Needs to be significantly stiffer penalties for sneak attacks / sucker punches and maybe SOME of this will stop.

There is an update to the story.

quote:

Three Holy Cross School students filmed fighting a group of older men on Bourbon Street last year were defending themselves after bottles had been thrown at them and one, a black teenager, had been referred to by a racial epithet, the person who recorded the video recently told the Orleans Parish District Attorney’s Office. The witness statement was disclosed in a document filed in court Friday by the prosecutor handling the case against the students, who are scheduled to be tried on battery charges later this month. Attorneys for the students — Rhett Weidenbacher, Christopher Collet and Kyree Currington — have claimed they were defending themselves from men who were spoiling for a fight because of Currington’s race.


quote:

Weidenbacher and Collet, both 18, are white. Currington is black. He turned 18 this month but was 17 when the fight occurred Oct. 8. All three are athletes. A filing signed by Assistant District Attorney Eric Cusimano identified the man who recorded the video of the fight and temporarily posted it on Facebook by his user name on the social media site, “Mc Lucky Dee.”

All 3 are 18 before the school year starts. They must have transferred from John Curtis.

Wait, based on the statement of Mc Lucky Dee that it was race related?

It seems that way. It was 3 HC students, one was black. Evidently one of the old dudes started calling him racial slurs.

This is becoming the standard defense for these kinds of cases, and it should terrify anyone who believes in the Rule of Law.
