!!!!!!!!!! ATTENTION !!!!!!!!!!
Teen Found Dead In Police Custody; Police Won’t Give Family Any Details
16 year old Gynnya McMillen was found dead early Monday morning at a juvenile detention center near Elizabethtown, according to the Kentucky Justice Cabinet. A spokesperson told WDRB she couldn’t give any details, except that it happened early Monday morning, Jan. 11.
According to the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet’s statement, the girl was found unresponsive. Officials did not say where she was found and her autopsy reads that she has “no cause of death,” leaving a lot of people asking questions like how a completely healthy teenage girl was found dead without any cause?
McMillens sister took to Facebook asking that her sister’s death not be ignored. She wrote:
“I’m asking that everyone repost and share my sisters story on your pages and in any groups that will help us get it out there. My 16yr old sister died in custody of a detention center but they’re not giving out any info on how she was found and they’re saying her autopsy shows no cause of death. The news channels only played her story one time. We want justice and Kentucky isn’t giving it to us! Thanks for all the prayers and help. Gynnya McMillen”
The family of the victim is saying police won’t give them any information and not a single media source is covering this story.
Police in the area are said to be “investigating the death.” Which we all know what that means…

dekonstruktivisme:

Olivier Theyskens autumn—winter 1999—00.
For the Winter of 1999-2000 he wanted an extremely refined collection, with the occasional discord. The unity of his monochrome silhouettes was broken by several mannequins on the runway, enfolded in impressive constructions of material. “L’antinomique de l’extrémisme”, as he puts it himself.
Olivier Theyskens: I wanted this collection to be extreme. Monochrome black, with a touch of blue and white. At the same time there was the desire to go beyond the extreme, to show the absurd.
The hardest thing is to finish a collection, to see what you want to see. It’s like a Brazilian who has made his carnival costume: he’ll spend six months making it, the stress for him will be that everything has to be perfect at the moment of the carnival parade.
The history of costumes is interesting especially for keeping your feet on the ground, and for knowing that you’re not doing anything extraordinary either. Just look at everything that has been done in the past, and you come right back down to earth.
In twenty years’ time people will be able to see that my clothes were made in 1999, and they will probably be very difficult to wear.
