Patricia Jessamy Finally Issues A Statement About The Zach Sowers Case

20 comments

July 24, 2:18 PM

by Adam Meister, Baltimore Politics Examiner

I will give details about the fire Margaret Burns news conference in another post. There were over 60 supporters there and every TV station was there so you will get to see highlights on the news.

I assume the media attention forced Jessamy to issue this press release.

It is clear that the Jessamy's office knows they are in the wrong and so they will continue to try and ignore everything and blame everyone else. They still think that this is going away. It is not.

For more info: Read the Patricia Jessamy web page to see what she care$ about.
