Also a hate crime?

So, she caused her own death by defending herself? F**K YOU, NBC News.

NBC....it almost sounds like you're blaming her.... for her own death, and defending the murderers. I despise the liberal media.

Guns bad, mhm

The headlines and the media are already making excuses for the little degenerates who killed her. Their parents are responsible for raising urban terrorist

Trump was right then and he's right now.

I hate the term 'robbery gone wrong,' as if robbery gone 'right' is fine.

Let’s see who he blames for this

What a dreadful waste. Her poor family who will never see her flourish.

Outright murder! Hold parents of ’teenage attackers’ responsible, as well.

NO Security provided near campus! Students not warned of Lack of safety! CNN MSNBC Politico

Assuming trump will be taking out a full page ad demanding the death penalty.

... police say..

Those thugs must be caught and prosecuted swiftly. Our prayers for her bereaved family 🙏💔

Too bad she didn’t have a gun.

Glad to hear that she fought back-hope it hurt those little f**ks

Do robberies ever go right?

Liberal policies have DESTROYED the black family. Before minimum wage laws took effect in the 50's, black teen boys had jobs and were working! Before welfare in the 60's, black mothers depended on their husbands, not welfare.

13 yr. old boy is not identified, but report says he's from Harlem and the boy’s aunt and uncle, Shaquoya Carr and Roosevelt Davis, who are his guardians, sat directly behind him in court. The boy allegedly didn't do the stabbing but another perhaps 13, 14 yr old did.

I wish they would publish this little shits picture that stabbed her ... so sad for her ... she tried to fight back ... who are raising these violent kids

Murder is an adult charge.

“Group of teens” I know what that really means.

You know what prosecutors call a 'robbery gone wrong' that results in someone's death? Felony Murder.

Obama’s kids strike again...

Remembered being attacked once at about 11yrs by some teenage boys on Halloween nigh. A pillow case full of candy. 1953? Neighborhood crime buy bullies has been around a very long time.

So very sad for this bright woman & her family it’s like there is no end to crime God Bless her family. Rest In Peace.

Kill them

FFS beautiful talented young woman has her life taken away by 3 INNER CITY YOUTH( yea BLM get over it) who have no concept for anything other than LETS GO DO A LICK. While the law states otherwise, a completed Death Penalty is called for in this case. NO BEN CRUMP help needed.

I am all for second chances and redemption, however we also need to realize when certain people are a danger to society and need the harshest penalty. Don't care about the age in this case, life in prison.

😥 what is wrong with our teenagers, we need to fix this now before they are in charge of our world. teachRESPECT teachCOMPASSION teachSELFCONTROL teachNOT2STEAL

And we need to know this because...?

Murdered by democrat THUGS

You must answer the test question, correctly, but you need not internalize the propaganda.

All the hot takes...

The worst news. My heart breaks for her and her family.

'Robbery gone wrong' MSNBC sympathizes.

Sickening. All of them to face the most severe cosquences. Bring in their parents as well. They all pay.

I heard this morning the suspect who stabbed her is 13 years old...

It was probably a drug deal gone bad stop sugar coating things. Have you seen how these collage kids go out and party its pathetic. Tide pod eating etards.

'Robbery gone wrong' is a sympathetic take on the robbers/killers.

It was an intended Hate Crime

So utterly sad and heartbreaking!
