Along with the Wichita Horror, this is probably the most horrible American crime the MSM ever decided the sheeple should NOT hear about.
You have to dig into local news even to find a mention.
Reverse the races, and it would be Rodney King times the Duke lacrosse team to the Nth power in the MSM.
Correct. However, they can't quite keep it covered up thanks to blogs and the internet. Many, many people are following the trials.
Found it at Wikipedia...
Re: news blackout, you got that right. Can you imagine the uproar that would have followed if the races were reversed? Even apart from any racial aspect, this story should have been covered just because of the exceptional level of violence and depravity. Such crimes are rare so that is all the more reason the “news” media should be on it.
As far as this slime getting the death penalty I am relieved. It doesn’t bring those kids back but it gives the families what they wanted. His time on death row presumably will be more harsh than it would be in regular prison. He has plenty of solitary time now to think of how he got there. If he is so smart and had such potential, as his foster family says, then he might just be regretting his actions now.
I wouldn't have never heard of young Jesse's death had it not been for Free Republic.
