From Fox News:
Prosecutors on Tuesday charged two teenagers accused of gunning down an Australian student in Oklahoma for the “fun of it” with first-degree murder, and a third teen with being an accessory.
Officials say 22-year-old Christopher Lane, who was visiting the U.S. on a baseball scholarship at East Central University, was jogging along a road in Duncan, Okla., after visiting his girlfriend on Friday when he was shot in the back, allegedly by the teens.
Terri Moore from the Stephens County Courthouse says 16-year-old Chancey Allen Luna and 15-year-old James Francis Edwards Jr. were charged as adults with first-degree murder. Both are being held without bond.
Bond was set at $1 million for 17-year-old Michael Jones, who allegedly drove the vehicle carrying the other suspects. He was charged with the use of a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and accessory to murder after the fact. Jones is considered a youthful offender but will be tried in adult court.
Prosecutor Jason Hicks called the boys "thugs" in court, saying Luna was sitting in the rear seat of a car when he pulled the trigger on a .22 caliber revolver and shot Lane once in the back. Hicks said Jones was driving the vehicle and Edwards was in the passenger seat.
Edwards has had run-ins with the law previously and had been in court Friday, the day of the killing, to sign documents related to his juvenile probation.
"I believe this man is a threat to the community and should not be let out," Hicks said as he requested no bond for Edwards. "He thinks it's all a joke."

The murder victim is white and two of the thugs are black and one thug is white.
So, will Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson Jr. and all the racists who marched for Trayvon Martin also march and raise money on the behalf of Christopher Lane?
The country's biggest racist, President Obama has been silent. If President Obama had a son, would he look lie Christopher Lane?
Or will these thugs be supported by their family who will say they were just poor misunderstood kids?
Will the media make this front page news or lead the news broadcasts? Well, Channel 13 of Las Vegas already has told us that by not running the story in the main part of the news and refuses to put the story on it's web site. But then they have a black reporter, Rikki Cheese who is one of the Valley's race baiters, so it shouldn't be much of a surprise.
People wonder why we have and always will have a racial divide and we will have racism and the Trayvon Martin and Christopher Lane cases are example why racism is alive and well in the United States. Black racism and white liberal racism is alive and well in the United States

why are you looking for black to stand up, when it should be your nation of people out crying
ReplyDeleteThe outrage in the Trayvon Martin case was sparked by the fact that George Zimmerman was lightly questionened, and sent on his way. It was only the public outrage (followed by media circus) that even got the man in court.
ReplyDeleteThese guys were arrested when found, and are in jail. Nobody--NOBODY--is defending them, or lionizing them. EVERYONE finds the case to be horrifying and disturbing. WHERE is the analogy here?
