Police Charge 3 in Beating Death of Des Moines Man (Another one)
WOI-TV ^ | August 30, 2013 | Sabrina Ahmed

Des Moines police arrested two people Friday. 18-year-olds James Shorter and Nathaniel Russell. They're looking for a third, 18-year-old Kent Tyler. They've been charged with murdering 40-year-old Richard Daughenbaugh.

The victim was brutally beat by multiple people in this parking lot.

"Almost a mob mentality took over the crowd," Sgt. Jason Halifax said.

He later died in the hospital Sunday night. During the fight, a couple tried to break it up, but instead two girls stole the woman's cell phone and a man beat up the good Samaritan. Leprese Derrian Williams was charged in connection with assaulting him.

Friday was Robert Daughenbaugh's funeral. We spoke to the family today. They said, with all of the questions they this week, now a few are answered.

Police say this is a random attack. There were some members of the Heavy Hitters Gang, a growing problem in Des Moines, there on Sunday.

"There were members of that gang involved in this assault, but it wasn't as though Mr. Daughenbaugh was a target of that gang," Halifax said....

Des Moines' "gang problem" was apparent as long ago as when Russ Van Dyke was still anchoring at 6:00. At the time, I wasn't paying a lot of attention to the political aspects of life in Iowa, but looking back it was a pretty good indicator of how screwed up things were going to be from then on. As long as the troubles were kept within the tribes, it was no big deal to the rest of the state until someone wandered too far from Vets when attending HS basketball or wrestling tournaments, or got a jolt seeing downtown for the first time in a while.

The first inkling I ever had that the city manager form of local government was a crock was back when the police chief - I believe it was Maus at the time - seemed oddly mealy-mouthed about the fact that murders in Des Moines were becoming common enough to become standard reporting on the local 6:00 news. Only after seeing a bit more of life did I finally figure out what the score likely was.

(I'm living it now in a different part of the carcass.)

Gangbangers need to be rounded up and treated as enemy combatants.

That be racist doncha know. They should be shot on sight.

I’d like to see a bounty on them, but that’s even more unlikely, so designation as enemy combatants will have To suffice.

Well, maybe, but if we're talking actual ideas that would take a strongly felt public will to implement...

When facing the "we can't deport 40 million illegals" comment, my response was to "put a bounty on them". If the situation were to get more serious, the bounty on some gangbangers could be "dead or alive"

Between the two groups to be addressed, just think of the budding cottage industry which would train bounty hunters, and the subsequent rush of thousands of jobs this would create.

You’re an idiot to ask about ethnicity.

Amish, of course.

Iowa and especially around Des Moines is a traffic hub...between Chicago, Minneapolis,St Louis, Memphis, etc....

and it is Iowa after all....known for throwing he country into a Marxist hands just so they can sell their cheap corn and make something, anything from it...just to sell it...

sorry, but I doesn't impress me......their farms are lovely, green on beautiful rolling hills but where are the brains?...the conscience?

oh they want us to know about it but our media doesn't want us to know about it....

normalcy bias......everything is just about the same as it ever was, bs to that...

people...don't be victims...don't be around any groups of suspect groups, not even two of them...two makes a gang...

if you see them head your way, head the other way...

they way they have been killing themselves off, they won't last....but we must...

if you can , carry protective items...keep you car full of gas....know where you are....

Just because Iowa is in the middle of nowhere doesn’t mean that it hasn’t been perverted to the Left. It is just as PC as New York, California, Illinois and Massachusetts...

...ans as if that weren’t bad enough, Iowa’s college football teams stink, too...
