He sure looked Black to me.
He had the good sense not to talk with the reporters.
Bless his heart. I do not envy his situation, with the know-it-all neighbor, Jenkins, who is running for office announcing to every TV reporter, over and over, "Yes, he loves his mother, she lives there alone, he's only there once or twice a month." Why doesn't he just stick a knife in their backs? What an idiot.
In this one narrow sense only, it's a relief that this was a black-on-black crime. Cannot imagine the uproar otherwise.
