FULL TITLE: Black teens are charged with a HATE CRIME after live-streaming torture of white disabled man who they held prisoner for days before he escaped - as cops reveal they have shown NO remorse

The four black friends believed to be behind the disturbing torture of a white special needs man in a Facebook live video have been identified and charged with committing a hate crime.

Jordan Hill, 18; Tesfaye Cooper, 18; and sisters Birttany, 18, and Tanisha Covington, 24, were charged Thursday morning with aggravated kidnapping, aggravated unlawful restraint, aggravated battery and a hate crime, according to the Cook County State's Attorney's Office. Hill was also charged with robbery and possession of a stolen motor vehicle. He, Cooper and Brittany Covington face additional charges of residential burglary.

The four are set to face a judge for the first time Friday afternoon at 1pm Central Time for a bond hearing.

Chicago authorities revealed more about the disturbing incident at a Thursday afternoon press conference.

Why no word from Obama on this? He never passes up an opportunity to insert himself in racially based hate crimes?

I really dislike the designation of ‘hate’ crime. What they did was kidnapping and torture. Who cares what the motive was?

If there are going to be such things as hate crimes, it should be applied equally when a racist attack happens to a white person.

I hope he does. It would show hypocrisy and anti-white racism.

One thing that glaringly stood out was the absolute smirking idiocy on the face of the males. And the female feral has a baby. This story makes me physically ill.

You probably won’t have to worry about it for long. As soon as black people start getting charged more than whites, it will be deemed as racist law and will be abolished.

Is this crime being studiously ignored by the SPLC?

I agree. It was a hate crime without any doubt but airing that shiite on facebook elevated it to the level of terrorism. A prosecutor might have trouble proving it though.

If you want to see real riots, try trying these buttholes and not convicting them.

We’ve had it with these vermin.
