Where were Raniya's injuries? Her throat, chest, where?
The South Carolina State Bureau of Investigation needs to be enlisted in solving this murder. If the SBI can't or won't take the case, then call the FBI and simply ask them to determine the death of a fifth grader that went to school and was fatally injured.
Stop expecting anyone locally to handle this. If it hasn't resulted in knowledge to her death a week after the incident, it never will. Get higher authorities involved.
Who is sure if she was injured in a fight? Where is the proof and who was involved? I don't think she was injured in a fight. I do believe there is a cover up and she was murdered. The question is, was it manslaughter or not?

The father of a South Carolina girl (click here) who died after a fight in her classroom last week made a public plea Monday for answers about what happened to his daughter.
Ten-year-old Raniya Wright died Wednesday, two days after she was injured when a fight broke out at Forest Hills Elementary School in Walterboro -- a town of 5,100 people about an hour's drive west of Charleston.
A week after the fatal injuries, authorities still haven't told Raniya's father exactly what happened or what kind of injuries the fifth-grader suffered.
"I'm here today looking for justice for my daughter," Jermaine Van Dyke told reporters at a news conference Monday. "I want just to find out what happened, how it happened, and who was involved."
