He was my cousin but more like my brother...he may have done some things I'm sure he wasn't proud of but no one deserves 2 die like that...if u ask me it seems kind of shady. They still won't discloase many times he was shot implying that there are some other thingas being investigated. There are members of that SWAT team that are suspended w/out pay. Hhhmmmm I wonder why that is...think about it

Its to many people in pain over Corey's death for us not to know how many bullets killed him or why they wasn't able to save him.I think about him every single day all I want is my boo back.and another thing I pay taxes I don't pay y'all to kill people I love.I pay y'all to get the terrorist the blue collar a holes that think they can get away with taking our jobs and killing there wives and ish so screw the swat team you didn't have a reason to shoot he was wanted for questioning idiots bless y'all Corey's gonna get justice

I think that the person that posted last means, white collar.
Also, Corey was my cousin. I'll miss him. I just hope that he didn't suffer in the shooting. I can hope that because he didn't linger long that he didn't experience as much pain.

I can't believe I'm just now finding out about this. I was a friend of his back in michigan. After all these years I wouldn't have thought the worst would happen to him like this. I'll miss you hun!

i just came across a letter Corey wrote to me back in 05 or 06. he was locked up at some place in penn. i believe..and it left me in tears. still miss this guy. thinking back to old elementary and neighborhood days. ohhh the young love we had. you never forget those silly childhood memories. always be remembered and in our hearts forever.

It is still strange to think that he is gone.
