Grief Turned to Advocacy After Acquittal
from Charleston News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A grieving mother and father speak out after their 14-year-old son Cyrus was shot in the back and killed near Parklane Road — a tragedy that’s now compounded by the acquittal of the shooter, Rick Chow, despite a history of violent altercations with Black customers that were never presented in court. Cyrus’s mother, now channeling her grief into a powerful movement to protect Black and brown children, grapples with doubters who question her son’s innocence — even as her community rallies behind her with fundraisers, merchandise, and a memorial bench. She’s weighing legal and grassroots action to prevent future losses, while urging everyone to stand together against injustice. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
