This is something that never should have happened. This young man was so beloved throughout the county and never hurt a soul. He was waiting for that tow truck to get there when Raja drove up and blocked his driver side door with his car. This was a man in an unmarked car, plain clothes, and we don’t even know whether he id’d himself as a police officer before he decided to shoot Corey Jones. It is said Corey’s phone was still turned on to the tow company or someone, so hopefully someone heard what transpired in those dark early morning hours when there was no one else around except the two of them. I don’t know who the hundreds of witnesses are unless they were passing motorists, maybe some from the hotel who might have been outside on balconies, etc. I hope the grand jury will not automatically not indict because Raja had been a policeman at the time he shot this peace loving young musician and housing authority worker to death.
