WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Justice Department will fast track the sending of $29 million to South Carolina to help families of victims of the mass murder of nine churchgoers at a historic black church in Charleston, a Justice Department spokesman said on Friday. An unspecified portion of the money, allocated under the government’s national Crime Victim Assistance Formula Grant program, can be used to provide services to the families of victims of the shootings at Emmanuel AME Church , spokesman Kevin Lewis said.

That works out to about $3.2 million per family. Why is this huge amount coming out the taxpayers by route of the DOJ?



Have they lost their minds?

I'm sure that it will cement a lot of black v**es for the democrats all across America.

That would not surprise me in the least. I don't see those i***ts in congress making any waves. If the DOJ has that much loose change lying around then their budget needs to be cut drastically. Furthermore it is S. Carolina's problem not the Federal Government's. :hunf: :XD: :XD:

The families will never get even a fraction of that money. Money appropriated, not spent. This is a story created by newsmax, for the gullible.

In the wake of the December 14, 2012 Sandy Hook school massacre event overseen by the Department of Homeland Security Eric Holder's DOJ funneled at least 9 million in federal money via the DOJ to the Newtown community for alleged services to victims' families and the "trauma" experienced by first responders (e.g. here, here and here).


Such funding bolstered an unprecedented $50 million allocated by Connecticut Governor Daniel Malloy for the construction of a new Sandy Hook Elementary School contingent upon the leveling of the then-existing structure. Further, tens of millions were generated through a "Sandy Hook Charity Industry"–a vast array of independent charities purportedly soliciting funds on behalf of the families. The population of Newtown is 1,977, according to 2013 statistics.
