WE NEED YOU THERE.
On September 8th at 9:00 AM, the victims and families affected by the shooting at Midtown Auto Body on March 30, 2023 will once again stand in a courtroom and wait for justice.
For more than three years, we have waited.
We have waited for answers.
We have waited for progress.
We have waited for accountability.
And we are tired of waiting in silence.
I know what it feels like to have your life changed in an instant. I know what it feels like to carry the fear, pain, and memories of that day long after the headlines have disappeared. But I also know something else:
We are not alone.
We need as many people as possible to come to the Loudon County Courthouse and fill that courtroom—not to interfere with the judicial process, not to cause a disturbance, and not to tell the judge what decision to make.
We are there to show that people are watching.
We are there to stand beside the victims.
We are there to let them know that their lives matter, their pain matters, and their voices have not been forgotten.
When a courtroom is filled with people who care, it sends a
powerful message: This community has not forgotten what happened.
I am asking everyone who can be there to please come.
Bring your family. Bring your friends. Bring your coworkers. Bring your neighbors. If you believe victims deserve to be heard and that justice deserves our attention, please stand with us.
📍 Loudon County Courthouse
📅 September 8, 2026
⏰ 9:00 AM
Please arrive early, dress respectfully, and remember that this is a courtroom. We are there peacefully and respectfully to support the victims and their families.
Three years is a long time to wait for justice.
We have waited long enough to stand alone.
Now we need our community to stand with us.
PLEASE SHARE THIS. PLEASE SHOW UP. PLEASE STAND WITH THE VICTIMS.
