Pine Hills, AKA, Crime Kills.
When I worked at the treatment center for troubled teens, most of my kids were ‘bangerz’ from Pine Hills.
Sad, miserable, stupid kids. Six of them died before they reached 18, at least a dozen are now doing long prison terms for grand theft auto, rape, and first degree murder.
As a double whammy, I’m friends with someone who was related to the reporter who was murdered. Small world.
A promising life cut short by a stupid, dead culture.
My experience in a career with teens is the really hard ones get that way young. By 8th grade they start showing bad signs.
I’d say at 18 this thug was already incorrigible.

Pine Hills was an old stomping ground for me in the early 80s. I don’t recall anyone there other than white middle-class. Of course, I was a young, immature, military person then. This article actually shocked me since my best friend was from there. I suppose it’s like Ludowici. Ga. Times have racially changed!
Pine Hills used to be a nice affluent neighborhood in the 70’s/early 80’s. Forced busing/manipulation and subsidization of school zones to Evans HS started slide to Crime Hills. Diversity wins I guess.
