Al Sharpton’s half-brother charged in murder after marching against guns

The half-brother of Rev. Al Sharpton, also an activist whose group participated in Saturday’s anti-gun March For Our Lives, has been charged in a Sunday shooting death in Dothan, Ala.

Dothan police said that Rev. Kenneth Glasgow was the driver in a car linked to the murder of 23-year-old Breunia Jennings of Dothan by passenger Jamie Townes, 26.

Dothan Police Chief Steve Parrish said that Glasgow and Townes allegedly searched for Jennings, who they believe had stolen Townes’ car. When they found her, Townes allegedly shot Jennings as she drove, hitting her in the head. She died later.

“Instead of him notifying law enforcement, he took matter in his own hands and jumped in Mr. Glasgow's vehicle to find Breunia Jennings," said Parrish, according to a report in the Dothan Eagle.

While police do not believe Glasgow, 52, was the triggerman, under Alabama’s aiding and abetting law, he is is culpable for murder.

Dothan is about 110 miles south of Montgomery, Ala.

Sharpton and Glasgow have been activists on projects together. Glasgow is an ex-convict who started an Alabama ministry called The Ordinary People Society. He has recently been campaigning to restore voting rights for convicts.

His group participated in the Saturday anti-gun march in Dothan. “The shooting occurred late Sunday night. I do not know where he was prior to the incident. It has been reported by several local outlets that he attended a similar event on Saturday,” said a police spokesman.

In 2013, Glasgow teamed with Sharpton to protest the murder of Trayvon Martin in Florida.

He has also led protests against police violence.

His website shows a picture of him with 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The Dothan Eagle said that there was shock over Glasgow’s arrest, but even greater sympathy for the victim.

CO2 makes one gasp to death. N2 just makes you go to sleep and die easy. Several NASA people have died quietly after walking into a test nitrogen atmosphere.

Anybody know what he was convicted of, the serious stuff, to be an "ex-con"?

I only found a criminal trepass etc., and that's probably a requirement for a "community organizer".

And what seminary/religious institution did he go to?

Oklahoma just approved Nitrogen too. I guess CO2 is too cruel.

Excess CO2 triggers the panic 'GOTTA BREATHE NOW!!!" response. Nitrogen is just lights out.

Is he a “half-brother” because one of his parent are white, or because he and Al don’t share the same two parents?

What have we heard over and over? That auto theft isn’t a reason for the popo to shoot someone? Call the insurance company and go car-shopping, it’s said?

But I must be missing something because the article never said if she was driving a stolen car, or, were the keys in the ignition?
