Slain son lives in gift of life: heart transplant bonds two families

The mother of a young man who was shot to death while delivering pizza pressed her head against the chest of the man who now has his heart.

She stayed there a while, quietly crying and listening.

Maraleius Gardner-Birdsong was shot to death in March while delivering pizza. His organs have saved the lives of four people.
Teresa Gardner meets with Timothy Jordan of Darlington, who is the transplant recipient of her son’s heart.

“I reached right up and felt his heart beating,” Teresa Gardner said at the emotional meeting Monday. “I felt very blessed that my son is still here with us, just in another dimension.”

Her son, 20-year-old Maraleius Gardner-Birdsong, was shot to death in March while delivering a pizza in a North Charleston apartment complex. Two teens have been charged in his death.

His organs saved the lives of four people, according to LifePoint, which coordinated the donations.

Timothy Jordan, 42, of Darlington received his heart. He and his family drove to LifePoint’s North Charleston office to meet his donor’s mother for the first time.

“I was happy that I was going to receive a heart to prolong my life, but it was sad that someone had to pass away for me to live on,” Jordan said through tears. “That was the hardest thing for me.”

Gardner-Birdsong was a straight-A student at Trident Technical College with plans to get an engineering degree at The Citadel. He chose to designate himself as an organ donor on his driver’s license.

Jordan was a supervisor at Georgia Pacific when he was struck down by a blood infection that shut down his organs and destroyed his heart. He got Gardner-Birdsong’s heart in March and has been gradually regaining strength.

A floragraph, a photo-like image of Gardner-Birdsong made from flowers and plant parts, will be on a float in the Rose Parade Jan. 1, along with those representing 71 other organ donors. The Donate Life float, big enough for 30 riders, is a colorful series of looping hearts.

The floragraph was made mostly by volunteers from One Legacy-California. Gardner-Birdsong’s family and friends will put the finishing touches on it this morning at LifePoint.

The two families said they forged a connection Monday that’s hard to express with words.

“I feel like … I’m part of her now and she’s a part of me,” Jordan said.

“This is a bond … that’s never going to broken,” Gardner said. “We’re always going to be tied together now.”

St. George — It was random that Maraleius Birdsong would be the pizza delivery driver who unknowingly walked into his own death almost a year ago. He was working that night for Domino’s Pizza’s Coosaw Creek store.

Birdsong had no idea he was being stalked like prey. He didn’t know that the two teenagers dressed in black had ordered food they had no intention of paying for, according to testimony.

Birdsong was 20 years old when he was robbed and killed March 9. This week, the teens accused of his murder faced a jury. Before the trial could begin, one turned on the other and pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.

In exchange for a lighter sentence, the defendant would testify against his once friend and co-defendant, accused of being the triggerman in Birdsong’s killing.

On Tuesday morning, while the jury waited in a back room to be escorted into the courtroom for opening statements, Jontae Davis, 18, pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and armed robbery and accepted a deal that will put him in prison for 20 years. He then testified against his co-defendant, Stephawn Brown, 19, who is now being tried alone in the case. Brown is charged with murder and armed robbery and faces a possible life sentence, if convicted.

“I decided I just needed to own up for what we’ve done,” said Davis when he testified against Brown Tuesday afternoon. “I felt like the family needed to hear the truth.”

Birdsong’s mother, Teresa Gardner, was sitting in the front row of the Dorchester County Circuit courtroom.

She wiped away tears as Davis described the final moments of her son’s life.

“He was very afraid. He did everything he was told,” Davis said. “When he didn’t give up his phone, Stephawn got mad. He (Birdsong) started to run, and as he was running, Stephawn shot him.”

Davis told the jury that Birdsong told Brown he didn’t have his cellphone on him after Brown demanded it. Davis said the deliveryman turned around to run away and Brown shot him. Later, Davis would learn Birdsong was shot in the back of the head, he said.

“I asked him why he did it. He said because the guy wouldn’t give him the cellphone,” Davis said. “He said he shouldn’t play with him like that.”

Birdsong, who was paying his way through school at Trident Technical College, was delivering an order of wings and cinnamon sticks to the Appian Way apartments in North Charleston. He knocked on the door of the apartment listed on the order, but they told him they hadn’t ordered any food, according to testimony. Birdsong tried another apartment but couldn’t find the person who had called in the order that night around 7:40 p.m. So he started to walk back to his car, while Brown and Davis, waited and watched, according to Davis’ testimony.

