(Oxnard, California) Ventura County Deputy District Attorney Maeve Fox said that the discovery of white supremacist materials in the bedroom of the 14-year old boy accused of killing openly gay teen Larry King led to the murder charge being upgraded to include a hate crime charge and for the case to be tried in adult court.
“The discovery of these items in large part prompted the filing of the hate crime allegation in this case,” Fox wrote in a court filing this week.
“
not the type of things that are typically associated with the study of World War II. Rather, these items depict racist skinhead philosophy of the variety espoused by Tom Metzger, David Lane and others. They included hand-drawn sketches of swastikas, references to the ‘14 Words’ and the number 88, which is commonly used by skinheads to represent the words Heil Hitler and Hitler’s SS,” the filing said.
King was shot in the head during a morning class at an Oxnard school in February. More than 20 other students were in the room at the time. McInerney was arrested shortly after the shooting.
King died in hospital after his mother agreed to have life-support removed.
