D-Day vet beaten, wife killed in robbery - Army News | News from Afghanistan & Iraq - Army Times

Sad way to end ones life...............Home Invasion of the worst kind.
For weeks now we've heard about Trayvon and heard nothing about this couple. I looked and could'nt find that we on CD are talking about it............

Why is this case any different, in fact it's worse than what happened with Trayvon. Where's the out cry from the public??
At least Zimmerman is claiming self defense and this kid is claiming what???

Obsessing a bit over Travyong, aren't we? Do you think we've had enough Travyon threads? I guess not...

BS, police is investigating that case, they have someone in custody.

That is NOTHING compared to the Trayvon Martin case where the police and the DA were reluctant in putting effort to investigate the case.

STOP acting like Trayvon was not a victim. ALL victims should have justice.

Trust me, those who do not blindly follow MSM sources know about this.

Cut off the cable. Cancel the newspaper subscription. Do not buy magazines. Starve the beast.

A horrible tragedy to be sure.

I have to say though, that the fact that there is a link to a media source, as well as a report in the article that says that the 101st airborne assoc. is asking for donations hardly suggests that the case is getting NO attention.

I really wish that people would be more honest and just say what they mean. This case is not getting the attention that the OP believes it deserves, and perhaps it is not, however, the cirmcumstances are in no way equivalent to the Martin case - there is already one suspect in custody and the LEOs are looking for more.

Again, a horrible tragedy that more people probably should be aware of, but, yet another false equlvalency.

Exactly right. If they can't sell ad space they'll die. NY Times, the most liberal propaganda machine on the planet, is sinking fast. The only reason most of them are still alive is because the government is subsidizing them.

I haven't heard anything about it on the news........this isn't really about Trayvon it's about a man who's wife was raped and killed and so was he just weeks after Trayvon and no one has said much..............You'd think we'd hear just as much, but his wife was only beaten, raped and killed at the age of 85, by a 20 year old.

Not really.........this just happened around the same time and hasn't gotten near the attention. No one is calling for this kid's head or money to capture the others. As people did in Trayvon...........

He was a victim and seems of his own doings.

This couple was in their home minding their own business. Don't you find it a little strange they capture one and not the others..........please just how hard are they working this guy over to get the information, I say pretty lightly
