It’s now been 75 days since a jailed white man died because black jailers deprived him of water and food. Gary “Bubba” Blair lost about 100lbs in less than 6 months. He wasn’t allowed to shower for almost a month. He was forced to drink what water he could find in the toilet. He was jailed for a non-violent offense, and the judge ordered him to be transported to a mental health facility. But that never happened. He wrote letters, begging for help. “No help for a white man,” he wrote. He was right: no help arrived. He was found dead on the feces covered floor of his jail cell. The ME listed his death as “homicide.” 6 black employees at South Carolina’s Chesterfield Detention Center were fired. That’s it. No arrests. No charges. No justice. No media outrage. If 6 white jailers had starved and dehydrated a black man to death, the country would be on fire. Justice for Bubba.
