Temporary memorial to Genson Courtney
Image: © Robin Webster Taken: 30 Oct 2011
Genson Courtney, a drug dealer, had fallen out with his uncle. The uncle executed him with a single close range shot through the eye as he was getting into his car, on 3 July 2011, about four months before this view. The uncle and his getaway driver were sentenced to a minimum of 31 years after a trial in 2013. The family and their associates appear to have been a violent and forceful crowd, and possibly still are. I wonder how Jurkman were persuaded to incorporate this into their hoarding?
