#SayHisName Trends After Media Doesn’t Report On Murder Of 5-Year-Old Cannon Hinnant
LaCorte News ^ | 8/13/2020 | Penka Arsova

The mainstream media is being called out for skipping the murder of the 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant that took place over the weekend.

The story: On Sunday, 25-year-old Darius Sessoms, who is black, reportedly walked up to Cannon Hinnant, who is white, and shot him in the head at point-blank. At the time, Hinnant was in the front yard of his family’s house, riding his bike. His two sisters, ages seven and eight, were also there and saw the shooting, according to witnesses.

Sessoms left the scene and was arrested Monday. He has been charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond at the Wilson County jail. According to Daniel Horowitz of Conservative Review Sessoms had several felony convictions on his record.

He rode on the neighbors lawn. So he killed him.

“He rode on the neighbors lawn. So he killed him.”

Wow. That’s terrible. The way I understood it (I just assumed, I guess), was that the kid was in his own yard.

Last time I had checked (yesterday), the stories were all local affiliates of the major networks. Couldn’t fund anything on majors like CNN. It happened Sunday afternoon. By Monday it should have been national news (based on nothing except if races were flipped).

MSM- Enemy Of The People.

Horrible crime, but it should not be censored.

The fact the MSM is censoring should be a wake up call to people.

WHY did he do it?

My cousin in Wilson said, sad it was drugs . Sessoms had dinner with the family Friday night.

Did he shoot him? Yes. Murder in the first degree.

Which is exactly what he has been charged with. In jail, no bond.

Hang him.

I don't care how they execute him. The aggravating part is that the way things go I'll probably be ready for retirement before he finally meets his maker.

The media is deliberately and intentionally suppressing this, with willfull knowledge in order to promote racial hatred and to justify eliminating Whites.

They deserve no slack. They want this country destroyed.

I tried to post the story on my facebook page #SayHIsName and brief description of the little boy and then URL to the story(URL ABOVE IN FR) and FB blocked it saying it didn’t meet community standards. Seriously? The murder of white boy shot in the head by a black neighbor and it doesn’t meet community standards.

I first learned of the murder of this innocent child from a Facebook post. I just went onto Facebook and found the friend who had posted it, and saw that she had posted several articles from many different sources regarding this murder. Also, I put the name Cannon Hinnant into the Facebook search and it came up with many more posts about this murder. I also shared it and so far nothing from FB.

No civilized society allows a dangerous animal to live in their midst. Letting this animal live is warped and a warped sense of justice.

He's not "living in our midst", he's living in the jailhouse. Until his trial date, after which he'll be sentenced.

Because that is how it actually works in a civilized society.

I don’t blame her.

I suppose the only positive thing that can be said about this is that the boy did not suffer.
