BOBBY MARTIN JR. WHO DIED. WAS IN A DANGEROUS CRIMINAL BUSINESS AS A DRUG TRAFFICKER ! I BELIEVE THAT HIS FAMILY GOT JUSTICE AND THAT'S THE WAY THE LAW WORKS...BUT USUALLY THE VICTIM IS AN INNOCENT PERSON THAT ALL FEELS SORRY FOR. IN THIS CASE I FEEL DRUG DEALERS ARE THE FILTH OF THE EARTH AND THE ONLY THING FOR ME HERE THAT IS GOOD IS THAT THE PROPER JUSTICE AND SENTENCE WAS GIVEN. I FEEL SORRY FOR HIS MOTHER AND THEIR FAMILY FOR THEIR LOSS BUT MAYBE AN INTERVENTION FOR HIS DRUG DEALINGS WAS IN ORDER......I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING FOR THE ACCUSED ....EVAN POLCHIES....I THINK THE 12 PLUS YEAR SENTENCE IS SUFFICIENT!.....HERE IS THE RUNDOWN OF THE ARREST AND
