Alexis Goggins, 7, shot 6 times protecting her mother

[crickett]

Little Alexis Goggins loved her mother very much. So, when her mother, Selietha Parker, was shot in the head and arm by her ex-boyfriend, Calvin Tillie, she threw herself over her mother to protect her.
This brave little angel was shot 6 times while protecting her mother and survived. There is a special place in Heaven for her.
And a special place in Hell reserved for this heartless prick.

By the way, that blog spot above is REALLY interesting. It showcases a LOT of news (like the type seen on DD) that does NOT generate the national attention that it should.

I just wanted to get this update added, with the picture of the little girl. The article also gives some good news about the generosity of the public as well as commenting on the small mindness of others.

According to this article (citing 2 911 calls) police dispatch waited 4 minutes BEFORE dispatching an officer, telling one caller that they had NO car to send!

I remember this story from last year, when I hadn't been at DD very long. Mainly I remember it because that's where I met the wonderful, gorgeous, badass Athena. I think we'll call that debate a draw. ;)
