Terrance Wren took to Facebook to share a couple of fiery posts that have sparked discussions, all centered around a 15-year-old boy named August Borden from Tuscumbia, Alabama.
In the first post, Terrance shared a photo of a young boy named August Borden and wrote in all caps, which speaks volumes about his anger.
Although some want everyone to believe August had a “freak accident,” Terrance says everybody knows it wasn’t an accident at all.
The young August was badly hurt, stopped breathing for a while, but by the grace of god, the paramedics brought him back.
Terrance then expresses his frustration that the authorities in Colbert County and Madison County haven’t done a proper investigation, like they never even talked to August’s doctors or looked hard enough for the truth.
He feels they’ve let the family down and pretty much turned their backs on a kid who never hurt anybody.

TO BE SO NEGLIGENT IN THEIR INVESTIGATION IS ABSOLUTELY SHAMEFUL ON COLBERT COUNTY & MADISON COUNTY IN ALABAMA. ITS APPALLING THAT THEY FAILED TO USE THEIR HEARTS TO CARE FOR 15 YEAR OLD AUGUST BORDEN

He reminded everyone that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
Terrance warned the people of Tuscumbia that if they let this slide, the same thing could happen to their own children one day.
A few days later, he came back with another post. He said he needed some time to calm down and think, but he didn’t want the momentum to die.
Terrance asked everyone to keep signing and sharing three online petitions.
One petition calls for Deshler High School football coach Patrick Malone to be removed.
Many parents and residents in town believe the coach didn’t do enough to protect the players, including August.
That petition has already garnered over a thousand signatures and continues to climb.
In fact, the other two petitions are even bigger.
They’re calling for the district attorneys in Colbert County (Robert Broussard) and Madison County (Hal Hughston) to be removed from office for dragging their feet and refusing to dig deeper into what really happened to August.
One has more than 1,300 names, while the other exceeds 2,300 and continues to grow rapidly.
Terrance closed by asking people to visit JusticeForAugust.com to show love and support to August and his family.
