About a year after my son was killed,
0:04
I was heartbroken and at a loss,
0:07
not knowing if I ever find out what
0:09
happened. I
0:12
didn't know where to turn, so I took
0:14
to Facebook. Life. Okay,
0:20
Facebook, I'm gonna try this again. Like I was
0:22
saying, you know, when our son
0:24
was killed, it is something that
0:26
devastated our whole family. But
0:29
to add insult to injury, we
0:33
are in a big battle with
0:36
the city of Chicago, day
0:38
after day trying
0:40
to find out what happened
0:42
to him, and there are so
0:45
many discrepancies in his
0:47
case. We
0:50
are the average black
0:52
family trying to fight against
0:55
a huge city, and
0:59
everywhere we talked, we're here
1:01
the doors getting slammed in our face. I
1:07
can't say whether or not
1:10
something happened while he was with the
1:12
police, but
1:14
I know that they have continuously
1:18
denied our request for
1:21
videos and nine want one calls that
1:25
depict the final moments of my son. It's
1:29
painful. You feel
1:32
the desperation in your heart because you
1:34
want answers to what happened to your child. Everybody
1:38
tells you that the
1:40
city of Chicago is doing what they can, but
1:44
what I see is that they're
1:46
fighting every step of the way. They
1:52
want you to stop fighting. They
1:54
want you to give up. They want you just to accept
1:57
that your child is dead and just move
1:59
on. I can't can't do
2:01
it. He doesn't deserve it. He
2:05
doesn't deserve what happened to him.
2:10
So I can't just give up. With
2:14
everything within me, my
2:16
last breath, I keep fighting for
2:18
him because he can't do it anymore.
2:25
Raise my heart. No
2:27
matter how long it takes, I
2:29
will not stop fighting for Corney. Here
2:37
my son Courtney's story, and follow
2:39
my fight for justice and truth.
