RIP Carmelo

shocking! he dedicated his life to serve his country and this is how he gets repaid.




Im so sorry, there's no words for the family, just to remember his soul and heart, and for the gov: help them somehow, but the family will never recover their awesome son, God bless this family, this is not fair at all

he was diagnosed with melanoma (skin cancer) back in 1997.. but the doctor who diagnosed it had no recomendations and never passed it onto his medical record. And 10 years later his condition got bad and right when they were doing this interview.. 8 minutes before that he passed away. The marine doctors didnt do shit about it..

damn that's fucked up. they just chalk it up as a "screw up" whoever was his doctor/nurses should at least lose their license to practice.

they tried to hit up the doctor but the military kept hiding him basically. Theyre trying to sweep this one under the rug just like all the other cases against them.

Fucked up thing is his family cant sue the Government because its against the law for a soldier or some shit.. if you're a civilian you can tho.
