The way they killed my son, hitting him against a wall and we found him with a swollen head. They killed him in a tragic manner and I don’t think I’ll ever forgive in this case, especially if it is police who were involved and who were there. // At that time Ruben got a chance to go to the funeral and I told him to eat because he did not eat that day. I went to the room to sleep, but I decided to make a tea first. Before I pour this tea three boys came in and they told me Ruben has been shot. // I don’t think of anything if ever I was to be employed as a maid I was going to poison the white man’s children.
