Outraged! Murdered Baby Snubbed By Media

Exclusive: Ben Kinchlow blasts national press for ignoring black-on-white crime

WND

Ben Kinchlow

I am outraged!!

An innocent victim is brutally murdered, and the killer will not get the death penalty. Have we become so calloused that the unprovoked deaths of innocents (of all people) do not merit the death penalty?

Oh, did you think I was talking about the Trayvon Martin-George Zimmerman case?

That is not surprising, since it has dominated news coverage almost every day since it happened. But my outrage is not directed at a case that has been examined and re-examined from the ghetto to the newsrooms to the White House, but at an incident that you probably have not heard of.

Do the names De’Marquise Elkins or Antonio West ring a bell? Generate a vague recollection? “I seem to have heard something like that.” Well, let me refresh your memory, since apparently the national media don’t consider the story worth any major coverage.

It has often been said, “What you don’t know won’t hurt you.” But that’s not true. Ignorance is deadly! Be the first to get Ben Kinchlow’s “Black Yellowdogs” before its Sept. 10 release.

On March 21, 2013, Antonio West was shot to death by De’Marquise Elkins. Well, that is not all that big a deal; after all, according to the Slate gun-death tracker, “Last year, there were 32,163 firearm deaths … the vast majority of these deaths are Americans killing Americans.”

And with names like De’Marquise and Antonio, they were probably black. As the statistics show, “Blacks killing blacks ain’t no big deal.” After all, almost 500 blacks have been killed in Chicago since the Martin-Zimmerman saga began to unfold (61 just during the trial period). “So what’s the big deal about some dude named De’Marquis offing another dude named Antonio?”

Apparently there is a little more to the story than that, something the national media obviously did not consider particularly newsworthy. According to several reports (not headline news, of course) which lasted about two days, the following emerges:

Antonio (Santiago) West, a 13 month old, was sitting in his stroller when De’Marquis (17) and Dominique Lang (15) accosted his mother, Sherry, and demanded money. According to Sherry, “A boy approached me and told me he wanted my money, and I told him I didn’t have any money, and he said, ‘Give me your money or I’m going to kill you and I’m going to shoot your baby and kill your baby,’ and I said, I don’t have any money and don’t kill my baby!”

      I agree that the MSM’s silence of this case is as much of an outrage and heartbreak as the actual act itself. That being said, please please please keep in mind that the aforementioned perpetrators are still alleged perpetrators at this time. Let’s not stoke the flames of hate that seem to be flaring irresponsibly and uncontrollably by foregoing their guilt. Lest we have more of the idiotic media circus made of the Zimmerman case. They were accused, not convicted. And until the powers that be have completely destroyed the foundation of our nation that is our Constitution, one is still innocent until proven guilty.

      The President is Galvanizing the willfully uninformed Blacks , White Sympothizer Liberals and all forms of controlled Media to defend him from being arrested for his crimes. It’s so obvious the net is closing in and needs to use the threat of black on white violence to prevent charges from being placed on him and having him impeached. The violent attacks are happening so white people will be forced to fight back and then be made into scapegoats through TV media spin and corrupt investigations. It boils down to being ready to call out the corrupt and hold them accountable by any means and support the patriots who are willing to make the sacrifice and do the hard dark and dirty work that must be done.

