A suspect has been identified in connection to the murder of a UCLA graduate student in Hancock Park.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, 31-year-old Shawn Laval Smith is wanted in connection to Brianna Kupfer's death. Kupfer was found dead by a customer at a luxury furniture store during daytime last week. Authorities believe her death was the result of a random attack.

Smith has been seen in Pasadena, Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Covina and other parts of California, according to LAPD.

LAPD believes Smith is armed and dangerous. Anyone near Smith is asked to call 911, instead of approaching him, LAPD warns.

Yeah but for every white girl killed by a black guy there’s 100 black girls killed by white men… (sarc)

Actually zero

“Stand for justice,” read the graphic on Kupfer’s LinkedIn cover page.

Suddenly a lot of folks are wound up about a killing. Where were all of you before when other folks got killed? Just now getting interested in stopping this? Not going to happen. You wouldn’t do anything before you can NOT do anything now. You’re going to get mad at me, but it is the truth.

What a relief to know that this wasn’t terrorism committed by those awful homegrown white supremacists, who are the greatest threat to American society.

He’s been taught by the Left that he has legitimate grievances that justify anything he does.

LAPD identifies Brianna Kupfer’s suspected killer as a career criminal who was out on $1K bail: She texted friend to say ‘a man was giving her a bad vibe’ minutes before she was murdered and suspect was seen in 7-Eleven 30 minutes later

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10416901/LAPD-identifies-Brianna-Kupfers-suspected-killer-Shawn-Laval-Smith.html

EXCERPT:

“Suspected killer was spotted about 30 minutes later at a convenience store in the area”

(The “30 minutes later” is a time span after Brianna had texted her friend, according to the DailyMail article.)

(Another source reported: Brianna Kupfer was found approx. 15 minutes after she had texted a friend re the “bad vibe” about the perp. The perp had been in the store where Brianna Kupfer worked, for at least 5 minutes before Brianna texted her friend.)

He’ll be out on bail tomorrow.

Bail? Bail? He'll be released on recognizance by some wacko LA judge. That's assuming that Garcon will even press charges against the perp.

Personally, I'm still hoping that some smart LAPD officer will take the matter out of the court system's hands.

I read that Garcon said that “we can’t prosecute our way out of inequity”....so I guess until all criminals have EQUITY with law abiding citizens there won’t be prosecutions?

His job is to prosecute - not to decide if there is “equity” or not. These victims have NO equity.

We can thank Soros and brain dead voters for this...and maybe even that poor girl who probably voted rat.

Fair question, and I’ll be happy to answer it.

First off, I’m not all that wound up by this. It’s sad to be sure. Yet I bear no guilt and not much anger. I don’t like that someone’s daughter is in a morgue when it was entirely preventable. Listening to my very simple message would have prevented this: if you live in the deep blue areas, you need to leave and move to America. It is not safe to live in the deep blue areas. You will be a victim. You will be unhappy. You will suffer. You will be treated worse than dirt by the so-called “leadership” in these areas. Don’t waste your time voting: you’ll lose. Don’t “make a stand”: you’ll just end up a victim. Hit the road, Jack and don’t come back!

So go ahead and do a search on my last 1000 posts. You will notice that I make this point again, and again, and again. It’s a simple strategy and it works. I believe it and I live it.

All that said, I can’t help people who delude themselves and think, well, it won’t happen to me. Things really aren’t that bad. I’ll be OK. We have plenty of 20th century history that says otherwise.

So, I actually am doing something and I’m gratified that the thousands of people who are like me who are saying “it’s time to go” are having some impact. Don’t believe me? Go price a u-haul in LA. Go price a house in Idaho. The trickle has become a flood and I pray it becomes a tsunami of decent people voting with their feet and leaving these leftist hellholes.

So I’m not mad at you at all. I’m already doing something, and will continue.

Hollywood, academia, and activists all share in the guilt for her murder.

Movies, TV shows, college professors, the SPLC and ADL and NAACP, AOC and Obama, have long been stoking black rage, then directing that rage at whites, telling blacks that all their problems are due to white racism.

This killer was a low IQ loser, but perhaps initially not too dangerous. It was the above suspects that enraged him, turned him savage, then sicced him on Brianna.

"We will find this vicious criminal, we will get him arrested, and we will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law," Councilman Paul Koretz said . . . .

Will you, though? I think that’s Gascon’s call, and he disagrees.
