In Tennessee, many people remember a slightly older group from Kentucky who came to Knoxville, abducted Channon Christian and Cris Newsome and after several days of torture , burn him, continued to torture her until they poured lye down her throat and stuffed her, still alive in a 40 gallon drum and sealed it.
This story was buried nationally for the most part back in 2007-2008 or whenever it happened which was odd considering the heinousness of the crime and how awful it was. I'll let you figure out why it got buried nationally (for the most part). I didn't even hear about it until around 2013 or so.

It was insanely underreported. The response from media was that minorities are victims more often, and are reported on less, so obviously this isn't underreported.
Of course a fairer question is whether brutal, sadistic murders by white people of black people would become a multi-day/week national story. The answer to that is obvious, of course.
