Sharpton left and the Rev. Horace Sheffield, a local version of Sharpton, got stiffed for $4,000 in funeral costs, claiming Aiyana's father made off with the donations people gave to cover it.
"I'm trying to find him," Sheffield complained. "But he doesn't return my calls. It's always like that. People taking advanage of my benevolence. They went hog wild. I mean, hiring the Rosa Parks carriage?"
"I don't owe Sheffield shit," says Jones. "He got paid exactly what he was supposed to be paid."
"Sharpton's full of shit," said Je'Rean's mother. "He came here for publicity. What the hell you doing up here for? The kids are dropping like flies and he's got nothing but useless words." (Je'Rean is the teen that was killed which was part of the lead up to the SWAT being used).

Well I guess that's that... Sharpton did his thing, someone got stiffed with a big funeral bill and they all left...
