Edwards took umbrage with a letter Mullen had published on December 26 offering her insight into the […]
Back in March, we reported on the West Virigina Sheriff who denied CPR to a dying gay man under the pretext that the man was HIV+. The man, Claude Greene, died later that evening at a local hospital.
