Court TV to air 'Wichita horror'

One of the most frustrating parts of this vile, vicious crime is that at one point the surviving woman had the opportunity to get one of the guns, because one of the $cumbuckets had left it on the floor, but she said she didn't make a grab for it because she wasn't sure how to shoot it. If she had gotten it and used it, just maybe they all would have had a fighting chance.

What's even more amazing is that I know several women who are professionally successful, intelligent, are in their 40s, and own their own homes. When I try to talk each of them into getting a gun for protection, they outright dismiss it. ("I could NEVER get a gun...I could NEVER shoot anyone...It's TOO DANGEROUS", etc...). They are under the naive belief that ADT and Slomin's will save them if the home alarms are tripped by an intruder. Sad to say, if they ever do change their minds and want a gun, it will be because it is too late and they've already become rape victims or victims of other violent crimes.

Hey, you're welcome. :`)

I've been waiting a long time for this trial to start and I'll be following it all the way through to the end (death sentence).

And thanks to Court TV, this horrid case might finally receive the national attention it's due.

Sadly as time goes by people will start to recognize that the black population is far more racist, just like the hispanic race is far more prejudice than the white race.

Imagine being a white person walking alone through harlem, after a day you would be dead. Yet if you were black going through my home state Montana, nothing would happen to you if you were black.

I could not find any info on this on the www.courttv.com site. A search for 'carr' gave 19 hits, but none were about this case.

Can anyone provide a valid URL?

I just read the story and now I'm sick to my stomach.

Thank you for the link to that stunning story-

You're welcome -- glad you were apparently able to stomach it.

Not that they needed one, but I e-mailed a heads-up to FOX News this morning, requesting that they give some much-needed attention to these hate crimes - and to the dearth of "mainstream" media coverage thereof.

wow...court tv---good news!

[Joe Brower]

"Hang 'em high" bump. No mercy to be wasted on such as these.

[Palladin]

Another bump...this one for the victims. May they rest in peace. And may the vicious scum who did this burn in hell forever.
