'm also torn. One reason these now Republican and old Confederacy states are gerrymandering so hard and working overtime to disenfranchise African-Americans of their voting power is fear. Its an old play book that now has the backing of even the U.S. Supreme Court. They know that with fair voting maps they are done. Some folks like NYT columnist Charles Blow are calling for a reverse black migration to change the demographic dimensions of the old south. A pipe dream really as he's calling for a movement without impetus. Howevrr, I get his point. The South will change when people of color start voting dynamically in tune with their population numbers. Too many still won't register to vote or if registered won't turn out to vote.
Hah they hate you up north too
@@ARhino14 Man, That Not a Nice Thing to Say!! Why All the Hate? We Are All Humans. Hah!! I Think That: Not One Race is Better than the Others!! Who Are You?? Just WOW!! I Don't Like Your Team!! 🤔💔🕊️🖤💩
I imagine there are fields throughout the state of Mississippi that hold the remains of murdered loved ones. Likely all killed at the hands of "Authorities"
How did this even happen. For Godsakes people. This is heartbreaking. I cant even imagine the pain these poor families are going through.
Also I can't get over how they have to pay to get their family member back that is asinine.😮
What do the governor has to say about this. Is he concerned!
Mississippi needs a state of emergency 😢
This is horrible!! My heart goes out to All the family!!!
Evil, just evil to even think of doings. God is going to get em, we just pray about n God is definitely going to get them. This is so sad.
So how did these people die? Were they found together? I’m so lost!
By police
Police abusing their position.
Wait! So the Police killed All of them in JAIL??? That's Terrible and Horrible!! And the Poor Mothers WERE NOT Even Notified!! Terrible Times We Are living Now!! 😨😱😞😢😭💔🕊️🖤🤔
@@LeticiaSarabia-yb8dmpigs have been exactly the same dating back to when they were slavecatchers. The only difference is now you can film them
@@LeticiaSarabia-yb8dm Some were not in jail when murdered by the MIM police. MIM = Mississippi Is a Mess.
You have a great attorney.
He’s just a money chaser.
When we go learn the south is still the south.
I see next to no racism from white people in the south. There's other bad stuff but racism from whites is not happening. Racism from blacks now..yes alot more..
Make your votes count!
ACCOUNTABILITY! ACCOUNTABILITY! ACCOUNTABILITY!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
How are they getting away wirh this? And making the family buy the bodies back and then pay 250 for death certificate?? These oeople need to be reimbursed and reparations for their trauma . Absolutley disgusting . Accountability needs to be held
Why is this not gaining more coverage this should be made global!!!!
That place needs to closed down!
When was the last time he was home with Family ?
Before jail lol
they weren't in jail
Every one involved should go prison for at least 5 years.
25 yrs
Mississippi 🔥 Mississippi Burning
The state act like criminals
Is this a matter of basic incompetence or a matter of "Godless Fundie neckbeard dirt" ?(Sorry about the redundancy.)
I can't believe anyone would choose to live in Mississippi.
Please dont be ignorant most people who live in Mississippi didnt choose to live there they were born there generation after generation please use common sense before you comment as if native born Mississippiians had a choice to be born somewhere else
@@JePe-on4ff yeah and you were born with these wonderful things called legs. If someone from Guatemala can walk to Texas for a better life I guarantee you someone in Mississippi can. There's absolutely no reason for anybody to be in Alabama Mississippi or Baltimore.
@@amelliamendel2227 please don't comment anymore and relearn comprehension and common sense you are an embarrassment to the human race shame on you
@@amelliamendel2227but did those folks really walk or were they brought here free of charge?
@@ashasun6620People have been crossing to and from the Americas for hundred of thousand of years. Humans evolved as persistent hunters, yeah people can really walk it.
How in the world did it take so long to know this
Welcome to America! Smh!
We as the people see this 💙 and stand here
To have to pay to get your son's body back after they stole him from you. Do the Americans have no morals?
Wonder if the bodies were used to harvest organs?
That’s Mississippi
Omg
Everyone should call that police department everyday and let them know they are criminals and disgusting.
Why is it wrong to call the police pigs??
I've always noticed people that call police pigs or have hate for them is totally because they live on the wrong side of the law. I've never had a problem with them, in fact wish there were more of them. These people that have no use for them are always the first to call them.
It'll hurt their feelings they might force them to hit you like a preschooler would but with grown man power
@@jackjines3461 hmm thats a very myopic viewpoint.
@@jackjines3461lmao. Well you haven't seen much.
@@jackjines3461police report is needed that’s why
Flaw enforcement has no honor
Boy Mississippi still burnin.
I hate it here.
Wow
😔🙏🏽
They’re gonna owe Billions if not Trillions to pay back those families for the atrocities they’ve done - even if no amount will truly bring them back, at least the guilty will finally pay up for their crimes against morality & goodness in itself. What they did, I’m not sure how forgivable it is, if at all-
Someone is in deep water... Getting fired
$250 for a Death Certificate, Now it's gonna Cost That City Police Department $250 Million Dollars to pay the Family's.
A sin and a shame.
