I wonder have any of you all heard of this case? It's kinda wild, but the most disturbing thing is that one of the victims was a Black girl. Apparently this girl changed her mind the day of the trip and didn't want to go and her mother talked her into giving it a try. This is Oklahoma in the 70's and this Black mother thought it wise to send her Black child to be the only Black kid on a scouting trip in the middle of nowhere. Even had this not happened the first night, there is no telling what those other white girls would put her through. Apparently, the girl's mother said she could call home and she would get picked up, but the camp director wouldn't let her call home. It could be conjecture but knowing how they treat our kids, would it surprise anyone? I'm still bugging on this. Oklahoma is an openly racist place even to this day. I just can't imagine what this poor girl's mother was thinking...also of note: the deceased girl's father may or may not have been a Tulsa police officer...which would possibly answer the level of delusion her parents were under. Messed up tho...
