Ritualistic killings were also commonplace during Tubman’s era. Willie Tolbert allowed the rule of law to take its course in 1979 – when the Supreme Court sent to death by hanging some seven Marylanders allegedly accused of ritualistic murder.

The unimaginably horrifying, fearsome, shocking, appalling, repulsive and sickening murder of George Fanbutu speaks of the era of barbaric gladiators – when humans were treated as animals. George did not deserve to be murdered as such no matter how damaging the alleged information he might have supposedly been poised to expose.
