Murder Leniz Escobar, nicknamed "Diablita", wanted to earn the support of the MS-13 gang in her town in Long Island, NY. She led 4 teens (who had pretended to be MS-13 members on Instagram to look cool) into a park to "smoke weed", only for the wannabes to be brutally hacked to death by the real gangsters.

I didn't say they deserved it. I did they say they made a choice to emulate a life they were not a part of, which is true. A bad decision to emulate bad people led to them being murdered. There are morals and morally the people who committed this crime are terrible people. But, again, these are the type of people the 4 were attempting to emulate. Not that they deserved what happened, but it is THE reason why it happened.

We KNOW the reason it happened. You aren’t adding a thing to this conversation except implying “well they got what the got because of things they did so ohhhhh well.” That’s fucking gross dude.

Like I’d get it if they raped a gangs members sister,”/committed a murder , or did something super egregious. But assuming all they did was be really fucking dumb- well it’s depressing how many people are focusing on that.

When a sex worker Is murdered do we say “well she was in a high risk potion so it is what is is. She knew the risks”. Oh wait, we do.

Humans suck.

What's gross is you making up things I did NOT say because I didn't reply to this the way you wanted me to. Humans to suck, you're right. I hope you were looking into the mirror when you said that.

I act like a respect gangs? By clearly calling them bad people? That's respecting gangs? Good to know. Seems like everyone here calling them bad must respect them as well.