      Revenge Attacks on Whites and White-Hispanics over Zimmerman Verdict
      ***** Baltimore, Maryland::: In a post that drew nearly 50 comments on Facebook, real estate agent Christina Dudley said she was walking to her car just before 9 p.m. when she saw several young black males and two black females chasing a 37-year-old Hispanic man west on North Linwood Avenue past East Fairmont Avenue. “One of the boys had a handgun out and it was pointed at the back of him,” Dudley said in an interview. They caught up to the man at the corner of Fairmount and N. Streeper Street, and the male with the gun beat the victim with what appeared to be his gun while others kicked and stomped him, Dudley said. “They were just yelling and calling him names as they ran after him, but once they were hitting him and after that they started yelling, “This is for Trayvon, [expletive],” said Dudley, who heard the chant repeated multiple times.
      ***** Jacksonville, Florida::: The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office is facing accusations that it covered up a hate crime by denying that the murder of two brothers in a parking lot on Sunday night was related to the Trayvon Martin case, despite the fact that a sticker was placed on the brother’s truck which read “Free Zimmerman”. At around 8:45 p.m. at the 7000 block of Normandy Blvd, Jacksonville, 24-year-old Andrew Austin Bohannon and 19-year-old Matthew Ryan Bohannon were sitting in their truck in the Golden Corral parking lot when they were approached by another car carrying multiple occupants. After “some type of conversation” between the two parties, multiple shots were fired at the brothers. One was killed instantly while another was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at a local hospital. “Now rumors have spread that the deadly shooting is in retaliation to a bumper sticker placed on the Bohannon’s truck that said “Free Zimmerman,” reports FirstCoastNews.
      ***** Senatobia, Mississippi::: A man who says he was jogging alongside of a road when three black men abducted and beat him claims the alleged attack was in retaliation for George Zimmerman’s acquittal, police in Senatobia, Miss. told Fox News. Police Chief Steve Holts told Fox News the alleged victim, who is white, was jogging Sunday night along Highway 51 when, he said, the suspects pulled over and ordered him to get inside their car. “One of them asked, ‘Do you know who Trayvon Martin was?’” Holts quoted the man as saying. At that point, the men in the vehicle allegedly attacked him. The man, who the chief described as a young resident of the area, was treated at a local hospital. Memphis television station WREG reported the assailants allegedly told the victim, “This is for Trayvon.” The television station and The Democrat newspaper reported the jogger was badly beaten and later dropped off on a road between Senatobia and Coldwater, Miss.
      ***** Oakland, California::: Christian Hartsock, a conservative journalist and filmmaker, says he was assaulted and beaten down to the ground by a mob with repeated strikes to the face while reporting at a Trayvon Martin rally in downtown Oakland Sunday night. ***** “One young man chanted ‘There’s gonna be some violence tonight!’” Hartsock said. “He then came up to me and demanded I erase the footage from my phone — another request I declined.” “As two other young men interrogated me, their friend behind them came up and a young man then slugged me in the face about three times — hard — and demanded that I leave,” Hartsock said. “Then I began getting clocked by others in my left temple and jaw by other assailants and was mowed to the ground by about half a dozen of them.” Hartsock feared the worst. “For a couple minutes I was pinned down to the ground — one gentleman on top of me slugging me across the face repeatedly as an indeterminable number of others kicked me in the side of the head, and tried to get my phone out of my hand… The harder my grip tightened, the harder their punches to my face became,” he said.
      ***** Los Angeles, California:::People protesting George Zimmerman‘s acquittal marched along Crenshaw Boulevard on Monday night, stomping on cars, chasing bystanders and storming a Wal-Mart. Several protesters made their way into the Wal-Mart as guards scrambled to close security gates. A short while later, Los Angeles Police Department officers wearing helmets and carrying batons swarmed the store as others marched through the parking lot.
      ***** Chester County, Pennsylvania::: In Chester County, Pennsylvania, police are investigating graffiti on a building before it was set on fire: “KILL ZIMMERMAN.” Firefighters were called to the scene of the fire at ProSigns, a company manufacturing commercial signs for business, and found that phrase spray-painted in red on the front of the building. The firefighters put out the fire without significant damage. The fire has been ruled arson.
      ***** Los Angeles, California::: A CBS2/KCAL9 photographer and reporter were assaulted Monday night while covering a George Zimmerman protest in Crenshaw. Reporter Dave Bryan was conducting an interview around 10 p.m. when the suspect tackled him and his photographer, the station confirmed. “All of the sudden, this guy came up from behind, he had a hood, and he knocked David on the head and he pushed the camera guy down. The camera guy went down, the camera went down, David went down,” witness Joseph Deguerre, said. “I was in shock.”
