      Meet Rell Lewis. 31 year old Black man who was hit by a pickup truck and killed while being a Good Samaritan for trying to remove dangerous debris from the road. His death was devastating. What the Trump supporter who killed him said on Snapchat is as appalling as it gets...pic.twitter.com/K8Rfb5QZyu

          “His life will never be the same.” You know who else’s life will never be the same? The man he killed. Originally one would consider this a fatal accident, but making comments like this after, it makes you wonder if it was intentional. Did he even try to miss hitting the man?

          I agree 100%. Our sheriff released a statement pretty much saying “it’s tragic, sorry for What Matthew said online but technically it’s not illegal so we can’t arrest him” 🙃

          What is this sheriffs name ? What county is this ? I’m horrified. Was an investigation conducted? What was his speed ? Did they check his phone records?

          Sam Craft- Vernon parish, Louisiana. It’s currently still being “”investigated”” but who really knows. The Whole sheriffs dept is crooked and corrupt.

          Wow. I’m glad this is getting out. In my county if a kid is speeding and/or texting and in an accident that results in injury or death, he’s looking at some serious charges. His cavalier attitude is disturbing. I hope the sheriff feels pressure to conduct a thorough investigation

          This culture of closed door, what we in my family call “tabletalk” racism is really what scares me.

          That’s why they hate political correctness. “Sure uncle Pete calls black people the n-word and kept lynching souvenirs from when he was a child, but he bought me a car when I was sixteen and I love him.”
