1 Year Later, The No Snitchers Are Still Winnning

Almost 1 year ago, a girl that attended the school I teach at, Betty Pinkney, is still not solved and the no snitching "policy" of those at the party and those that knew what happened is still in effect.
From a post from last year: Over the weekend, a student from my school was murdered while she attended a party on the northeast side of the Las Vegas Valley.  There has been a lot of talk about the murder- by the students, some teachers and the local newspapers and television stations.
From the LVRJ today: Diana Perry plays back the worst night of her life over and over in her head, wondering "What if? What if?" as she looks at her wristband from the house party. She won't take it off. It proves the nightmare was real.
Mere moments before her 17-year-old girlfriend died in her arms from a stray bullet early Sunday, they were dancing the night away at the party. Then she was kneeling on the floor, holding the hand of Betty "Jay" Pinkney, who was squeezing tight as she convulsed and gasped for air.
Perry's other hand pressed hard on Pinkney's blood-drenched side to try to stop the spreading red.
Pinkney's good friend Amber Robertson felt for her pulse.
"I felt one heartbeat and that was it," a sobbing Robertson said Tuesday. "It was hard. She was my best friend."
Police arrived shortly after.
"I stayed with her until they forced me off," Perry said, chuckling softly as she remembered something. "My wallet is actually at the morgue with her right now. I would call her my gentleman. She'd carry my things."

The sad fact is that someone at the party knew what happened and some kids around the neighborhood, on the northeast side of the Las Vegas valley also know what happened but are refusing to tell the cops.
It would also be nice if the so-called leaders in the Black community would come out and demand people come forward, but they won't.  The so called leaders don't want to piss off their followers who give them good money so they can live their lavish lifestyles.  And the ministers of the Black community are about as weak as can be and are pretty much useless.
So, hopefully, someone this year will come forward and tell the cops who was the coward behind the shooting of Betty Pinkney.  I also hope the media in this town will also write and report on the unsolved murder, as the 1 year anniversary comes closer.
While I hope someone will come forward, I doubt it will happen.