Davis told the jury he and Brown had begun making plans to rob someone after school that day. The pair attended Fort Dorchester High School and lived next door to each other, according to Davis.

Later that afternoon, Brown came up with the idea to rob a pizza deliveryman, Davis testified. He watched Brown make the call to the Domino’s Pizza.

While Mark Leiendecker, a public defender for Brown, questioned Davis on the stand, he pointed out that his testimony is the fourth version of the story he’d given. Davis had told the jury he’d lied to police in earlier statements, minimizing his involvement.“You lied in order to save your butt,” Leiendecker said.

During his testimony, Davis admitted he helped plan the armed robbery and was present for the shooting, which contradicts some earlier statements he had made to police.

smiliar thing happened here in New Zealand, the killer was a 12 year old scumbag, he is in for at least 15 years, and its the youngest convected killer in the country.
The country’s youngest killer is Bailey Junior Kurariki who took part in the fatal stabbing of 40-year-old pizza delivery man Michael Choy when he was just 12. He was found not guilty of murder but guilty of manslaughter.

this sort of thing, makes me want capital punishment be returned. why keep them alive, why feed the scumbags., Better yet chuck them in , and dont feed them it would be slow , painful and righteous death to them!

sonocativo · 02-13-2013, 11:06 PM

Sad to say, I had a good friend in High School that didnt graduate with us. He started delivering Pizzas a couple weeks before school was out and someone robbed him and shot him multiple times while he was still in the car. The area I used to live and grew up in was getting pretty bad then, now it is over run by thugs. I wouldnt give anyone a second thought if they walked up to me, that they are up to no good.... always have your guard up !

Free food and clothes in prison? I hear they were fed well and treated way better than jails... But that's just my thinking view on liberal California lol, dunno about the rest though.

Later, I discovered that it's even worse here in Europe though (I used to major in Administration of Justice, or as you would like to call it "Criminal Justice" or the likes).

Which reminds me of old satire picture. Like this one.

OK, to answer your "knowing" question... there are two methods (I think?). One is "knowing" (mea culpa) OR vague "Did you know beforehand?"... which can be pretty difficult in its context, depending on cases and situations.

Which part does Festus belong in Missouri? I'm guessing somewhere near St. Louis for some reason

diehardbiker · 02-14-2013, 06:13 AM

No, I disagreed with it. Its too easy for convicts.

What I want see the most is one stays in "Alcatraz on the rockies" Style til they die naturally. "Alcatraz on the rockies" is known as ADMAX which meaning administrative maximum. Its pretty much like ultra supermax security prison where escape is next to impossible. All prisoners stays in cell 23/7, there never more than 1 prisoner coming out of cell in specific block at same time. This is to prevent from having two prisoners trying to take over the guards or assist other prisoner. Also, it is impossible for any prisoners talking with other prisoners. One remains alone 23 hours each day minimum. This kind of punishment will put one to the edge and found themselves unable to escape from that edge and waiting for death to come can beat shyt out of murderer head, (Like 100% solitary confinement).

The reason I support this is because if one takes a life away from somebody, then why do this person needs to be around with other soul?

Festus is about 45 minutes south of St. Louis City.

Oh ok, I've only touched St. Louis once when I was in youth. I visited the arch (awfully brave of me, I am still heightophobia).

Just asking because my granny's family and uncle Reed and aunt Britta still live in Schell City, some 1-2 hours south of Kansas City on the very western side of Missouri.

My brother moved a while ago to there, apparently he found a decent job at some mental institution for juveniles (not through court cases... put by parents themselves, sorry). Correct terms would be disturbed, abused, deviantized, so on. So yeah, it's a rehab place basically, not a juvenile prison system.

Aha, this is the one. Heartland BHS

Quick question, how do you compare the crime rate between St. Louis and Festus?

Lukin · 02-14-2013, 11:17 AM

Hmm.. 50 stabbed, that reminds of me a Peter O'Tootle movie. Some prostitute, also an agent, was murdered by military officer.

is there such thing as 50 bulletholes? Don't think so.

