Related:Facts and photos from the real shoeshine boy murder caseThe day it happened was like a handful of others: regular workings. How he could shine shoes so damn well any sergeant with sight would ship the kid right on through basic training based on that fact alone. He did more than shine shoes too. And apparently Jaques and his family booted it over here on a boat from Portugal so the kid knew what work ethic and dollar amounts meant to a good life. When they ended up razing the place to build the new mall, that sign bled rust and irony in the shadow of the sex killing of a 12-year-old shoeshine boy, Emanuel Jaques.