      ***** Oakland, California::: A waiter was hit with what appeared to be a hammer while protecting the windows at Flora, a restaurant at the corner of Telegraph and 19th Street. “Protesters with black masks approached the window and tried to bang at it,” said bartender Phillip Ricafort. “(The waiter) said, ‘Don’t do that!’ and the guy turned around and smacked him in the face with a hammer” or another metal object. “It was gruesome,” said Ricafort. He said his co-worker was bleeding from the face.Vandals also targeted Flora’s windows over the weekend; several windows were still boarded up.
      ***** Cobb, Georgia ::: In early July, Joshua Chellew was beaten to death by four young black gang members. Yet, chances are that you have not heard about this story before today. A few national sources have reported it but not that many. Why? Well it is because we have to understand that our national media has an agenda. The Marietta Daily Journal reported: Four south Cobb teenagers are in custody in connection with the beating death of a 36-year-old Mableton man on Mableton Parkway early Sunday morning. The incident initially was reported by police as a hit-and-run death over the weekend, but the narrative changed drastically Tuesday after the arrests of four teenagers on murder charges. Jekari Oshay Strozier, 19; Antonio Shantwan Pass, 18; and Johnathan Donald Anthony, 18; all from Mableton, are in the Cobb County jail without bonds on charges of felony murder, aggravated assault and violation of the Georgia Street Gang Act.
      Unreported-Media Blackout Hate Crimes against Whites by Blacks
      ***** Brunawick, Georgia::: ON March 23, 2013, Two Georgia black teenagers killed a 13-month-old baby after shooting him in the face while trying to rob the child’s mother. The indictment by a Glynn County grand jury charges 17-year-old De’Marquise Elkins on 11 counts, including malice murder, in the slaying last Thursday of young Antonio Santiago a few blocks from his home in coastal Brunswick. The same indictment, returned Wednesday, charged the suspect with shooting another person in an unrelated robbery attempt earlier this month. Another suspect, 15-year-old Dominique Lang, was indicted on seven counts including felony murder. But the indictment specifies that authorities believe it was Elkins who shot the child and wounded his mother with a .22-caliber revolver as the boys tried to steal money from her. District Attorney Jackie Johnson of the Brunswick Judicial Circuit said in a statement Thursday she would not seek the death penalty against either suspect because Georgia law doesn’t allow capital punishment for defendants charged with crimes committed before they were 18. Both teens are charged as adults. The few details contained in the indictment seem to back up the story the slain baby’s mother, Sherry West, has repeated to numerous reporters: She was pushing her baby in a stroller as she walked home from the post office when two youths approached asking for money. West says when she refused, the older teen drew a gun and shot her in the leg before shooting her son in the head. Glynn County Police Chief Matt Doering told reporters Wednesday before the indictment was returned that investigators believe the crime was random — something police hadn’t said previously. “We’re comfortable now, six days into it, to say the location of the incident and the victim were random,” Doering said. “I don’t have any information that shows otherwise.” The grand jury also indicted three of Elkins’ relatives on charges that they tried to help him after the shootings. The suspect’s mother, Karimah Elkins, and older sister, Sabrina Elkins, were charged with evidence tampering. The indictment says they threw the revolver that police suspect was used in the shooting into a saltwater pond where investigators recovered it Tuesday. Doering said the gun is being tested to see if it can be linked to the child’s slaying.
      ***** Knoxville, Tennessee::: Channon Gail Christian, 21, and Hugh Christopher Newsom, Jr., 23, were a couple from Knoxville, Tennessee. They were raped, tortured, and murdered after being kidnapped early on the morning of January 7, 2007. Christian’s vehicle had been carjacked, Five people were arrested and charged in the case. The grand jury indicted four of the suspects on counts of capital murder, robbery, kidnapping, rape, and theft, while a fifth was indicted at the federal level. Of the four charged at the state level, three (Letalvis D. Cobbins, Lemaricus Davidson, and George Thomas) had multiple prior felony convictions. After a jury trial, Lemaricus Davidson was sentenced to death by lethal injection and Letalvis Cobbins and George Thomas were sentenced to life in prison, Cobbins without the possibility of parole and Thomas with the possibility. Vanessa Coleman has been convicted of facilitating the crimes and sentenced to 53 years in prison, and Eric Dewayne Boyd has been convicted of federal charges as accessory after the fact to carjacking and sentenced to 18 years in prison. The state convictions were set aside because of misconduct by the presiding judge, who has since been disbarred; retrials (pending appeals in all except the Coleman case, whose retrial is not being contested) had been tentatively slated for the summer and fall of 2012, but in May 2012 the Tennessee Supreme Court vacated the motion for new trials. All of the state convictions (except for the Coleman case) were permitted to stand and the defendants remain incarcerated pending appeals. To date, only Coleman has been retried, with a reduction in term from her original sentence by approximately one-third.
      Victims:::
