    People, something needs to be done about this. We have to look at the bigger picture. If this is allowed to happen in Paris, TX. It will start to happen in other cities across Texas and the United States rapidly. This young lady needs to be freed. The punishment does not fit the crime. Don't blame the parents people please. Shaquanda Cotton,  God will take care of you. Keep your head up, Pray and look to God when you're down. Don't give up. Satin wants you to give up. God has you. Always remember that. God Loves You And So Do I. PDW

    Shaquanda, you don't deserve this. My prayer is that you stay strong and keep the faith. Remember that the race is not given to the quick or swift, but to the one who endureth to the end. God will never leave you or forsake you...if he bring you to it; he will surely bring you through it. Keep the faith!

    The real question begs to be answered, and I have read different opinions on this from several other sites.....why wasn't she allowed to just GO INTO THE SCHOOL? It was before classes even started. Why was this aide keeping this child from entering the building to get to class, and why wasn't this brought up at the hearing????????

    Shaquanda, you represent the black children not only your country but the whole world. African children are praying for you. What they did to you cannot happen in present day Africa. Stay strong for GOD loves you. Africans welcome you to live in Africa.

    My prayer for you Shaquanda is for you to really know who freed you, it was the Lord who freed you and it's the Lord who will keep you free just put your faith and trust in him,  You had alot of people praying for you and writing letters and signing petitions and making phone calls but more important than any of that was prayer, stay stronge my sister.

    In reference to what David McQueen wrote...It wouldn't matter if she was black or white, the whole deal was it was a BIG MISUNDERSTANDING and honeslty if she was white,it would've never even went as far as jail, OR COURT! And u know that! But I mean wit a name as Shaquanda Cotton,she was destined to be SOMETHING,GOD HAS HIS HANDS on that child and she may not know,but she has just been inducted into BLACK HISTORY!!!!!
    CONGRATULATIONS MS. COTTON!

    Hi Ace Rich, thanks for your response on this. My question was would those who were as passionate about this case, acted on it because it was a juvenile or just because she was a black girl.

    I am glad that she was freed if she was incarcerated in error, but am also conscious as to how silent the same said voices will be in addressing the bigger issues of child incarceration.
