There’s a serial killer in Chattanooga.
The killer is apathy, and apathy strikes every day. Sometimes every hour, every minute.
Apathy strikes every time witnesses to crime will not own up to seeing anything, hearing anything, knowing anything. Apathy strikes every time a witness refuses to come forward about another shooting, another drug deal, another threat.
Over and over and over, apathy kills progress and values in this city that seems to have almost everything else going for it – everything except infectious, cancerous apathy.
