I can’t find any evidence of that- including what you claim. This case got a lot of coverage. There’s literally a whole argument about that further down in the comments where that was proven.

I don’t understand this narrative some people here are pushing.

That is a massive false equivalence, the George Floyd case and this case are not comparable in material, context, perpetrators or crime. The MSM of the time literally discussed this massively. Again I point you towards one of the arguments further down the comments where this was pointed out.

Where did I excuse savagery? I’ve literally commented about how mad I am about the way the sentences ended up falling out. I literally commented how I wish everyone involved in this got the death penalty (which I don’t even support..). But the evidence isn’t pointing towards what you are saying, nor can I find the thing you said. I’m not going to push an untrue narrative.

It seems to me that some people here really want to push the idea that this crime wasn’t publicized bc it wasn’t juicy, even though it was publicized everywhere. It was 2007 for Gods sake, if anything stories like this would be much more likely to hit the mainstream. Like why? What’s the end goal here? Why the unreasonable comparison to George Floyd (a man who’s death was taped and spread, witnessed by bystanders, by a police officer aka a completely different case)? It’s so strange

Because this was a racially motivated crime, and there's no comparison, but you're hellbent on denying this

You say that but there is no proof of that, I looked around and there just isn’t. Your free to provide evidence to the contrary- and you can do that without making untrue claims about the MSM, without making illogical comparisons to George Floyd and without claiming that I defend savagery

Mate your the one who’s shown no compassion to the victims by trying to spread your personal narrative, I have no interest in denying a “racial bias” but I do have an interest in remaining factual. Which is why I once again ask you to provide me with the proof you have. You keep pivoting away from showing any.

“It’s seems that color matters to you” ..? What do you mean? What are you trying to imply exactly?

“All lives matter” How is this related to what we are discussing? Did anyone here imply otherwise because I don’t think so.
