Perhaps Starbucks should modify their message. Where is Jesse and Al?

He looks like such a good “Kid”,.

Aspiring...rapper....etc...etc..etc.

Might want to reserve judgment on this one. He says he was attacked by a group, and he appears to have injuries that back up his story.

There may be a gang-turf angle to this one.

The arrested man, Shelby Crawford, was on probation in connection with "a juvenile gun case" when he was hired by the CPS to be a "Safe Passage worker."

The school he was protecting serves sixth- and seventh-graders. The girl who was shot was 17, and was not a student at the school that employed him.

So very, very much is wrong with that entire situation - hiring an 18 year old punk already on probation as a “safe” passage worker who skipped out on the job and ended up shooting and leaving for dead on of the kids he was supposed to keep safe. Motive was most likely sex and/or drugs.

Man these crossing guards are strict these days! LOL
