Hey everyone, I've been following the discussions about Bennie Goodwin's case and wanted to bring up something I've been thinking about. It seems like a lot of attention is often focused on the crime itself, but what about the aftermath for the neighborhood? Bennie was found on Mackay Street, which is not just where he died, but also where people lived their everyday lives. I can’t even imagine how the residents must feel, knowing that something so tragic happened just outside their doors. This kind of incident can really shake a community to its core. What is even more challenging is the fact that many of these communities lack the resources to adequately process or recover from such events. It's not just about solving the crime (though that is hugely important); it's about what can be done to support those left to cope with fear and anxiety every day. We often forget that the impact of such violence goes beyond statistics—it creates ripples of trauma that affect everyone, especially young people, who might be even more vulnerable to such violence. Thoughts or insights on how communities like those on Mackay Street can find the strength to heal and support each other?
