For those of you in the Mid Atlantic, this just happened last night during the Frederick County Fair. I haven't seen the Snapchat video they took but this will set a precedent for a few things I believe... https://wjla.com/news/local/police-man-dead-after-being-attacked-by-teens-at-great-frederick-fair
I'm thinking we need to start looking at something like the scarlet letter for parents who raise kids this fucking stupid.
"But DeShawn is a good boy. He was getting his life together and working on his rap career. He never hurt nobody"
Is one of those crime tropes It cracks me up when people at a crime scene just cant believe it because "this is a good/quiet neighborhood" like geography controls human behavior.
What gets me is people can find it within themselves to record video, yet, can’t find it within themselves to help the man. That’s a disgrace of modern humanity.
Same with offenders. It’s beyond me how one can commit an offense against a child, can’t be around schools and playgrounds, yet, is allowed to have children.
Are y'all finally seein' the writing on the walls after all these years? Halle-fucking-lujah. Just clean the frickin' gene pool already. God-damn-it.
Looks like the 16 year old will be eligible to be charged and tried as an adult. Depending on how they change the charges in response to the man dying, the 15 year old very well could be eligible for a lifetime of free room and board. People make foolish decisions in their youth and often deserve second chances, but intentional acts of wanton violence on innocents at this level...
Completely agree. As a further disgrace to the times we live in though, a local man intervened in a violent fight among teenagers awhile back... and was charged with assaulting a minor in the process. I'm sure most of us wouldn't hesitate but as further evidence to the disgrace of modern humanity as you put it, a number of people are going to be concerned about their physical, criminal, and civil vulnerability as opposed to doing what's right. I do wonder if the video may have been recorded by an accomplice though.
You don't hear about too many Nobel Prize winners or successful cardiologists who began their careers with a slight stumble in juvie when they were a youngin'. Not saying its NEVER happened.....buuuuuut.
