For some odd reason we have people on here who believe that all we have to do is reason with citizens in these places by showing them statistics that say crime is actually down and that will help them sleep better at night.

DC gov employee turns himself in to police related to charges in killing
WASHINGTON - Jason Lewis, the D.C. government employee officials say is responsible for shooting 13-year-old Karon Blake earlier this month, has turned himself into police related to charges in the killing.
Blake was shot and killed around 4 a.m. on January 7 in the 1000 block of Quincy Street.
Investigators say Lewis suspected him of breaking into cars along the street. Blake was shot multiple times and was transported to a local hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Jason Lewis is a D.C. government employee and was placed on administrative leave.
In the aftermath of the shooting, community members gathered in the neighborhood to demand answers in the teen’s death.
D.C. Police Chief Robert Contee addressed the investigation into the shooting of Blake in the days following the shooting.. "We recognize the community's desire to get the details of this incident, but we must also acknowledge that the ongoing nature of the investigation prevents us from sharing specifics that could jeopardize the integrity of this case," he said during a press conference.
"There's been too much misinformation swirling around this incident, too many people have made assumptions about this case, and it is unfair to the grieving family," he added, forcefully. "Spreading of inaccurate information is dangerous, reckless, and has the potential to adversely impact the investigation and the relationships in our community."
Contee confirmed the shooter was a Black man but stopped short of identifying him at the time.

And they say you can’t learn from watching tv lol. Willie Manchester scared tf out of me and made me never want to attempt to steal a car. Maybe they should show that movie at school or something to try and deter these kids from doing that.

Technically I understand why they charged him. I just hope a jury acquits.
This is bullshyt.
This is bullshyt.
man was standing on his property when he shot the kid, the kid wasn't on his property or threatening him and he just killed him.
he ruined his own life making poor decisions with that gun. a camera would have been more effective if he got their face and the license plate of the vehicle.

Yes jury nullification to send a message to these little hooligans.
I'm siding with the citizen defending his shyt. Not the juveniles out in the middle of the night stealing people's shyt.
he didn't defend "his" shyt tho.

Whatever. I'm with the taxpaying homeowner.
The communitah and parents failed this kid. And they are failing other kids by making this homeowner out as the bad guy and not focusing on juveniles committing crime.
If his parents or guardians or any of these fake ass people crying about this kid now gave a damn about him he wouldn't be out after midnight breaking into cars.
so you believe homeowners should be able to carryout extrajudicial killings without consequence.

In this case yes. There is and epidemic of juveniles carjacking and stealing cars in this area.
Fukk that MJ LS shyt. You know the homeowner is a Black man.
So Black folks can't own homes?
Black folks don't have the right to own nice things and not expect people to fukk with them?
MJPLS yourself.
