Welcome to

A group of mothers whose children were killed traveled to the state Capitol today to seek legislation to keep the identities of witnesses to felonies out of public records. The mothers say the identification keeps witnesses from coming forward. Myrna Williams-Cammon says her son was killed because people though he had talked to police.

“Evidently some young man killed somebody. they thought he was a witness to it. He went and talked to police and said he didn’t see anything. \Maybe three or four weeks later, he got killed in his backyards on a Saturday afternoon in broad open daylight.  And people saw this crime, people was telling us what happened, but they would not tell police what happened” says Williams-Cammon,

While witnesses gave testimony, today, a vote on the legislation was postponed. The bill is opposed by the First Amendment Foundation, which says it is overly broad.
