Today Marks the First Anniversary of Adam Bailey's Death

On August 7, 2017, I published an article titled, "Adam Bailey's Murder Shed Light On The Role of GHB In Megan Rondini's Rape Case". Adam Bryant Bailey died one year ago today. He was a 24-year-old forest technician for Forestry Research Contractors in Gordo, Alabama.
In August of 2016, Adam stumbled upon a clandestine sex trafficking ring that his old friend Brett Patrick Davis and several accomplices were operating in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Adam Bailey reportedly went ballistic when he saw a blindfolded and physically restrained underage girl being taken from a vehicle and carried into one of the warehouses to which Brett Davis and his accomplices had access. Adam tried unsuccessfully to intervene on this girl's behalf. This move turned out to be a fatal one for Adam.
Adam Bailey was neutralized to ensure that there would be no further acts on his part to intervene in or otherwise impede the sex trafficking he had witnessed.
On August 7, 2016, Adam was unobtrusively administered a fatal overdose of GHB while he was in the company of Caleb Payne LeGrone, a close friend and drug trafficking partner of Brett Davis. Shortly thereafter, Adam got extremely sick and passed out while he was in the company of Victoria Love, an acquaintance of suspect Caleb LeGrone. Adam experienced nausea, seizures, vomiting, dizziness, depressed breathing, and unconsciousness, all of which are symptoms of a GHB overdose.
Victoria Love contacted Caleb LeGrone to tell him about Adam's physical condition. LeGrone sent a text message to her stating that he (LeGrone) and his accomplices had made up a false story to cover up for what really happened to Adam earlier that night. After speaking with LeGrone, Victoria Love left Adam alone in his truck at his house and went to her home.
Caleb LeGrone and Mathew Fulton Hartley, Adam's housemate, arrived at Adam's house before the police were called. LeGrone told police he tried to revive Adam once they got him inside the house.
After police officers were called to the scene, Adam was taken to DCH Regional Medical Center in Tuscaloosa where he was placed on a respirator for six days. He never regained consciousness. On August 14, 2016 at 10:27 a.m., Adam was taken off the respirator and declared dead.
LeGrone and Hartley were contacted for a follow up interview about the highly questionable text message LeGrone sent to Victoria Love. LeGrone never responded. Hartley did respond, but he wanted an attorney present. Remarkably, the police file does not show any follow-up interviews with LeGrone or Hartley about this matter.
Adam never got a chance to report the sex trafficking activity he had witnessed to law enforcement authorities. He was murdered to prevent this from happening.
On August 16, 2016, an autopsy by the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences listed Adam Bailey's cause of death as a "Seizure Disorder" and the manner of death as "Undetermined". A toxicology report confirmed the presence of various substances in Adam's body, but none that would have caused his death. Some of these substances were administered to Adam as part of his emergency room and ICU medical treatments.
The autopsy procedures did not test the vitreous humor area of Adams' eyes, his tear ducts, or his hair for the presence of GHB. An overdose of GHB would have killed Adam and could have been detected in his body at the time of the autopsy through these testing procedures.
The Tuscaloosa Metro Homicide Unit investigated Adam's death. They closed the case on March 10, 2017, without determining what substance cause Adam's fatal overdose and without following up on Caleb LeGrone's false cover story. No arrest has been made in connection with Adam Bailey's murder.
The police file in Adam's murder case, when viewed under objective and professional standards, is sorely lacking in basic detective work.
Today marks the first anniversary of Adam Bailey's death. An online petition launched by Cindy Gilliam seeks an independent investigation into Adam's murder. In less than a week, the petition has already garnered 1,431 of the 2,000 signatures sought.
The primary suspects in Adam's murder case remain free. Some of them appear to enjoy a special form of protection within Tuscaloosa's law enforcement community as they slide in and out of jail on a carousel basis.

Sheriff Ron Abernathy and DA Hays Webb will take no action in Megan Rondini's rape case that jeopardizes their free skybox access to Crimson Tide football games - Donald V Watkins


https://www.facebook.com/donald.v.watkins/posts/10213855173075653 

Donald V. Watkins Just to be clear, there will be no criminal justice in Megan Rondini's rape case as long as Tuscaloosa County Sheriff Ron Abernathy is in office and Hays Webb is the local district attorney. Look at Abernathy (left) and Webb (right) living it up in a skybox at last year's Alabama versus Kent State football game at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa. These men will take no action in Megan's rape case that jeopardizes their free skybox access to Crimson Tide football games. The Bunn family owns these two compromised public officials and the price to "buy" them was cheap.