They want the punishment to be so bad you want come back 😢 when first arrested every one goes to drunk tank till bond or see judge for general population I've seen 10 men helt in 8 x 10 holding 😢 it no better in other places
They all in on it law enforcement
MIM - Mississippi Is a Mess!
That's America fir you!
This sounds like modern-day murder...i wouldn't belive cause of death, nothing. Come on now, pay for what...
Is it the 1960's?
Obviously they been doing this for centuries the question yall should be asking is how many missing ppl was actually murdered by the police
Shameful
The families need to sue the state
😢😢😢😢YOU KNOW THAT'S A SHAME 🙏🙏🙏
God bless her. This is so disgusting Mississippi PD
Nobody cares about anybody anymore until it happens to their family member sad
Jackson Mississippi is poor😮
Benjamin Crump HAD to be here for this one. He’s just a paper chaser. He really don’t care. It’s about the money to him.
😢🤦🏻
The victims were in jail, and then they were buried?
some were homicide victims of the police department, this is the closest to those movie scenes of a cover up, only this is real, also yes some are most likely inmates but probably not died of natural causes if they heartlessly put them on unmarked grave
Nope. From what I know, the son of the shorter lady was hit by a cop car and they made the prisoners bury him.
I demand the FBI to jail the Police officers. I am the Buddha. Cynthie the America Indian, sovereign ne-gro Buddha
…and “threw him out like trash”
Isn’t that what they did when they completely cut them off after sentencing?? 🤔 hmm…yup!!
the police need justice
American fascism
Weird they didn’t give af when they were in Prison!🤨 Or they’d know !! Seems like a money grab. These people could care less to stay in touch, but someone said “hey this burial was ‘wrong’, you should sue!”…Now here we are. Almost comical how people will use death for a money grab.
They weren’t in prison. The mother says she put out a missing report and the police kept telling her they had no info only to find out he was hit by one of the cops and tossed back there in a body bag with his id on him.
@@ashasun6620 what he’s saying is he thinks people of color don’t have feelings or care for their loved ones as much as white people
no doubt they want taxpayers to make them millionaires
Yes they should but it should come out of the pension fund from the police and city government
How about holding people accountable for their actions ?!
@@booklover6403
but it wont...as a resident struggling to survive i hate these opportunists and gold diggers who have no regard for taxpayers...no doubt they are on welfare....
@@GaGurrl82
i'm all for that as long as its not a lottery winning check coming with it
George Floyds family would never wish that his death didnt happen...they are living a life of luxury with mansions and fast cars..
@@sundial-el3nt there children died and they were never told even after they were reported missing and they were buried in potter graves with out being notified
250 dollars is cheap. You’re lucky that’s all you’re charged.
Lucky? Your missing the point here
Call a waaahbulance. You didn't care about your sons until you were told you could get rich from a lawsuit. Then you suddenly "cared".
are you one of the friends/families of the pigs that buried him in an unmarked grave?
Is this coming from just you?
For months, Bettersten Wade called the police in Jackson, Miss., desperate for any update or sign that detectives were making progress in tracking down Dexter, her 37-year-old son who left their home one day in March and vanished.
Each conversation ended in frustration. They never seemed any closer to finding him, she said.
And yet, records show that investigators for the Jackson Police Department knew exactly where Dexter Wade was. An off-duty police officer driving an S.U.V. had struck and killed him on the same day that his mother last saw him, according to officials and coroner’s records. A deputy coroner said he was identified by a bottle of prescription medication he was carrying and through fingerprints.
Ms. Wade kept searching for more than five months, unaware that her son had been buried behind the local jail, in a ragged cemetery for the poor and unclaimed where graves are marked by small, numbered signs poking out of the dirt.
“All that time, they knew where he’s at,” Ms. Wade said of the Jackson police in a recent interview. “They knew who he was.”
Officials in Jackson, a city of 150,000, have described Mr. Wade’s burial and the long delay in informing his mother of his death as regrettable but honest mistakes, a matter of miscommunication within an overburdened police department.
But Ms. Wade was not inclined to give the police the benefit of the doubt. Four years ago, three officers had been charged with murder after they pulled her brother from his car and slammed him to the ground.
Ms. Wade wanted her son removed from the unmarked pauper’s grave. She wanted to be there when it happened, praying over his remains as they were raised from the dirt. And she wanted answers - from an independent autopsy and, she hoped, an investigation into her son’s death and how it was handled by the police.
“You can’t write it off as a mistake, you can’t write it off as a miscommunication,” Ms. Wade said. “I don’t exactly know why they did it. That’s what I want to find out.”
@@victorvaca7429 Yes. Unlike Marxists and other deranged individuals, I don't have multiple personalities. I don't need them.
Because I'm in touch with reality.
@@bluesclues132 Nope. Just a rational person seeing reality as it is.
Your sons should have made better life choices
..... what crime did they commit? they died on the street or were killed and taken to the morgue.
Matthew Cornelison, you are one absolutely ignorant individual.
Your dad should have made better choices and put you on a sock, towel or the sheets.
What crime were they convicted with? What procedures did the cops follow?
Now why would JPD do the work and get to the bottom of this when they are the killers themselves? 🙄
They're not going to notify no families or get to the truth what is bull crap
