• 0:00
  Hello and welcome back to my podcast spending
• 0:02
  time with dr. Christina We're still in season
• 0:05
  6 but with a bonus episode and a wrap -up commentary
• 0:09
  on the Nolan Wells case during these last couple
• 0:13
  of weeks even more information has come out and
• 0:16
  We're especially talking about this because season
• 0:18
  6 was about human rights human rights with the
• 0:23
  subtopic of civil rights humanity justice and
• 0:26
  dignity All of these elements make a civil society.
• 0:32
  Now, as I mentioned in the last couple of weeks,
• 0:34
  more evidence has come out with Nolan Wells and
• 0:37
  more clarity about what has been going on with
• 0:42
  getting justice for this young man. And I say
• 0:45
  justice not just because of what circumstantial
• 0:49
  evidence has shown and other evidence that has
• 0:51
  come forward, but this state has a history. of
• 0:57
  just not treating people of color very well.
• 1:00
  And we think back as far as even Emmett Till.
• 1:05
  However, again, with circumstantial evidence
• 1:10
  and evidence that's been presented, there is
• 1:14
  a need for his family to not just get answers,
• 1:18
  but to get justice. My prayer is that they will
• 1:21
  get it. And it seems that we're getting closer
• 1:25
  and closer to the truth. We can think about also
• 1:29
  hopefully we'll have answers concerning the missing
• 1:32
  body parts. At one point, I think it was said
• 1:35
  that it was a lung, but we see that it was the
• 1:37
  throat, parts of the throat were missing. And
• 1:41
  this was held by the examiner, the first examiner
• 1:46
  that was reviewing his body for the autopsy.
• 1:49
  There's many things that need to be answered
• 1:52
  for this family and I'm hopeful that more people
• 1:56
  will come forward and tell the truth and tell
• 2:01
  what happened because as these pictures show,
• 2:04
  there's a difference in time frames where they
• 2:07
  said he was at and where he was supposed to be
• 2:11
  at. There's so much going on that needs to be
• 2:16
  uncovered. And it really does not look like a
• 2:22
  situation of an accident. And what's important
• 2:26
  to know, again, is when we think about this case
• 2:29
  in respects to human rights, human rights law,
• 2:31
  civil rights, civil rights law, this young man
• 2:34
  deserves dignity. He deserves justice. He deserves
• 2:40
  fairness. And that is in the judicial system.
• 2:45
  His family deserves this and I'm hopeful again
• 2:49
  that people will come forward and As it's been
• 2:54
  mentioned before in a lot of our cases that have
• 2:57
  been in the news that have victimized African
• 3:00
  Americans When they have been slaughtered or
• 3:04
  their lives just taken from them There needs
• 3:09
  to be fairness there needs to be accountability
• 3:16
  Hopefully we will see this with Nolan Wells because
• 3:19
  this was an innocent young man Talented young
• 3:22
  man did not have record anything threatening
• 3:26
  about him was just out having fun with what he
• 3:31
  thought were his friends and There's a lot to
• 3:36
  be said about that you know because sometimes
• 3:39
  when we're out and about and We're having a good
• 3:43
  time sometimes we forget about the risk and the
• 3:48
  dangers, the drinking, the partying, and in thinking,
• 3:54
  especially when we're young, that there's no
• 3:59
  dangers. However, when we think about this case
• 4:04
  in particular, all we can do is hope for the
• 4:07
  best and hope for everyone that knows something
• 4:12
  will come forward. Hope that the death threats
• 4:16
  will stop against Benjamin Crump, Reverend Al
• 4:21
  Sharpton, the families and anybody speaking up.
• 4:26
  Let there be justice for all and let this young
• 4:30
  man rest in peace because he certainly was taken
• 4:35
  too soon in any manner that it happened. A lot
• 4:39
  to think about especially again. human rights,
• 4:42
  civil rights. We want to see fairness, justice,
• 4:45
  and a civil society. And it's for all, not for
• 4:48
  just some, but for all. So I want to thank you
• 4:51
  all for joining me on this bonus episode, as
• 4:53
  brief as it has been, just to wrap up a bit with
• 4:56
  Nolan Wells. And I wish you all a good week.
