WE WE BELIEVE THAT THERE’S SOMETHING THAT CAN HAPPEN DIFFERENTLY HERE, THAT THE DIFFERENT WORLD IS POSSIBLE AND A DIFFERENT WALKER COUNTY IS POSSIBLE. THAT WAS THE MESSAGE FROM PROTESTERS LAST WEEKEND FOLLOWING THE DEATH OF A WALKER COUNTY INMATE. ANTHONY MITCHELL SPENT ALMOST TWO WEEKS IN THE COUNTY JAIL UNTIL HE DIED AT A NEARBY HOSPITAL. NOW THE CAUSE OF DEATH IS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION. CALLS FOR JUSTICE CONTINUED TONIGHT DURING A VIGIL. �������� 13 CHIP SCARBOROUGH SPOKE TO THOSE WHO KNEW TONY MITCHELL, WHO SAY THEY’RE NOT BACKING DOWN. PEOPLE LINED UP SIDE BY SIDE IN FRONT OF THE WALKER COUNTY JAIL TO PAY TRIBUTE TO TONY MITCHELL. HE DIED LATE LAST MONTH AFTER SPENDING NEARLY TWO WEEKS IN THE JAIL. IT’S HARDEST FOR HIS CLOSER FRIENDS AND THAT’S TO I FEEL WORSE FOR AND HIS FAMILY. SO I COUNTED ROUGHLY 70 TO 75 PEOPLE TAKING PART IN THE CANDLELIGHT VIGIL ON SATURDAY EVENING. THEY TELL ME THEY’RE GOING TO KEEP PUSHING FORWARD FOR ANSWERS AS LONG AS IT TAKES TO FIND OUT EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED HERE. GOOD HEARTED GUY. I MEAN, HE WASN’T TRYING TO EVER, YOU KNOW, GO OUT OF HIS WAY TO HARM ANYONE. HE WAS JUST, YOU KNOW, FUN OLD GUY. VIDEO TAKEN ON JANUARY 25TH SHOWS WHAT APPEARS TO BE THE LIFELESS BODY OF TONY MITCHELL BEING MOVED. HIS BODY TEMPERATURE IS SAID TO HAVE BEEN JUST 72 DEGREES AT THE TIME OF HIS DEATH. MITCHELL WAS IN JAIL AFTER AUTHORITIES SAY HE SHOT AT THEM DURING A WELFARE CHECK ON JANUARY 12. WE WANT THEM TO KNOW THAT THIS IS THE LAST TIME THAT THERE’S GOING TO BE YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE SILENT. AT THE SAME TIME, KEEPING THEIR MESSAGE PEACEFUL BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY KNOW IT’S WHAT TONY MITCHELL WOULD HAVE WANTED, BECAUSE WE FEEL LIKE WE’RE NOT GOING TO GET ANY MESSAGE ACROSS IF WE’RE IF WE’RE BEING OUT HERE VIOLENT OR THREATENING OR, YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO REMAIN PEACEFUL BECAUSE TONY WAS A PEACEFUL GUY AND THEY SAY THEY PLAN TO MAINTAIN PEACE AS THEY SEEK JUSTICE. THE FBI IS NOW LOOKING INTO EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED INSIDE OF THE JAIL IN WALKER COUNTY, CHIP
