Title: Seeking Justice and Support for Kendrick’s Family

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Supporter’s

It is with a heavy heart that I share the tragic loss of my cousin, Kendrick, who recently passed away under heartbreaking circumstances while in jail in West Memphis, Arkansas. Kendrick was just 40 years old, and his death has left our family in deep sorrow and searching for answers.

Background:
Kendrick was a vibrant, loving individual who touched the lives of everyone around him. He leaves behind a young son and daughter. A couple of months ago, I had the opportunity to hang out and talk with him, and those moments are now precious memories that I will cherish forever. Unfortunately, Kendrick’s life was cut short in a place where he should have been kept safe. He died by suicide in jail, and we are left with many unanswered questions about the circumstances that led to his death.

Purpose:
We are seeking your support to help cover the costs of legal fees and an independent investigation into Kendrick’s death. Our goal is to ensure that all proper protocols were followed and to seek justice if there were any violations of his rights or negligence by the jail authorities. Additionally, we hope to raise awareness about the conditions that inmates face and to advocate for better mental health support within the prison system.

How Funds Will Be Used:
The funds raised will be used for:

• Legal fees to hire an experienced attorney who specializes in civil rights and wrongful death cases.
• Costs associated with an independent investigation, including hiring a private investigator to gather evidence and interview witnesses.
• Expenses related to obtaining records, such as incarceration records, medical records, and surveillance footage.
• Support for Kendrick’s immediate family during this difficult time, including counseling services and memorial costs.

Closing:
We believe that every life matters, and Kendrick’s life deserves justice. Your generous contributions will not only help us uncover the truth but also bring some measure of peace to our grieving family. Any amount you can donate will make a significant difference and will be deeply appreciated.

Thank you for your support, prayers, and kindness during this incredibly challenging time. Together, we can ensure that Kendrick’s story is heard and that steps are taken to prevent similar tragedies in the future.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Courtney Thomas