      Christian moved from Louisiana to Tennessee with her family in 1997. She was a graduate of Farragut High School and a senior majoring in sociology at the University of Tennessee. In 2008, a Golf Tournament and Memorial Foundation were established in Channon Christian’s memory to provide a scholarship for a Farragut High School Senior to attend the University of Tennessee.
      Newsom, a former baseball player for the Halls High School Red Devils, graduated in 2002. He was interred at Woodhaven Memorial Gardens. A little-league baseball tournament in Newsom’s honor was held at the Halls Community Park in 2008 and 2009. A memorial scholarship is given annually to a graduating Halls High School baseball player.
      Crime:::
      Christian and Newsom were leaving an apartment together to go to a friend’s party when they were abducted from the apartment complex parking lot. Christian’s parents found her abandoned Toyota 4-Runner two blocks away from the Chipman Street house the following Monday with the help of her mobile phone provider. An envelope recovered from the vehicle yielded fingerprint evidence that led police to Lemaricus Davidson and 2316 Chipman Street. When police went to the address on Tuesday, January 9, they found the house unoccupied and Christian’s body in a bin in the kitchen. According to the testimony of the Knox County Acting Medical Examiner Dr. Darinka Mileusnic-Polchan at the subsequent trial of Eric Boyd, Newsom sodomized with an object and then raped by an individual (although the DNA was unidentifiable). When his body was discovered near a set of nearby railroad tracks, he was bound, blindfolded, gagged, and naked from the waist down. He was shot in the back of his head, neck and back and his body was then set on fire. According to the testimony of the medical examiner, Channon’s death came after hours of torture, having suffered injuries to her vagina, anus and mouth as a result of repeated sexual assaults. It was also reported that her body was scrubbed with bleach which was also poured down her throat, in an attempt by her attackers to remove DNA evidence, while Channon was still alive. She was then bound with curtains and strips of bedding, her face covered with a bin liner and her body stashed within five large bin bags, before being placed inside a residential waste disposal unit and covered with sheets. The medical examiner said there was evidence that Channon slowly suffocated to death.
      Suspects and indictments::: The four indicted by Tennessee prosecutors were:
      George Geovonni “Detroit” Thomas (born January 23, 1983), 24, who faced a total of 46 charges. Thomas was indicted on 16 counts of felony murder growing out of the rape, robbery, kidnapping, and theft of Christian and Newsom, 2 counts of premeditated murder, 2 counts of especially aggravated robbery, 4 counts of especially aggravated kidnapping, 20 counts of aggravated rape, and 2 counts of theft.
      Letalvis Darnell “Rome” Cobbins (born December 20, 1982), 28, who faced the same 46 charges as Thomas. He has also been charged with assaulting a correctional officer while incarcerated pending trial. In 2003, Cobbins was convicted of third-degree attempted robbery in New York. He and Davidson are brothers.
      Lemaricus Devall “Slim” Davidson (born June 13, 1981), 30, who faced the same 46 charges as Thomas. Previously Davidson had just completed a five-year sentence in Tennessee on a previous felony conviction for carjacking and aggravated robbery on August 5, 2006.
      Vanessa Coleman (born June 29, 1988), 18, who was arrested by the Lebanon Police Department in Lebanon, Kentucky. She faced 40 Tennessee state charges. Coleman was indicted on 12 counts of felony murder growing out of the rape, robbery, kidnapping, and theft of Christian and Newsom, 1 count of premeditated murder (of Christian only), 1 count of especially aggravated robbery (of Newsom only), 4 counts of especially aggravated kidnapping, 20 counts of aggravated rape, and 2 counts of theft. In each indictment, the large number of rape counts were included to provide a range of options for prosecutors, not to reflect the number of rapes that actually occurred. In addition, one suspect was separately indicted by federal prosecutors for the Eastern District of Tennessee:
      Eric DeWayne “E” Boyd, 34, was arrested in connection with the fatal carjacking, though not indicted by the Knox County grand jury. Boyd faced federal charges in as an accessory after the fact for helping the suspects evade the police. Later, Boyd was also accused by Thomas and Cobbins of the rape and murder of Newsom, and a search warrant was obtained for his DNA. The accusations by Thomas and Cobbins did not result in state charges against Boyd.

      You are right about the blacks be mistreated but, what is going on today is not what MLK envisioned. When a black thug kills a child in a stroller, BO, Sharpton and the NAACP say nothing, do nothing. When a young women is shot in the back running from a Chicago city park, BO, Sharpton and the NAACP say nothing, do nothing. Jesse Jackson is out for a walk, looks over his shoulder see a white man behind him. He is relieved for he knows he is not going to be attacked.
      Barry says he could have been TM. He is lying to you. Barry is such a coward that he would not have been out at 3am in the first place. If he was he would have ran as fast as his leg would take away from George.
      The blacks as you call them, for there are white trash in the same boat, vote democrapic just for the freebees, an get something for nothing program, slaves to big government.
      We all need to wake up or the government is going down, just like Detroit. That the Barry way.
