Clarence Thomas’s “Son” Breaks Silence From Jail

Mark Martin, the man raised by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas as a “son,” is speaking out on the sad truth of their relationship.
The man Clarence Thomas said he once considered like a “son” now says that Thomas doesn’t want much to do with him.
Mark Martin, the grandson of Thomas’s sister Emma Mae Martin, spoke to Business Insider from a jail cell in South Carolina and said that the Supreme Court justice and his wife, Ginni, don’t have a relationship with him anymore, despite being his legal guardians from age 6 to 19.
Martin, who is awaiting trial on drug and weapons charges after he was arrested last summer, benefited from gifts Thomas received from conservative billionaire Harlan Crow, which the Supreme Court justice initially failed to include in financial disclosures.
“I haven’t really heard much from them in a long time,” Martin said of his adoptive parents. “I tried to communicate with them a couple of times, but I’ve never gotten any response.”
…
Thomas didn’t respond to Business Insider’s request for comment, but it’s not likely that he would have offered any acceptable justification for his and his wife’s treatment of someone they have referred to as a son. Thomas still refuses to speak about the unethical gifts he has received and adamantly refuses to resignfrom the Supreme Court despite all of his ethics scandals. Sadly, it seems that Martin’s life has been a casualty of Clarence and Ginni Thomas’s service to the conservative movement.
Biden reaches out to his son, telling him he loves him and will always be there for him
GOP: HES WEAK AND SATAN INCARNATE!
Thomas drops all contact with sisters grandson who obviously needs help
GOP: WHAT A SAINT!!!
There are no bad actions, only bad people. /s
I hope Mark gets help. Fuck Clarence.
I mean, it tracks. He’s not a fetus so they don’t give a shit.
A fetus or a Gop rich donor
There's really no end to the depth of Clarence's moral bankruptcy... Not even responding to your "son" when he's struggling and reaching out.
“I actually don’t know if they know that I’m locked up—I’m not sure they’d care too much,” Martin said. “I’ve seen—I’ve probably seen them two times, maybe three times, over the last 14 years.”
Fucking cold... I really hope Martin's able to get the help he needs as well
To be fair, he sounds like precisely the sort of person raised by Clarence and Gini Thomas.
He's racked up firearms charges by travelling around with a Glock and AK rolling around by the feet of his minor children, in a vehicle associated with a juvenile trafficking ring, and carrying 24g of heroin that he admitted was his. He has other charges for trafficking meth and heroin.
