Many of my readers might recall a story I wrote here with regard to Shay Pendleton, an Arizona mother who continues to grieve over the unsolved mystery and the death of her son in Goodyear, Arizona. The case has not been solved, and the issue didn’t even go through the Silent Witness program. This is an unsolved mystery with regard to the Goodyear Police Department. You can hear Shay’s story here via the Lou Show. With that said, this lovely grieving mother was given news this past week that she may not see justice for her son who died almost five years ago.

Perhaps she may not see “justice” for the wrongful death of her son, but the citizens of Goodyear have the ability to help this grieving mom achieve poetic justice.

There are two City Councilmen who are up for re-election that this grieving mother is concerned about: Wally Campbell and Joe Pizillo who

Jered Pendleton made this for his mother. The back of what he made caused tears and heart ache for his mom because he wrote to keep that keepsake when she needed to remember him when he was “gone.”

chose to turn a blind eye to her son’s unsolved mystery death. According to the views of the grieving mother, Wally Campbell and Joe Pizillo, ignored her cries for justice.

What possible hope can I give this grieving mother after she received a dose of harsh news that she may not see justice?

Her tears automatically roll off her cheeks, and I’m not sure where they come from since I know she has cried rivers … yet they continue to pour out of her eyes with desperate love for her son who will never come back.

All I knew how to tell her is that there is still hope for justice. The citizens of Goodyear could turn the tide and vote against Wally Campbell and Joe Pizzillo on the mother’s behalf…and on Jared Pendleton’s behalf.

Ballots will be mailed out on Valentine’s Day — February 14th, 2013, so please do NOT vote for Wally Campbell and Joe Pizillo this year. Please give this grieving mom hope that hope can be achievable — after all, the Power belongs to the People. Now is the time for moms who are feeling this story to be a soldier for Shay Pendleton …. and to rally up in the name of “Justice for Jared.”

There are 3 new folks running now — and you can vote for in an effort to help oust Wally Campbell and Joe Pizillo:

1. Sharolyn Hohman
2. Brannon Hampton
3. Karl-Heinz Weber

Howard is a Goodyear Blogger and he wrote about the Pendleton case and the ongoing mismanagement in Goodyear, Arizona.

He states:

City Claims Mostly Rejected in Pendleton Case; $50 Million Plus in Problems Brought to Taxpayers by Incompetent City Management and High Handed Mayor and City Council

“…Just like the whole Pendelton case. Who knows what happened there? We may never know. But all sides agree that there were BIG mistakes made by the police department which led to the uncertainty. And former GY Police Chief Mark Brown testified that Fischbach and the GY top management team at the time knew about the problems with the Pendleton accident only about ONE WEEK after the accident happened back in April 2008.

Leadership and proper management at the time could have fixed it then. Two employees came forward and said something needed to be done. Goodyear should have fixed it then but they didn’t. If they had fixed it then, there would not be lawsuits going on now from two former discharged police employees (Woodmansee and Rowan) nor a lawsuit from Pendleton’s mother. Instead, Goodyear has stonewalled the entire Pendleton affair and played hard ball all the way.

Sound like Georgia and the incompetents again to you? This is your money being spent by their poor leadership and mismanagement…”

Several supporters stood by this grieving mother’s side at last night’s vigil while the Goodyear City council was having a meeting at the Goodyear City Hall. Two notable individuals who stood beside the grieving mother were Terri Hall Woodmansee and John Rowan.

According to the Lou Show,

“This story ties in with John Rowan, who ran in the Democratic Primary for Maricopa County Sheriff Office last year. Rowan refused to cover up the Goodyear Police Department’s botched murder investigation. Rowan was deemed “unviable” as a candidate in the eyes of the county democratic party, and this assessment was incorrect. Unfortunately, this assessment was enough to sway democrats towards Paul Penzone when Rowan was the better, more qualified, candidate. So you see, the Goodyear Police Department, in relation to this case, has caused quite a bit of damage.”

More importantly, both Wally Campbell and Joe Pizillo are two city council members that should probably be elected OUT of office come February since it appears they have not been supportive to solving this unsolved mystery.

Channel 5 of Arizona has an exclusive interview with Terri Woodmansee and John Rowan — supporters of this grieving mother. We are thankful she received light and love from several other supporters, too.

The goal to shedding light on this story has much to do with getting this unsolved mystery death solved, and we hope to see swift justice given to this grieving mother. We will keep an eye on the Goodyear City Council elections coming up this February.
