Walk against violence in downtown Saturday

Published 12:22 pm Friday, May 14, 2010

Nearly five months after her son Terry Tamal Robinson was stabbed to death, Lisa King will join a group of people who will walk Saturday in the Community Oriented Stop the Violence Rally and March in downtown Vicksburg.

Terry, a 16-year-old Warren Central High School ninth-grader, died New Year’s Eve from a wound to the abdomen. He was around the corner from his home at 240 Tully St. in Waltersville Estates.

Terry’s last words to his mother just before leaving their home had been, “I’ll be right back, Mama,” said King. “My baby never came back. He’s never coming back.”
