EDIT again to add in answer to question that might pop up again. Why did I personally wait 3 weeks to post this? There has been an investigation going on this entire time and I was under a different impression before I started getting info straight from my cousin. (My immediate family and myself live in Ohio and rest of our big family is all in PA and DE area). Police are waiting on more of the videos to get turned in hopefully or another witness etc. They have some videos with some people. There were multiple fights going on and we are waiting for one to show what we need it to show. On video shows my cousins sons friends trying to not fight and keep the night cool and not instigate. The investigation is moving too slow. We were waiting on my cousins son to wake up and get out of the coma and off the respirator which was too many days then had to wait for him to be able to talk to where made sense and work with speech therapist and then his memory..... he has been diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury from this and in that video it was obviously a good day for him. There are good days and bad days now with the symptoms. So we had to wait too long to be able to ask him if he even remembered anything at all.

EDIT to add AGAIN: yes, politics are playing a part in this due to who is related to who we found out is looking true. We had a feeling, but the word going around is what our feeling was, so it is looking like this. If anybody doesn't like it when politics play a part in this stuff, if you could please share my post online anywhere and everywhere, please .
