This is seriously looking a little bit like back in the day when the FBI used to go "Oh what's that a Klan killing? Durper durr we don't know nuffin bout dat" *puts hand in pants* *jerks dick*

If the circumstances were slightly different I would be inclined to agree with you. Let me pause for a brief moment to mention that I'm speaking based on how I think this would go down in a Canadian court, but I'll take a leap of faith and say that's not drastically different from an American court.

Anyway, he's 88 years old. And he's charged with murder. He's got neo-Nazi connections for most of his life. There's no point wasting tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars charging him with 15 counts of anything, one charge of murder and that's it, he's in jail for the rest of his life.

The dude in the article you linked is 23 years old. And I only read that one article but, based on the details given in it, I won't lose any sleep if he's in jail for the rest of his life.

This doesn't excuse the stereotype corporate white guy doing cocaine and smashing head-on into a black family's mini-van, killing them all and paralyzing the youngest one for life, while he gets away with whiplash and 2 years in prison. Meanwhile black kid has half a joint on him and gets 20 years. Yeah that's retarded. But this case? A non-issue.

What really gets me about this shooting is, according to the few articles I wrote, the security guard that died was holding the damn door open for von Brunn. Like, fuck.
