Gothamist ^ | Dec 22, 2013 10:25 AM | Jen Chung

Yesterday, authorities announced that four men had been arrested in the fatal carjacking of a NJ lawyer who had finished shopping at a mall. Essex County Prosecutor Carolyn Murray credited “good old-fashioned police work,” using tips, forensic evidence and the power of local, state and federal authorities. And it turns out that one of the suspects was caught because the vehicle used to drive to the mall was his mother’s car. […]

The suspects, who face charges of felony murder carjacking conspiracy and weapons possession, are Karif Ford, 31; Basim Henry, 32; Kevin Roberts, 35; all of Newark; and Hanif Thompson, 29, of Irvington. It is not clear who was the gunman, but authorities say all were present. The (New York) Post notes that the four have broken the law in the past …

Still refusing to say in words, the vicious perpetrators in this, like so so many other incidents all over this country, are BLACK!

Before the police sprain something patting themselves on the back, lets see the rap sheets for these murderers. Chances are excellent they should have been locked up somewhere instead of preying on decent citizens.

From the article: “All four — who face possible life sentences — have rap sheets stretching back years that include multiple burglary and drug counts.
Thompson, who has done more than a dozen stints in the Essex County Jail, was released on Dec. 11 after serving time on a burglary charge.
Roberts has been arrested 13 times on narcotics and weapons offenses. Both Ford and Henry were sent to prison in 2003 — Ford for burglary and Henry for bank robbery, records show.
Henry finished federal prison time eight months ago for a robbery in which he put a gun to the head of a Union Township bank employee.”

Also the photos indicate all four perps are black.

It gets more ridiculous ...

The one who recently served time for bank robbery was caught easily after the prior robbery because he parked his own car outside the bank and left the key in the ignition with the engine running. WTF?

I wonder if when they broke down the door and stormed his house he was wearing a red plaid pajama onesie and drinking hot cocoa.

Read what I wrote carefully. I said “in words.”

Of course there are pictures! The complicit and PC media here in the US cannot possibly hope to hide them because the foreign media, the actual truth media, is not so PC gun shy.

The problem with this ‘pictures-only’ style (actually a rigid PC style guide) is that so often promulgation of the ‘story’ is by radio, etc. where pictures cannot and will not be shown. It is left up to the reader, hearer to investigate to find the facts that should have been first out of the gate.

From: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3104008/posts
The homicide rate in the U.S. is around average. Russia’s homicide rate is four times ours; rates in Africa average around five times ours; the rate in Brazil is five times ours; Mexico, which has stringent gun control laws, has double our homicide rate; murder rates in the Caribbean approximate those in Africa. It is true that Western European countries in general have lower rates than we do, but that is mostly because African-Americans commit murders at eight times the rate of whites. The murder rate in Norway is very low, but it is indistinguishable from the rate among Norwegian-Americans. It is also noteworthy that the homicide rate in the U.S. today is only one-half what it was in the early 1990s. That decline, which has occurred during a time when gun laws have generally been liberalized, is never addressed by gun control advocates. — John Hinderaker

He apparently didn’t anticipate that there would be a dead victim and public outrage that would demand an investigation.

If the plan had gone smoothly, the authorities wouldn’t have bothered looking into it, and it wouldn’t have mattered whose car it was.

“Still refusing to say in words, the vicious perpetrators in this, like so so many other incidents all over this country, are BLACK!”

While I totally agree with you that where BLACK perpetrators are involved your supposition is usually the case, with this event, the referenced publication has posted the mugshots of all four of these animals along with their victims. My concern now, irrespective of their common ethnicity, just how many years they will be allowed to live while the “legal system” extracts as much money from the taxpayers it they can.

I only know that AG Holder refuses to prosecute hate crimes when the crime involves black-on-white participants. Call it racists, whatever you want. It is true.

Just how close is America to a major race war?

Apparently these disgusting "race-based" murders of non-"blacks" are being ignored as to their seriousness by almost all the media: radio, tv, newspapers, magazines, etc., while a disgusting POS like Mandela has gotten worshiped by these bastards . . . and no one is slightly interested in the "blackness" of their crimes.

I know, but when you get in your car tomorrow, if you have to got to work before Christmas and listen to drive time radio, you’re more than likely to only hear ‘four subjects have been apprehended’.

Busted NJ carjack suspects have long rap sheets
Why blame the cops? Blame the judges and the liberal justice system for continuously letting these animals out of jail.

Amen!

At some point these "men" should be declared incorrigible and be allowed to perform their final "air dance" (hanged until dead) on public TV.

I'm sick of paying to feed, clothe, house and provide medical care for vermin.

Where is JJ and rev. al?

Oh wait the perps families do not have the money for a rent a mob payment for them to be involved so unless they can come up with some liberal group to assist them they are on their own.

Show me the money and we will supply the mob.
