Suspect in Fresno Killings Shouts Out in First Court Hearing
NBC Bay Area ^ | 4/21

Posted on 04/21/2017 10:03:13 AM PDT by nickcarraway

The suspect in this week's racially motivated shooting rampage in Fresno entered a courtroom early Friday shouting that natural disasters striking America will increase.

Kori Ali Muhammad, 39, then shouted twice during a minute-long hearing: "Let black people go in reparations."

He was charged Thursday with killing unarmed security guard Carl Williams at a Motel 6 a week earlier.

Authorities say Williams was the first of four killings by Muhammad. Police say he told them that learning he was wanted for the Williams killing spurred him to try to kill as many white people as possible before he was caught.

He shot three other white men at random Tuesday, police said, including a Pacific Gas & Electric worker sitting in a truck and two men who had come out of a Catholic Charities building. He fired 17 rounds in less than two minutes. Police, with help from acoustic sensors posted in the area, arrested him less than five minutes after the rampage began.

Fresno County Superior Court Judge W. Kent Hamlin assigned a doctor to examine Muhammad. He set bail at $2.6 million.

He's due to return for arraignment on May 12. Muhammad said Williams had shown him disrespect while Muhammad was visiting a woman at the motel, according to police.

Prosecutors say Muhammad will face murder charges for all four men, but they're waiting for investigators to assemble their case before filing the other three.

“Let black people go in reparations.”
That will get him support from the other America-hating democrats.

AP - Shooter's motive still is unclear.

Should be no bail, due to mental instability and the nature of his crimes.

Also, at any future hearings he should be on closed-circuit TV with his microphone turned off so he can’t be disruptive like that. Turn it on only when he’s asked a question. Mute him when he starts going off the rails. Don’t give him a forum to grandstand and spew his hateful propaganda.

He’s throwing racism hail mary pass and it’s not even late in the 4th quarter. No sale.

Not buying this one either: “Muhammad said Williams had shown him disrespect while Muhammad was visiting a woman at the motel, according to police.”

Do buy this: He needs the death penalty, pronto.

Oh, and dissing a guy at a motel room is definitely a capital offence, right? Friggin’ Muhammad!

You're probably right. But my twisted mind says, Let him be heard in blaring headlines so race-baiters like Maxine, and Al, and Jesse, and Don, and Juan and all the rest can come out to either disavow his words or reveal themselves for what they are.

So it is a federal hate crime and falls within AG Session's jurisdiction rather than the Californian penal system......

Is he death penalty eligible in that case?

Just answered my question: No. He can get life for the murders but there is no provision for the death penalty.

Geeez.

This guy should be strapped down and masked on a dolly like Hannibal Lecter in future appearances.

"Let black people go in reparations."

We will let 'em go in any vehicle they like to any destination they like.

I think an Airbus A-350 to Mogadishu would be just the thing.

There they won't have to deal with hateful white American climate-change deniers.
