Who Killed Dana Seawright? Ask the Phoenix FBI...


Federal Courthouse, Phoenix
April 20, 2012

Tomorrow will be the two year anniversary of the murder of Dana Seawright. The Phoenix FBI, to date, has refused to investigate his homicide as a hate crime, a gang crime, or a matter of public corruption; they didn't even have the decency to call his mother and follow-up after she went in person to beg them to open his case, nor will they provide her with a rationale for not doing so. So I am left to wonder: do they hate prisoners, blacks, Mexicans, or queers? Why does solving his murder not matter to them? All I can say at this point is that they haven't heard the last from us...
