America's Most Wanted looking into murder of John Gilbride - *warning racial slur used by Pam Africa

America's Most Wanted looking into murder of John Gilbride - *warning racial slur used by Pam Africa

In 2010 the syndicated television show AMERICA'S MOST WANTED chose to produce an episode on the unsolved murder of John Gilbride.

I spoke with two members of the production team, one that setup the shoots and a producer who was in Philadelphia.

The Gilbride family provided on-camera interviews with AMW over the course of two days.

Then AMW host Tom Morris Jr., a producer and camera crew trying to get Alberta Africa's story went to Philadelphia for MOVE's anniversary event for May 13th.

This is the raw footage of host Tom Morris asking questions and trying to make contact with Alberta (Wicker Gilbride) Africa. There were 100+ people in this room and other camera crews.  

This episode never aired and then the AMW series ended.  According to my sources, the "powers that be" behind AMW are the one that nixed this episode.  *FYI, I have my own source for this footage as there were multiple cameras at MOVE's event/press conference that day. 

Dozens of sources spanning the entire 50 year history of MOVE have spoken about verbal abuse, threats and the use of racial and homophobic slurs used against outsiders but also used inside of MOVE, both adults and children. 

When you watch this video you will see MOVE children purposely put in front of the cameras and told to encircle Tom Morris.  The MOVE children are not unnerved by this incident because verbal aggression was normalized within MOVE.

In this vimeo link you will see and hear the following adults who were fully aware of the multiple cameras at this public event:  (listed in order of appearance) AMW host Tom Morris Jr.,  Ramona Johnson "Africa" (MOVE's Minister of Information and only adult to exit fortified 6221 Osage Avenue on 5/13/85), Jeanette Knighton aka Pam Africa (MOVE's Minister of Confrontation - main activity is Mumia Abu Jamal fundraising), Suzanne Ross (longtime MOVE and Mumia supporter), Orie Ross (longtime MOVE and Mumia supporter - inner circle), and (former MOVE & Mumia supporter) Bob Massey.  

This video is Tom Morris confronting members of the radical MOVE cult in Philadelphia about a murder they are suspected of, from Tom Morris Jr. on Vimeo.

I went to Philadelphia on the anniversary of the MOVE CULT'S epic violent shootout with the police to confront them about the murder of a young man named John Gilbride who had joined the group and ended up being murdered. It turned into quite a confrontation. At the 24 minute mark, the video freezes up but the audio is clear. Listen to their "Minister of Confrontation" curse Tom Morris out in epic venomous fashion.
