Derrion Albert, Chicago teen beaten to death

Derrion Albert, Chicago teen beaten to death

 

Three teenagers have been charged with first-degree murder in the death of a 16-year-old boy whose beating was captured on amateur video.
Darrion Albert was beaten to death last week. His death was captured on video.

One of the three is a minor, but all will be charged as adults, prosecutors in Cook County, Illinois said Monday.

They are charged in the death of Derrion Albert, an honors student who was beaten to death last Thursday. An amateur videotape of the beating has been broadcast nationally.

It's unclear who shot the footage, but a local television station that received the tape turned it over to police.

The tape shows attackers wielding two-by-fours and punching and kicking a single person. At one point, four or five males are seen beating and stomping the same young man after he falls to the ground.

As the attackers run away, the person with the camera and several others approached Albert and carried him into a nearby building. "Derrion, get up!" a female voice pleads.

Three people over age 17 and one juvenile were questioned on Sunday.Source: CNN

 

This is so unfortunate! Parents and teachers should teach kids better about the consequences of these "stupid" brawls.

This is so tragic. What could compel these kids to act this way?

This is a very common problem that is raging on many cities around the country. The worse part of it is that not one of the hundreds of witnesses has called to police to let then know who the others at fault are.
They would rather a killer be free then be labled a snitch.
Crazy isn't it.

Its too bad that the person with the black suv or anyone else didn't do more to prevent this senseless act of violence! It seems as though the people shooting the video were more entertained than concerned! What gives people? Serious waste of a life all for what?
