LOGAN, W. Va. (WSAZ)--Another march for Megan Williams is planned for Saturday, April 26th in Logan.

Megan is the young African American woman who was allegedly raped and tortured by six white people in Logan County last summer.

Four pleaded guilty and have been sentenced.

A group called the Black Unity Coalition is planning the march in an effort to get the trials of Danny Combs and Bobby Brewster moved to another county.

Combs' trial is scheduled for April 28.

Brewster's trial is scheduled for July 28.

Hi, apparently race is important, so I'm a caucasion american. For the people saying that they are tired of hearing about Megan, too bad, Deal. Sickos traumatized her. What if it was YOU? Don't base your vote on race or with a republican in office you can keep kissing our economy goodbye. We need a democrat ANY color. Why sit there and complain about a victim march. Someone mentioned Leigh, how about doing research and helping. How horrible that people can whine about a victim march. Btw, I hope the whole set of Sickos NEVER get out of jail. West Virgina must flat out BACKWARDS to be contemplating civil rights in "2008" and having race issues. Go visit a big city and catch up with the rest of America.

NO BLACK UNITY COALITION, the original inhabitants were the NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS. BLACKY ITS NOT PEOPLE LIKE JOE THAT MAKE THE YOUNGER GENERATION THE WAY IT IS, ITS THE PEOPLE THAT DIDN'T MAN UP AND TAKE ON THE RESPONSIBILITY OF RAISING A FAMILY. IT THE PEOPLE THAT POINTED THE FINGER EVERYWHERE ELSE EXCEPT AT THEIR PRECIOUS INNOCENT CHILD THAT WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING. Jake THAT WOULD BE WHATEVER AND SUCKER, GOOD MAN DOWN NEED TO LEARN TO SPELL.