Grummer · 02-14-2013, 11:27 AM

stabbing is like a psychosis of hatred, shooting is 'sport killing' get bored of it real quick , and 'noise' of it scares them to stop so they flee, that seem to be the reason why psychoologically cracked knife stabbers stabs many times over, they feel the 'meat' of the person they 'hate' well hate, its pure unadultered hatred, like hating with a passion.

but mass shooting means more ppl dead all in one go, mutiple stabbing is one person,
ts like if a go-psych goes out stabbing 50 people , its near impossible because after a the frist scream or so, blood letting, then its hard to grab the next one, as people FlEEING!!!..its like knives cant reach them, unless they can throw ninja stars like a REAL ninjas (which is highly improbable outside Japan) but bullets in gun is easy. point and squeeze is all it takes.thats why they are cocerned about mass shooters _LOTS of LIVES are at risk...way way too much

diehardbiker · 02-14-2013, 11:39 AM

Exactly, even worse Knife is more common murder weapon than any of firearms combined. Same with Bats, some people use bat as weapon, there was no such control on bats. Sad!

news potrays stabbers are freaks of hate, whereas news portray mass shooters are f***ing dangerous nutters on the loose...
its quite different, its not "no complaints" far from it, just different set of dangerous, its more like 'unfortunate soul got too close to dangerous wrath' but 'many victim died in the hands of the criminal' urgh im not sure now, many cases are different but in general victims are portrayed differently too , somewhat.

As I recall, there was news about about mass stabbing at local (Chinese?) kid school some months ago or last year. Also, there was other case where teenager killed some people and injured others some months before, in China I think. Maybe Japan.

I know that they are few rare cases. You do have a good point there.

Yeah, agreed. I think Japan has one of the sickest murders in the world. I think it has to do with the fact that citizen can't own a gun, unless you have some kind of connections with Yakuza (powerful elitist Japanese mafia group, it still controls the politics to this day since 1950s).

Random examples:

Isse Sagawa, a Japanese serial killer knows as the Bois de Boulogne in France, killed and ate his girlfriend in France in 1981. He kept the body parts in a freezer and said he killed her because he had grown tired of her and wanted to eat her.

In July 2011, a big deal was made when dismembered body parts were found in cans at several location in Tennoji Ward, Osaka. One can contained a severed foot. In another can—an 18-liter rectangular can doubled sealed with adhesive tape— a human head and two right feet with the ankles were found in three black plastic bags wrapped in newspapers printed around 2006. The remains of a right hand, a left hand, thighbone, shoulder bone, pelvis and backbone were found in another can, which had been left on a street near a parking lot about 100 meters west of Higashi-Kozu park, where the first can had been found. This first can was found by a person cleaning the park.

In December 2006, a male torso was found in a garbage can on a narrow street in the Shinjuku area of Tokyo. The body had been hacked in half at naval level and beheaded. The left arm was missing from the elbow down. The right had was cut of the wrist. The man who found it told the Asahi Shimbun, “The area around the neck was severed straight across. At first I thought it was a mannequin.” Later a head was found in a park and the lower half of the body was found at private residence that matched the torso.

Ichihashi’s lawyer earlier had said he will plead guilty to rape and unlawfully disposing of the body but denies he intentionally committing murder. The lawyer said Ichihashi said he inadvertently crushed her windpipe when he was trying to prevent her from crying out. In his letter to Hawker’s parents he wrote, “I didn’t understand it was real or not at the time. [I imagined] she would come back as if nothing had happened....But when I realized that she would never come to life. I came back to the real world.”

The victim was first bludgeoned with a wooden sword and then held underwater. In the shower in the bathroom the killer cut his sister into 10 pieces and placed them in three plastic bags and hid them under newspapers in his closet. The killer cleaned up the shower so well that there was not evidence of any blood. His plan was to dump the body parts when he returned from his juku trip. He told his parents not to go in the room where the body parts were kept because there was a dead shark in there.

the endless cases go on and on... BUT it's even longer if it involves non-knife (and non-gun) related violence. some examplse:

A mentally disturbed man throws a bucket of petrol and a lit newspaper into a bus. The ensuing fire killed 6 and injured 14. He kills himself in 1997.

A mentally disturbed Captain Seiji Katagiri forces the Japan Airlines Flight 350 to crash. 24 passengers are killed by the crash. He is arrested on suspicion of professional negligence resulting in deaths, but he isn't indicted due to his insanity.

Students of Japanese universities in Tokyo rape women in a circle Super Free. A organizer Shinichiro Wada and 13 other members are arrested for gang rapes. The estimated number of rape victims are up to 500.

ENDLESS... ENDLESS...

Not sure about US's cases. I wonder whether if some cases are largely classified... as usual, that's just my skeptical worldview.
