  1. The LGBT are the new mass shooters too

  2. And Jordan Taylor, law student missing since Jan and presumed to be a victim of this ‘alleged’ syndicate?

  3. Drugging people for their money, like my mother would say, "anything to get out of working for a living, eh, buddy?"

  4. Im glad I’m married. Dating now a days is risky. Married to my middle school sweetheart ❤

  5. A good friend of mine is Lebanese. His grandfather was a chief magistrate in Lebanon. He said people like this guy upon conviction were immediately taken out back of the courthouse and hanged. It's and entertaining fantasy that could happen to this scum.

  6. Why weren't the suspects whyte

  7. Please stop with this news please respect everyone’s families! With respect!

  8. What's with the weird filter on the side pictures of this guy? An attempt to sensationalize what doesn't need to be sensationalized? Y'all should have more confidence in your content. And PLEASE, don't over report Trump's BS. Just wait til the end of the day and tell us what happened in court. No OJ car chase shots.

  9. I had some wild times in college.

  10. So let me understand this NYC. Rated down to a misdemeanor and no bond.

  11. You people are racist. They are wonderful people who only came here to escape the violence.

  12. Set him free. He is doing work assigned by Christ!

  13. These white supremacists are getting out of hand!

  14. U know it's really low when you have to do something like this smh sorry for all the victims and families

  15. Seriously, just for future reference nobody cares ❤😅

  16. I am so disappointed with white man 😂😂😂 the suspect isn't white

  17. The wages of sin is death.

  18. Lock em up throw away the key

  19. So Bragg can downgrade the charge.

  20. Death penalty should be administered to any criminals who cause the death of an innocent point blank period.

  21. Stop leaving the bars with strangers, that’s what happens for being so promiscuous

  22. This is disgusting .. also these are straight guys

  23. The DA will drop charges as they only prosecute conservatives

  24. Good riddance 🤣😁🤣🤣

  25. 🤣🤣 didnt fit their narrative this story will be gone soon as its not the white guy they hoped it was

  26. The Most High Yahuah' earth will be cleansed. HalleluYah!!

  27. The last legitimate use of facial recognition software (just me & my phone) is now demonstrated to tempt robbery.

  28. It's just so petty. A ring of 3 guys kills someone to split "nearly $20 thousand." I hate the idea of putting a pricetag on someone's life, but that they lost their lives for such little gain makes it so much more awful. Just meaningless.

  29. They never mentioned the why, on removing facial recognition.

  30. He was saving up for a nose job

  31. YOU GET WHAT YOU VOTE FOR

  32. NYC WILL JUST LET HIM OUT

  33. Republicans & Marco Rubio are also going to blame Mexico for these Rats that distribute & consume Fentanyl in USA😂????

  34. What an evil and disturbing crime. Some humans are really just monsters in disguise.

  35. Sure New York actually arrested a real criminal….I dont believe it….not competent enough

  36. lidocaine exists in so many products over the counter tho :/ just sucks you would include that as a drug he shouldnt have had. your grandma wears lidocaine daily probably…
