National outcry follows beating death of WWII veteran
Kenan D. Adams-Kinard
The nation’s eyes have turned to Spokane and the two teenagers accused of murdering an 88-year-old World War II veteran.
Police say two 16-year-olds beat Delbert “Shorty” Belton to death Wednesday night after robbing him. One suspect, Demetrius Glenn, turned himself in and was arrested late Thursday night. The other, Kenan D. Adams-Kinard, remained at large Friday night.
“We hope Mr. Kinard or his family will do the right thing and surrender quickly without incident, and we can resolve this and bring closure to the family of the individual who lost his life,” police Chief Frank Straub said.
Both boys have a history of violent crime: Glenn has a conviction of fourth-degree assault, riot and eluding police capture, as well as two pending charges of malicious mischief and driving without a license. On June 26, Adams-Kinard was convicted of third-degree theft and fourth-degree assault.
Security officers with Spokane Public Schools helped identify the suspects. Adams-Kinard was a student at Lewis and Clark High School. Demetrius Glenn went to North Central and Bancroft but dropped out in February.
Both face charges of first-degree murder and first-degree robbery and will be tried as adults. Glenn is scheduled to make his first court appearance Monday afternoon.

... the chief of Police said this murder had absolutely nothing to do with race ....
I’m shocked!
They are right down there with those peacful muslims that push weelchair bound people off of cruise ships. There is a special place in hell for them.
And the media remains deaf, dumb, and blind. How wonderful is that?
Yep, I wonder if he’d say the same thing if the races were reversed...No, I guess I don’t wonder.
Maybe he hasn’t turned himself in yet because he was at the MLK rally.
Ping!
No...he probably is starting at Homeland Security soon, replacing the “brother” who had the racist/hate web site (and who is now on paid leave.
Look at those eyes totally empty. Nothing redeemable in there at all.
These thugs need serious jail time. Armed robbery and manslaughter, perhaps second-degree murder, and you can bet this isn’t their first time being arrested.
Of course if didn’t, the victim was white and the perpetrator was black. /sarcasm
Correct, it’s the first thing I noticed.

Wow. What a shameful incident. For one of our remaining WW2 vets to lose his life in such a way, killed by a couple punks, for fun.
Another Obama son!!!
The FBI interviewed every person Zimmerman knew his whole life - left no stone unturned - to assure the world it wasn't a hate crime.
I'm sure the FBI is doing the same in this case...
LOL - kidding the FBI is as corrupt on this issue as a 1930's Al Capone gang... the FBI reek of bias... I'll bet the two bit jerks haven't started their 'investigation' into the IRS abuse of Tea Party groups either. And they damn sure aren't going to check out this murder as a possible hate crime.. Eff 'em.

That's bull obama!
Indeed. As someone who is not a fan of George Zimmerman, I can say that these perps and the killers of that Australian ball player are far worse than Zimmerman is.
