First Conviction in the Christian-Newsom Race Hate Murders

Seems that Justice has finally been served:

KNOXVILLE – Jurors this morning convicted Letalvis Cobbins of first-degree murder in the torture-slaying of Knox County couple Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.

The verdicts, after being reviewed by Criminal Court Judge Richard Baumgartner, were announced before a packed courtroom.

Jurors on Wednesday will shift into a penalty phase in which they will consider evidence about whether Cobbins, 26, of Kentucky, should be executed for the January 2007 kidnapping and murders.

The jury concluded that Cobbins had responsibility in all the crimes committed against Christian, however, the same panel acquitted Cobbins of charges involving the rape of Newsom.

Those acquittals don’t mean much, however, since jurors found him guilty of the first-degree murder of Christian, 21, and Newsom, 23.

“I can’t even tell you what all those guilty verdicts were that he read,” Gary Christian said.

“He raped my daughter. He’s responsible for her murder. I’ve said all along he’s going down. He’s just started sliding, and tomorrow’s going to be the nail in his coffin.”

This was a clear cut case of racial hatred, black on white. It should be tried as a hate crime. But because the feckless and fearful Knoxville, Tn Government does not want a backlash, they refused to try it as such. This is a disgrace to the State of Tennessee.

I could have saved the State of Tennessee a great deal of money.

Ich würde diese Ermordung Schläger nehmen und mir einen Strick und ein Baum und reihen sie auf! Yes, I did write that, proud of it, damn it. 😡

However, I am glad to see that this Negro thug will not be hurting anyone else.

Of course, your bleeding heart liberals, who believe in rainbows and unicorns; they would want to give these murdering thugs a second chance.  These are Obama’s people folks, remember that!
