Thread Name: BS: The Jena 6 Controversy
Subject: RE: BS: The Jena 6 Controversy
Q, I assume that you are referring to the link I posted above. The website is not a "blog"--it is the home of Friends of Justice--it is a criminal justice reform organization, and the group that the families of the Jena 6 turned for assistance when the legal system failed them.

Rev. Alan Bean, a Baptist minister, heads the organization, and went to Jena to observe the trial, to investigate the situation, and to assemble resources. What you read there is the result of on the scene investigation , interviews with witnesses, examination of police records, and an eye witness reporting of the events. It is highly credible.
