Jessica Archer, Director of FORGE, the Florida Organization For Gender Equality, rejoins us unexpectedly this week to talk about what was known about the circumstances surrounding the murder of Terrianne Summers, and how the police were responding. Jennifer, who is also the Director of media, education and outreach with Equality Florida, worked closely with Terrianne, and is closely involved in the community response to this terrible tragedy.
Please write to Jacksonville Sheriff Nat Glover at 6876hsr@jaxsheriff.com. Respectfully insist on a thorough investigation leading to the incarceration of the person responsible for this heinous - and obviously premeditated - crime. Let him know that this case is being watched around the country and that Terrianne's community will not rest until justice is met. For more information, write to Jessica at forgefl@mindspring.com |
