Teen Charged with Capital Murder in Stand Your Ground Case Against Bullies

Hampton, Va. - A sixteen- year old boy was charged with Capital
Murder in the shooting deaths of two men who were attempting to rob him on New
Years Eve. A park full of juveniles watched helplessly as their fellow
skateboarder was robbed and beaten by Kenneth Wilson and Donovan Walker; taking
the teen's BMX racing bike. The two men, ages 20 and 21, then sadistically sent
the teen home to retrieve tools and additional parts for the bike. However, the
teen, whose name has been withheld because of his age, returned with a weapon
and asserted his right to protect himself and his property.
At the time of the shooting, Wilson and Walker
had both recently been released from jail. Ironically, Kenneth Wilson allegedly had
at least one restraining order against him from one of the teenagers in the
park that very day. Sources close to the investigation allege the shooting victims to be
leaders of an organized gang that terrorized the teen for years. There is
history of incidents stemming all the way throughout their high school years. Hampton police have yet to disclose the fact that the men
had robbed the teen at knife point some months earlier. Time and time again
and without explanation they were “let go." Community activists believe the police charged the six-teen
year old with Capital Murder because they were embarrassed at their failure to
protect the neighborhood parks from these gangs.
How is it possible for two men to be killed
during the commission of a crime yet the media portray them as innocent
victims? Well, what people need to know is that the majority of all bullying
cases that end up with someone dead, the media is ordered not to disclose the
fact that the shooter killed someone who had been bullying them. They do not
want to be seen as sympathetic to the shooter. However, if the child getting
bullied commits suicide, only then will they disclose the fact that the child
was a victim of bullying.
One parent whose son was victimized by the duo
said she was hurt yet relieved to know Wilson and Walker could no longer hurt her son. These men were
running a continuing criminal enterprise, using fear, bullying, intimidation
and coercion to make teenagers give them their property to resell. When those
men sent that kid home and told him to come back or else, he was under extreme
pressure. Therefore, the crime against his person was still ongoing. They were
waiting for him to comeback and bring them money or parts. Instead, these two
grown men, who went to a skateboard park without skateboards or bikes looking
for trouble- got far more then they bargained for; a scared teen who was tired
of being their victim.
