A disturbing story emerged back in March but crucial information about the story is still ignored by the MSM. Two teens in Rochester, New York set a 53-year-old mentally ill man on fire, ultimately killing him.
The Rochester teenagers who were accused of setting the 53-year-old man on fire are now facing murder charges after the victim died from his injuries.
The boys — ages 14 and 16 — were initially arrested and charged with arson and assault on after allegedly pouring a flammable liquid on Steven Amenhauser and lighting him on fire in his home.
Those charges have now been upgraded after police said Amenhauser died.
In a rare instance, authorities have released the names of the juveniles allegedly behind the murder of 53-year-old Steven Amenhause that occurred on March 12th.
On March 12th, police say that 16-year-old Zayvion Perry and 14-year-old Adriel Riley Jr. had doused Amenhause with a flammable accelerant as he was sitting in a chair inside of his Lyell Avenue apartment and set him on fire.
Interestingly, unlike many past stories written in The New York Times and USA Today, the races of the involved parties were not mentioned. In 2021, that’s rare.
It turns out, the two teens are black and the now-deceased mentally ill man was white. I will ask a simple question: what if the roles were reversed? If two white teens randomly set a mentally ill black man on fire, killing him — it would unequivocally be deemed an act of racism.
Riots would break out, social media would go to war, buildings would burn, and talking points would appear around the clock. Rochester journalist and radio host Bob Lonsberry reports that the two teens instructed the victim to tell authorities they were “white” as they burned him alive.
The Daily Wire confirmed Lonsberry’s report. The demand to lie about the teens’ skin color delivers a strong hint that the assault and murder was possibly racially motivated.
While the order does not definitively prove racism, it’s more evidence toward the label than most incidents the national media has called undoubtedly horrible acts.
Police said he had second-and third-degree burns over 70 percent of his body.
With Riley being 14-years-old, he will be prosecuted as a juvenile offender; and since Perry is 16-years-old, he will be prosecuted as an adolescent offender.
BLM taught me a huge minority of blacks is violently dangerous.
Stay away. Stay safe.
That too; they’re on the side of leftist liberals.
They’re being TAUGHT to hate white people - all ENCOURAGED by teachers and the media.
They all have this blood on their hands.
It’s only a matter of time before this becomes far more common.
We will be the new South Africa and Zimbabwe with only 13% black.....
This would never happen if only we would give them reparations.
One might almost suggest collusion on the part of the press.
They should have been charged with attempted murder from the very start.
That was intent to kill.
General Mark Milley wants to apologize to the public for this episode of White Rage.
That’s exactly it...
More fruits of the Dem Plantation.
if they’re old enough to play with fire, they’re old enough to be tried as adults for premeditated murder
Left Rochester 11 years ago at 44, grew up in the 10th ward and lived in the west side suburbs as an adult. Sad and disturbing to hear how it has become, and still have family there. Real law enforcement is needed to take out the trash.
we’d never know who the kids were just by lookin at their names...(s/off)
Some things are missing ?...wonder how’d the kids get into the guy’s apartment?
Zayvion and Adriel sound like the names of demons.
Seems Amenhauser just passed, the charges were recently upgraded to murder on both boys or will they be charged as men?
