I can't believe this... My heart hurts to know this. I met jimmy in middle school... This might sound lame but I guess you can say he was my boyfriend. We eventually broke up but we later remained good friends. If you know jimmy you know that he was gifted with brilliance.... At least I always thought. But like many of us that were brought up in the hood. Stars seem to be too far to be reached so our dreams don't go much far. I'm just really really sad about this. I was actually searching for him online to ask him how he was doing and tell him about my life. I would always tell him about Christ my Lord and Saviour. I got married one week before his death. It hurts my soul. God bless his family.

They took u away from us and i hope in time they regret what they did that way it hurts them to be locked behind bars .
