Tattoo Money

We've heard of some half-assed reasons for killing people, but this is definitely in our top ten:
  • Bail was denied today for a 19-year-old man accused of fatally shooting his grandfather as the older man left his home for an early-morning dialysis appointment earlier this month.
    William D. Strickland, of the 400 block of East 95th Street, shot his grandfather six times in the back and used money stolen in the attack to buy tattoos, gym shoes and other items, Assistant State's Attorney Amanda Pillsbury said at the bond hearing.

    The judge denied bail on charges of first-degree murder and armed robbery with a firearm and set his next court date for Monday.
On the brighter side, now he can get all the tattoos he wants in prison (if Anita can convict him that is)

What no 150 counts??

Guess granpa and grandma must not be on Rahm or Obama's campaign contribution list huh?

Sad day for that family. No trips to the White House for you.

No harm to Rahm.s campaign donations I guess.

This is a perfect example of why we should re-instate the death penalty.

NEVER see a 'youth' in our Juvenile cell with anything but a brand new pair of kicks. Hmmmm. Wonder what the average age of shoes is in the hood - a week, and then in the garbage??

The article failed to mention the animal stole the gun used from his grandfather and later killed him with it.

I think the kid is a black p stone.

Now we are going to have to pay for his trial, pay for his attorney and pay for the next 50 years he will spend in prison.

He has been a drain on socity his entire life. No damn good whatsoever. That one should have been flushed down the toilet prior to birth. Not even a claim from momma of how he was a good boy or getting his life together.

The only good thing would be that at least he didn't kill a police officer.

And what were the tattoos he got, according to the tribune,

Strickland has "Legacy," "Loyalty," and "Respect" tattooed on his arms, according to court documents.

Just a little irony.

Does Anita still charge murder? Or did she make the unilateral decision that the statute is unconstitutional? (like Illinois' definition of marriage being man + woman)

Wow just sad. I don't have any stupid comments for this one. Shot his grandpa in the back, what a coward. Now the state will flip the bill to house his for how long?

Sad just freaking sad. Savage at his best. Where are the reverends for this one. Its Black on Black violence.

I feel bad for the old man but I'm glad his shit bag son or daughter has to live with the fact that their horseshit job as parents led to the death of their father.

Realistically, they probably don't. Give a shit.
