I can't believe that it has been 8 years since this happened. I wonder how many people got their carry permits because of this case.

I remember reading about this back in 2007 and resolving to get my carry permit that year.  What a nightmare...

Happened near me.

Watched the trials almost everyday.

Haven`t heard of anyone around me getting CCW permits just because of this event. Maybe the next time, won`t be a next time.

CCW is good, but I'm sure there's more to learn from this case.

How did the initial abduction go down? I assume they had their vehicle doors unlocked?

Had the opportunity to listen to a forensic panel from the multiple agencies that investigated this.  It was heartbreaking to hear the torture that both of these kids endured.

I'd like to hear about some justice for the families & punishment for the perps.  Fat chance, I know...

Goes against the media's agenda. Now if the colors were reversed...

Basically it all started out as a carjacking.

The kids were visiting some friends at a party and the perps were out looking to jack a car. Wrong place, wrong time.

BTW, I live in the same city.

I never heard about this until I read about it on arfcom some time ago. And I am a news junkie. Whatever happened to the perps?

Wasn't  an accomplice to the perps up for parole recently?  I remember reading something about it, but I don't know the outcome.

I heard about it on an MMA website a year after it happened. This story got zero attention from the national mainstream media. This particular crime was what pushed me off the fence to begin carrying 24/7.

That the perps live is offensive.

As a firearms instructor I have people coming to me all of the time to get "their" CCW vs pistol training.  I am quick to
explain that the permit does nothing to protect you from violence.  What I tell them is the ability to
defend yourself is what will protect you.  Learning how to "effectively" carry and use a firearm is paramount,
along with other self defense techniques, situational awareness and the continued training and practice.
Somehow, people believe the CCW badge is going to make the difference and it ain't.

It is true that the bulk of the initial news reportage about the Newsom/Christian murders was local (predominantly in Tennessee, where the crimes took place, and in neighboring Kentucky) while the case received little or no national coverage by major news outlets

Every time I look at this case I rage.


I don't think I can say anything without violating the COC.  I'm really surprised the dad held it together....I can't say anything about this either due to COC.

It was reported, yes.

The people who control the liberal media outlets "sometimes" have to report things which do not fit the "agenda."

However, it was not given the 24/7/365 top of the hour coverage that it would have been given had the race roles been reversed.

These people have not been completely successful in creating a truly Orwellian propaganda apparatus YET, but that doesn't mean they aren't trying.

They were making out in the car while it was parked. ("Task fixation")

Violent but understandable extremism provoked by systemic racism and lack of adequate educational opportunities.
