Female suspect arraigned in Channon Christian, Chris Newsom murders
Last Updated: 4/18/2007 1:13:35 PM
Vanessa Coleman was arraigned in Knox County Criminal Court Wednesday for the murders of Channon Christian and Chris Newsom.
Coleman appeared before a grand jury on indictments that included aggravated rape and first degree murder.
Coleman is the only woman charged in the case, and the last suspect to be arraigned. She was arrested in Kentucky, and unsuccessfully fought extradition.
Coleman is charged in the murders, along with Lemaricus Davidson, Letalvis Cobbins, and George Thomas.
All four are scheduled to be back in court May 17 for a status hearing.

I agree and the VT is very disturbing but this is sick beyond the pale. All four of these cretins need to be executed in the ways prescribed in Elizabethean England for treason.

This is truly Satanic. Those poor young people!
Well, as far as how the criminals could do such things, old Buddha weighs in with this:
176. For one who falsely speaks,
who disregards the Dhamma (Buddhist Law of Love and Compassion),
who other lives denies:
no evil this one will not do.

well at least it wasn't a hate crime, since the criminals were black and the victims were white. According to the media wonderful misunderstood wise blacks can't commit hate crimes, only evil rich whites can do this

Here's a link to the case where the USSC determined that low witted killers are a protected class.
Atkins v. Virginia
The killing took place not too far from where I live.
In the bank ATM video, you can see the fear in Airman Nesbitt's eyes, as the scumbags had a gun stuck against his side. A pox on those bastards that call themselves "justices".

I live in West Tenn. This horrible story was not even a blip on the screen here. In fact, this is the first that I have heard of it.
I guess that the press was just too busy with the Mary Winkler story!

I remember this case as the killers dumped the body a couple miles from my house. We had just moved here and this event really “made me feel safe” for my kids.

Yeah, I live the next state over, and didn't hear about this until I saw it posted on FreeRepublic two days ago.
Where is the media outrage? They focus on Alec Baldwin, Rutgers, the VT shootings, and bombings in Iraq.

For over a year we’ve been hearing about three white lacrosse players raping the stripper. Of course it never happened, the stripper was lying. In the same city a white girl was raped at a black fraternity party and there’s been no media coverage.

Yeah, I saw a freerepublic thread about Channon Christian pop up in google alerts but it was pulled with the comment “No thanks.” I did a search here and amazingly this is the only story. If you want to know anything about this crime, you have to search google for Channon Christian. It’s far worse than anything that happened to James Byrd but you’ll never hear about it from the national media and sadly it’s even being cleansed from freerepublic.
To: Verax
Funny that we don’t hear anything about these absolutely horrendous murders on Greta, Geraldo, Nancy Grace, etc.
Wonder what Al Sharpton has to say about his people who participated in this crime?

I’m shocked that this story would be censored by FR.
What was the reason given?

It just says “No thanks”. Here’s the summary given by the google alert:
News Blackout Conundrum (Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian)
This vanity is about double standards. I only hope it doesn’t get pulled because of it’s content. It isn’t race baiting or bigoted, but there’s no way to not appear racist and bigoted when talking about this subject. ...
To: Psycho_Bunny
Holy crap. I hadn’t heard of this crime.
Of course not. The MSM hasn’t cleared it for release.

Inundate them with messages about this. Who knows; maybe one of them will bite.
