Hello. I'm new here. I've been looking for some online support for months now. I am 24 years old and have just suffered the greatest loss I've ever had to experience. One of my best friends was killed in March. He was 22 years old. He was beat to death by four men. Three of the four men have been released and charged with second degree assault. The forth remains in jail on first degree assault. Since this happened, I have been filled with so much hate and anger. How could something like this happen to someone? And how can the others not be punished for their crime? Assault? What about murder? It's so unfair. He was robbed of his entire life, and they spent 3 months in jail. Not a day goes by that I don't wallow in this. I'm depressed and angry. I take it out on others around me. Some tell me to forgive them for their crimes. I can't. I'm still so angry. Where can I begin? What do I need to do to get on with my life?