COMMENTARY---
The University Of Alabama Sides With "Sweet T" In Megan Rondini Rape Case
By Donald V. Watkins
©Copyrighted and Published (via Facebook) on August 13, 2017 - 6:31 am/ct
The University of Alabama has chosen a side in the high-profile Megan Rondini rape case. Megan was an exceptionally bright and respected UA honors student who accused Terry J. "Sweet T" Bunn, Jr., of raping her during the early morning hours of July 2, 2015. After Sweet T escaped prosecution on Megan's rape charge, she committed suicide.
The University has abandoned Megan Rondini and is standing with Sweet T in her rape case. By siding with Sweet T, the University has failed Megan and her parents, again, and has placed its female students at risk.
Sources close to the University's board of trustees say the institution is unwilling to jeopardize its longtime financial relationship with the Bunn family over Megan's report to Sheriff's investigators that Sweet T raped her. It's that simple.
Ms. Leslie Abernathy, the University's Director of Corporate and Foundation Relations, oversees donor relationship with major financial contributors like the Bunn family. She is married to Sheriff Ron Abernathy, the man who reportedly ordered his criminal investigators to "script" Megan Rondini's rape case for Sweet T's benefit. This directive transformed Megan from an innocent "victim" of a promptly and properly reported rape into a fully Mirandized "criminal suspect" for actions she took in escaping the crime scene.
The Bunn family's relationship with the University is mutually beneficial and ironclad. Over the years, the Bunn family has shown its support of the University by: (a) leasing a luxury skybox suite in Bryant-Denny Stadium, which required a one-time $500,000 pledge of money, together with a hefty annual lease payment, plus the costs of game tickets; (b) serving as a member of the Crimson Tradition Committee which raised more than $70 million to renovate and construct certain athletic facilities on campus; (c) contributing major donations to the Crimson Tide Foundation; and (d) lending the use of its corporate jet to the Athletic Department.
Terry Bunn, Sr., has also served as a member of the University President's Cabinet, which is a powerful group of about 300 members who advise the President on matters of importance to the alumni, donors, political establishment, and corporate community.
At the time Megan Rondini accused Sweet T of rape, Terry Bunn, Sr., and Terry Bunn, Jr., were gubernatorial appointees to the governing board of separate state agencies. Each represented the district that encompasses Tuscaloosa.
By aligning itself with Sweet T, the University has chosen to ignore a mountain of evidence supporting Megan's rape claim. As we understand it, the University is clinging to a false and misleading narrative, birthed by Sweet T and packaged by his protectors in the local law enforcement community, that an "outgoing", "friendly", and "flirtatious" Megan Rondini wanted to have spontaneous, "consensual", unprotected sex with him, unaided by the administration of a "date rape" drug. Parroting a PR theme from a recent Bunn family attack ad against Megan, University officials are privately telling concerned parties that text messages in Megan's phone on the night in question support this narrative.
No text message on Megan's cell phone or Sweet T's phone evidences her consent to have any kind of sex with Sweet T. His number was not in Megan's phone, and hers was not in Sweet T's phone.
By embracing Sweet T's false and self-serving narrative, the University has elevated its financial relationship with the Bunn family over the safety and security of one of its brightest and most disciplined female students.
Since Megan's rape case became public in June, the University has not taken any steps to warn freshman and upper class female students about Sweet T and his predatory behavior. It has taken no steps to ban Sweet T, a 2005 alumnus, from the campus. Furthermore, the University has not requested Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Megan's rape case, from top to bottom.
Instead, the University has quietly collaborated with the Bunn family and others to trash Megan Rondini in the court of public opinion and in the court of law.
In light of this catastrophic failure of leadership by University President Stuart Bell and the University's board of trustees, we are issuing the appropriate warning about Sweet T to all incoming and returning female students. This warning is issued solely for the purpose of preventing another Megan Rondini-type incident, which ultimately resulted in the tragic loss of her life.
On August 2, 2017, President Bell issued what he characterized as an "important message about sexual misconduct reporting and resources." This message, which was issued in the wake of growing criticism over the University's mishandling of Megan Rondini's rape case, simply shared general information on "resources, reporting options and support available to those affected by sexual misconduct."
To the disappointment of many, Dr. Bell did not have the courage to use the word "rape" in his "important message" and he did not have the decency to address Megan Rondini's rape case in his passive "Cover-Your-A--" message.
Again, Dr. Bell's message focused on what female victims of sexual assaults can do AFTER they have been raped. Megan properly reported her rape case, but it did not matter because the "suspect" involved was well connected to the Tuscaloosa law enforcement community and the University.
Dr. Bell's message was completely devoid of any new rape prevention measures being implemented by the University to minimize the possibility that Megan's tragic experience can happen again to another female student.
Finally, the University's unholy alliance with Sweet T and the Bunn family in the Megan Rondini rape case sends a powerful message to all female students that when the institution has to choose between supporting a student who is a rape "victim" and a "suspect" who is the immediate family member of a big-money donor, the University will subjugate the value it places on the lives and safety of its female students in order to side with the big-money interests every time.

Was Megan Rondini’s Accused Rapist Tied To The Underworld Of “Date Rape” Drugs And Sexual Abuse In Tuscaloosa? - Donald V. Watkins
