I personally don't care what color any of those involved are/were. It was a brutal crime regardless of race or hate laws. This deserved media attention because of the heinous nature of the crime. Whether they hated the victims because they were white or the Carr brothers are sadistic bastards is irrelevant. Four people are still dead and charging them with a hate crime won't change that.
These men (and I use that term loosely) are animals and should be treated as such. No, I take that back...they shouldn't be treated as humanely as animals.
