I disagree with and abhor the victim's politics, but he surely didn't deserve to be murdered like that. I've been and stayed in Georgetown, DC, many times. That's a fairly heinous and uncommon crime for that upscale section of town. Hopefully justice will be served.
Nobody deserves to be killed like that, irrespective of their politics.
All this hand-wringing over the perpetrators of these crimes sickens me. I dont mind the system being biased in favor of the defendent, thats fine - if sometimes frustrating. What I object to is the way it seems to be biased AGAINST the victims.
