While this ordeal will never be over for Scotty Joe’s mother Martha and his brother Lum, after three long years, now that all three of his killers have been convicted, hopefully their family can find some sort of peace.
The Vonage V-Phone Launch Party. This is the lamest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. WTF are the Sarsgaards doing there?
