Duanna Johnson needs our prayer because he has been taken captive by demonic spirits; however, Johnson needs help physically and mentally. We as people need to stop putting people down according to their livelihood and etc. People are in the city robbing, raping, killing each other and dying; while we are worrying about Johnson's living conditions, there are bigger and better fish to catch. Johnson is not bothering anybody so leave Johnson alone; Johnson will not be living in this condition always, NO PAIN- NO GAIN. Johnson has to answer to God and not man for the life he chose to live.

Duanna Johnson is doin her best to make by her being a transgender people look down on her and thats not right God " Say Judge NoOne" and thats what you doing when you judge a person. I also think that it was wrong for the why the police department treated her just because she's a transgender and the people that stood by and let it happen will get there.

oops....Not dewayne...Duannel Johnson. Someone please reach out in love and compassion to offer help and spiritual guidance for "Duanna". I reside 90 miles away, and have no job or money. I will pray that God saves her through the lovingkindness of his servant(S). What a powerful testimony it would be if she got saved, sanctified, and filled with the Holy Ghost!...C'mon now. Let God use YOU! Before it's too late. This is a wonderful opportunity to help a person in need, and a community that needs a positive answer to the prevailing violence!!!!!

This person needs help! So does the previous commenter. God loves us all...period. Is there a christian organization that could help this person? Dewayne is a human being that happens to be entangled deeply in sin. It is only by the grace of God that it's not you or me, in this dyer situation. It is my sincere prayer that dewayne will get the help required from some one who cares. For "citysucs": You "PROBABLY" are no better or worse than dewayne. You should keep your "promise"....we will all be thankful to not hear your profane, self-righteous, hypocritical, uncompassionate comments in the future. To ABC/24: Thanks for caring!
