Yesterday, CNN news reported on the defacement and scandal surrounding the Burr Oak Cemetery in Illinois, a historically African-American Cemetery that serves as the final resting place to blues/jazz, R&B singer Dinah Washington and civil rights victim, Emmet Till. Over 300 graves were disturbed, meaning the remains were moved and dismembered or the caskets were "pushed down" further to accommodate more bodies.

The owner of the cemetery is said to have triggered the investigation and much remains to be seen about who the real owner was of this gruesome master plan.

Jesse Jackson said it best when he mentioned there was a special place in Hell for these individuals. Where is the morality? What plausible rationale could any of them give the other push through with this plan?
