Deltha Katherine Harpin shared how her husband, Phillip Harpin, was almost arrested for being black near the scene of an earlier crime.
My husband is 31 years old. My husband can proofread a paper to perfection! He makes the best pork chops and neck bones. My husband was raised in an extremely wholesome home where they were not even allowed to watch. My husband has never tried any drugs, not even weed. He has never stolen from anyone, not even a corner store. My husband treats me and our sons like royalty. He serves at our local church faithfully and helps anyone he can.
The older woman was now watching and the cops revealed she had called in his suspicious behavior of pumping gas. The officers released my husband after this. Not because my husband told them multiple times he was innocent. Not because there were two car seats in the back of my car. My husband's voice meant nothing.My hard-working, kind-hearted, silly husband was guilty because of his skin and there was absolutely nothing he could do about it. The sight of him caused a woman to call the police. He said he wanted to scream. He wanted to fight.
