Justice for Sophia Kitchens

I’m not too sure if everyone has seen how the hospital and Richmond County Sheriff’s Office has treated my mother-in-law, but it’s quite sickening.

Sophia Kitchens, a loving mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, was shot in her face April 13th. She is suffering an open wound on her face with a bullet stuck in her nose. She also has a brain clot, as well as missing teeth, blurred vision, and she is not able to eat or feed herself. She was only in the hospital for 3 days before they sent her off to Charles B. Webster Detention Center. Still in her wheelchair, still unable to stand or walk. She has a hole in her face and a blood clot in her brain and they just sent her to jail like this. The hospital would not give us any contact up until the day before she was discharged. They never asked for emergency contacts and wouldn’t give us any updates when we called. They were also discussing the surgeries Sophia needed a day before she was sent in this condition to jail.

We are please asking everyone to help as much as possible with lawyer fees and hospital bills. We want justice for our mother, sister, daughter, grandmother. Sophia does not deserve this negligence or injustice. She has family that is praying non-stop and fighting as hard as we can to get her where she needs to be.
