For Kim Ferrell, the pain continues. Or maybe that should read the “Payne” continues.

Ferrell is the mother of Faith Sinclair, the Ridley High honor student who was run down as she tried to cross Chester Pike in Sharon Hill last August. The driver who snuffed out Faith’s life – and then fled the scene - could not kill Ferrell’s faith in the system. But it is certainly being tested.

She waited patiently as police slowly built their case. A “person of interest” became the focus of the case early on. The black Mercedes that was believed to be the vehicle that ran Faith down was found. It had the exact damage police said they would expect to find.

Eventually, after two seemingly endless months, a suspect was arrested. Lemuel Payne, the owner of the Mercedes, was charged in the hit-run case.

Payne has been free on bail, under electronic home monitoring. He is not supposed to leave his house.

So he likely was somewhat surprised when he was met at a Philadelphia nightspot Saturday night by Delaware County detectives. Payne, still wearing his ankle bracelet, was taken into custody.

The Delaware County District Attorney’s Office believes it is not the first time Payne violated the conditions of his bail and monitoring. They say he also was out on the town back on Dec. 19, as well as on St. Patrick’s Day.

Payne is now sitting in Delaware County Prison. The D.A.’s Office will be in court next week seeking to revoke his bail. Payne is due to go on trial on May 11.

Kim Ferrell will be there. Not for Payne, but for Faith, to make sure she is not forgotten.

It’s her way of keeping the “Faith.”
