It's to be in shock, to be angry, to be fearful.
About a month after Tim was arrested, as Tim's lawyers prepared to argue for his release at a bond hearing, his supporters came out in droves.
These are people from church, from the community, people he knew growing up?
He had received over 70 letters from the Grenada Sheriff and other law enforcement officers in his church community, basically campaigning for him to get out before they had ever heard the evidence or knew what was going on, based on Tim Harrington being a good boy.
We quickly organized to make sure that if Tim Harrington was being accused of doing something to Jay, that he wouldn't get bond.
That movement, Justice for Jay, started on social media and quickly grew to much more.
At this point, these are physical gatherings now.
We were actually on the lawn of the courthouse just crying as we were getting the information from Twitter.
