Teens Held Without Bond in Girl's Slaying
Carthage — Tight security surrounds three teens charged with killing a 12-year-old girl in her Moore County home last week.
Van Roger Smith Jr., 16, Sherrod Nicholas Harrison, 19, and Michael Graham Currie, 18, all of Cameron, have been charged with first-degree murder and breaking and entering in the death of Emily Elizabeth Haddock. Emily was dead Friday in her home on Marks Road outside of Vass, authorities said.
She had stayed home from school with strep throat and was alone when someone broke into the house and, surprised to find someone inside, shot her several times with a .22-caliber handgun, authorities said. Two of the teens lived on Marks Road about six miles from the Haddock home.
Harnett County authorities located a stolen .22-caliber handgun on Monday in a car with stolen plates in the Carolina Hills area of the county. The gun had been stolen last Thursday from a home, and authorities said it might be the weapon used in the slaying. Perry Ross Schiro, 19, of Cameron, was charged with burglary, larceny and possession of stolen property in connection with the gun.
One of the three teens charged in the slaying also is considered a "person of interest" in an attempted break-in last Friday about a mile from the Haddock home, authorities said. The three teens made their first court appearance Tuesday morning and were appointed attorneys.
A bond hearing is scheduled for Wednesday in District Court, but authorities have declined to disclose the time of the hearing for security reason. The teens were being held without bond Tuesday in the Moore County Detention Center.

And they’ll have charlatans such as J. Jackson and Sharpton to encourage and validate their belief that Whitey is to blame for whatever is not going well in their lives.
Nope, not a hate crime.
Just the oppressed taking what they consider rightfully theirs.
If the colors were reversed it would be.
Looks like more than 'new kid in the neighborhood hazing' to me.
Guys, this is Moore County. No gang bangers here.
Just look at them. No remorse in their eyes. They’re sociopaths.
You misunderstand.....since any crime committed by a white on a minority can now be considered a “hate crime” (which is often done)....likewise such crimes committed by minorities on whites are “hate crimes”
Liberals tend to find reasons why apparent hate crimes are not hate crimes.
Until hate crimes laws are equally enforced, these laws are always a joke. Should we have to form a White Civil Rights movement to see equal enforcement of laws?
Well, this happened in the Raleigh/Durham area. Another crime with three alleged perpetrators and one victim (and no doubt we have victim this time), just the latest in a long history of children being victimized by adults and older teens.
I’m waiting for the Duke Gang of 88 to take out full page ads decrying the continuing victimization of children by adults, and anticipate large demonstrations and many outside activist descending upon the area. And, of course, 24/7 media coverage for at least a week or two. I’m sure CNN is blanketing their programs with the story as I type.
They could have not robbed the house in the first place.
That little girl was no threat to them.
Presumably she saw their face and they were responsible for a string of robberies in the neighborhood
They thought so little of that 12 year old girl that they would rather kill her than allow her to possibly ID them.
No doubt they are scum but they did not kill her because she was white, nor did they kill her to intimidate a group of people.
There is no need for the hate crime designation in the crime. They committed murder, pure and simple. When you are committing a crime and you kill someone simply because the only threat the represent to you is that they might identify you then it’s murder.
How on Earth have we come to the point where a crime such as that described here is not murder. I might be wrong, but in my mind it’s the kind of crime the death penalty was invented to handle.
As a matter of fact I don’t care if one of them was only 16, he took part in a heinous crime and there is absolutely no reason that he should not pay the ultimate price for it.
“In the United States in 2005, 37,460 white females were sexually assaulted or raped by a black man, while between zero and ten black females were sexually assaulted or raped by a white man.
What this means is that every day in the United States, over one hundred white women are raped or sexually assaulted by a black man.”

Since some are mentioning crime trends and stats. When I first heard about the Duke Rape Hoax, I was highly skeptical because I knew white on black rape was a rare crime. But I didn’t realize that it was almost non-existent as Justice Department stats for 2005 indicate.
By it’s very definition ALL violent crimes are “Hate” crimes. Love does not produce crime (excluding crimes of passion).
Just a thought...
However, this is not a story about black kids murdering a white girl.
Instead it is a story of a girl being murdered.
It would be no less tragic if the girl was black and the offenders white.
It would be no less tragic if the girl was black and the offenders black.
It would be no less tragic if the girl was white and the offenders white.
So, therefore, Race Does not make this case any more tragic or brutal than any other murder of a child.
Time for jessie jack as* and, pay me the money and I’ll be there, al sharpy to be out in force and claim that these animals were only missguided chilren and should not be tried for murder.
And they are correct, they should not be tried, they should be shot at dawn.

“So, therefore, Race Does not make this case any more tragic or brutal than any other murder of a child.”
But the race of the perpetrators and the victim in this case does make it fall into one of the most common categories of crime. Perhaps a category that needs more study and attention, since it’s so common? We just don’t see much white on black crime, as my post #51 and the link indicate.
Pretty ugly way to act, imo....
You can expect more of the same attitude as long as blacks continue to commit homicides at a rate 7 times higher than whites. Not to mention other violent crimes.
Now that's what's really ugly.
Just hang all three of them.
