This crime was horrific. These men are so evil.
The residents of the apartment house who alerted the police are to be commended. Especially Christian Taylor, who could have called 911 anonymously but instead went down in person to the police station.
Reasonable doubt is rapidly disappearing, but we have yet to see if racial doubt will play a role.
My letter to Ms. Foulston
da@sedgwick.gov
Ms. Foulston you have said that in the case of the two Carr brothers that there is no hate crime statute.
However your party, the democrat party and its organizations used the deaths of Matthew Shepard and James Byrd as rallying cries for the NEED for hate crime laws. So why in an equally, perhaps more heinous murder of several whites, is there no rallying cry for hate crime enhancements? Has your party, the democratic party, dropped its advocacy for the existence of such laws?
And as I understand it there IS an enhancement in the state of Kansas for bias crimes during the penalty phase. When this was posed to you, your response was that it is a death penalty case so there is no need. Perhaps, but wasn't the dragging death of James Byrd a death penalty case as well? Yet again, from the democratic party and its activists, your party, we heard all about the need for hate crime enhancements in Texas even so. Has your party, dropped its advocacy for the enforcement of hate crime enhancements?
Also several have requested that you forward the investigation to the FBI so that federal hate crimes charges could be considered. But you have refused to do so. Again I ask, Has your party, dropped its advocacy for the existence of federal hate crime enhancements?
Hmm probably not. Your party has made hate crime laws a big part of their agenda, yet, you as a democrat, in the Carr case have refused to investigate racial animus, and sealed records (which many have speculated reveals the racial animus of the defendants) and refused to forward the investigation to federal authorities.
Do you have an explanation for this remarkably contradictory behavior? If so I would like to hear it
Sincerely,
PS In the next election I will be sending money to your opponent. Because I don't feel that a person who refuses to apply the law equally, regardless of race, is qualified to be district attorney.
