I am writing this with a heavy heart and a profound sense of loss. My son, my beloved child, became the most recent victim of a murder that took place at the infamous Travel Inn Motel on Dort Highway. This place has become a hub for crime, and losing him has devastated our family and shaken our community.

The heartbreaking incident involving my son is not an isolated event. Over the years, this establishment has become synonymous with unlawful activities ranging from drug trafficking to violent crimes, including multiple homicides. According to local police reports, this motel has one of the highest rates of criminal incidents in the area, often acting as a magnet for illicit behavior. Families in our community live in constant fear, knowing that this hotspot of crime is just around the corner.

The closure of the Travel Inn Motel on Dort Highway is imperative for restoring safety and peace in our neighborhood. Imagine a community where we no longer have to worry about the safety of our children, where our streets can be walked without fear, and where travelers can find safe accommodation elsewhere.

The solution is straightforward: shut down the Travel Inn Motel. By doing so, we send a strong message that our community will not stand for such environments that breed violence and threaten our loved ones.
