Am I a Murderer? by D.R. DIAZ (Don Rivera Diaz)

What do you say when a doctor hands a twelve-year-old a decision no child should ever have to make?

D.R. Diaz said: "I don't want to see him suffer."

They unplugged the machine. His father died. And for years after that, his mother told him he was the one who did it.

Am I a Murderer? is the raw, unfiltered confession of a Puerto Rican son, a Vietnam veteran's child, and a man who has spent his entire life answering a question nobody should have had to ask him. From the islands of Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic to the war zones of Milwaukee's north side — this is a story about fathers and sons, war and inheritance, alcohol and survival, and what it means to keep building when the foundation was broken before you arrived.

Read it. Then you decide.
