STEVE UTASH - THE WHITE DRIVER ALMOST LYNCHED BY BLACK MOB - RETURNS TO WORK

After many months in hospital as a result of a severe beating by a black mob, Steve Utash is finally able to go back to work.

Back in April of this year on a Detroit street, Steve Utash accidentally ran over a ten-year old black child who had dashed in front of his vehicle. 
 
Mr Utash got out of his car to help, and immediately a black mob pounced on him and beat him almost to death.  He was barely alive when a woman in the crowd asked for a stop to the beating, and an ambulance arrived to render first aid. 

The black boy only suffered a broken leg and within hours was released from hospital.  The mob left Mr Utash in a coma, fighting for his life.
 
The situation was much more serious for the driver, Steve Utash.  While being in a coma for some time, there was fear he would not recover well enough from his brain damage to live a normal life.  What followed were many months of intensive care and therapy.  But he was resilient and has recovered enough to go back to work.

 
The brutality of the crowd elicited the compassion of many people.  A Facebook page helped raise almost $190,000 for his care.  You can read Steve's letter at the bottom of this page addressed to the many people who supported him and his family in his ordeal. 
 
The trial.
 
Although there were at least a dozen people involved in the attack, only five were charged.  But not with attempted murder.  Those charges were dropped.  Prosecutors argued that the sentences that followed were too light.

James Davis, 35, must serve a year in jail, but is allowed to leave for the day to go to work.
 
Latrez Cummings, 19, was sentenced to only six months in jail.
 
Wonzey Saffold, 30, was sentenced to more than six years in prison.  He already had a criminal record.

Bruce Winbush, 18, was placed on probation.
 
A 17-year old charged as juvenile was sentenced to only 90 days in a juvenile detention center.  An ethnic intimidation charge against him was dropped as part of a plea deal.

Had the victim been black, and the assailants white, the judicial system itself, would have produced a much harsher set of charges and sentences, while the public and the media would have howled "racism" for months on end.

Letter from Steven Utash
"Today is Sunday August 3rd and tomorrow I go back to work. I have no damage to my mind and body I am just fine. Its been a long wait for the OK from the doctors. Its finally here, tomorrow I will finally get my life back.
 
Well I just have to thank all the THOUSANDS of people from all over teh world that gave me their love and support with there words and their don...ations. When I think of everyone that was there for me it brings me to tears to feel what I only can describe as love from strangers. I really don't know how to write my feelings in words to show what all of you people have made me feel, which was important, and special.  

I have NEVER felt so connected to so many people. Some of the get well cards from the elementary school, their words of a child but wisdom was the same as a grown adult. All were raising me above the wrong that was done to me. When the whole world is on your side its a great feeling. My side is that I stopped to help the kid that ran into the side of my truck, he would have died if i hit him with the front. W
 
e both have a lot to be thankful for. I do not use computers my daughter does. So that's why you don't hear from me more. I like to write more but its hard to write about things that I feel. But please with all my heart I want people to know every time I go over the support I have received I cry like a new born baby waiting to experience their fullness of life.
 
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I'll always remember all of you loving people.
 
Thank you to Debbie Hughes who threw her body over mine to stop the crowd from killing me, she sure is a brave woman. Also, thank you to all the medical people that surrounded me. I notice people in the medical field are all angels here to make other peoples life continue. Without them, where would we go?
 
Thank you to the people at St. Johns hospital, thank you to the people at DMC Rehab facility. Everything about what happen to me was worth it to feel the pure love of mankind in it's purist form. People are love, and I love you all. Thank you."
