NBCOUT realDonaldTrump will prolly pardon the suspects anyway. He loves to protect murderers.

NBCOUT I hope justice will be served now that these criminals have been apprehended. The point I want to make is that when people have beliefs rooted in fear, they act out of fear & often do terrible things, like murder people because of sexual or social orientation. Get a grip on Fear.

NBCOUT Give them a medal

NBCOUT SecPompeo should condemn this heinous crime
