Sounds like a hate crime to me - two lesbians beating a straight they disapprove of.

The 16-year-old Finney High School student said her lover Sharon Patterson suggested killing Bertha Atkins because of her disapproval of their relationship.

So simply disapproving of a homosexual relationship warrants you being killed.

My my. Wonder where that little seed got planted?

Oh and isn't this a hate crime?

And the ACLU (and others) are worried there is too much "God" in our society......

They would be aquitted in the UK probably, where the official establishment has already gone over the edge.... has Detroit?

How come they aren't on the Springer show?

"There was a claw hammer that was wedged in her face. Specifically, it pierced through her upper lip and her tongue," said Lowe."

That's some pretty serious hammer weilding for such a young girl.She has the stomach to smack an old lady in the face hard enough to lodge a hammer there?! Far out!

"Collier said that after the killing, Patterson (pictured, right) convinced her to go see the movie "Jeepers Creepers" to take their mind off of what happened, the station reported."

Catching a flick to take your mind off wasting granny with a hammer then torching her?!!

Trully mindless violence.Demonic.

I'm surprised the Detroit police were able to pick up on that clue.
