On the surface, it probably seems that
the recent Bill Cosby verdict and the Emmett Till case are not
connected. But they are bound by a common thread, which is the justice
system of the United States. If our society is finally ready to give
justice after decades of the forced silence of victims, then it's time
for Carolyn Bryant Donham to face justice for what she did to Emmett
Till.
Let me start by saying this is
not a defense of Cosby. I repeat, this is not a defense of Cosby. This
is simply a critical examination of the facts.
I
know many will take offense with what I'm saying. There are going to be a
lot of people who scoff at the idea of an 83-year-old facing prison
time for a crime that was committed many years ago.
But
I wonder how many of those same people celebrated Cosby's conviction,
applauding the guilty verdict as they proudly proclaimed that
"#TIMESUP"?
Well then, the time is up for Bryant too.
