Marine and wife's brutal murder



http://www.nydailynews.com/news/us_world/2009/06/18/2009-06-18_coldblooded_order_aired_in_calif_slay_of_marine_wife.html

Excerpt:
Terrorized and tortured, allegedly by four fellow Marines, Sgt. Jan Pawel Pietrzak and his wife
were on their knees in their ransacked home when one intruder handed a loaded gun to another.

"Do them," Lance Cpl. Tyrone Miller told Pvt. Emrys John, a former Marine testified Wednesday.

"They had them kneel over the couch and they placed a seat cushion over his head and shot him,"
22-year-old Justin Weissinger told the court. "They shot his wife in the same manner, twice."

Weissinger, who was kicked out of the service in February for flunking a drug test, said Miller
gave him that account and even boasted about how they sexually assaulted Pietrzak's wife, Quiana.
A homicide investigator said the Marines spray-painted racist remarks in the home.

BartCop:

"When they lowered the standards for military recruits, why did they
go all the way down to white supremacists with criminal records?

I never heard of this case until today and I ran into it by accident.
I assume it's because the wife was Black and we all know Black doesn't sell as well as white.
If she was a blond white girl, Larry King might stop talking about Michael Jackson.

We live in a crazy, fucked-up world.

Sidebar:
What if we got the news without any mention of race?
What if Sgt. Crowley was Black and arrested a white Harvard professor?

Would Obama have said the Black officer "acted stupidly?"

2. Your last question was as stupid
as officer Crowley acted.

However, the rest of your post is accurate.

With the last administration's wars slowly (too slowly) winding down, perhaps the military can eject the scum.

This sort of crime is sickening even without the racial component.

Edited on Fri Aug-07-09 01:36 PM by LaPera
ALL republicans are ALL a part of this ideology and movement by supporting this disgusting corporate fascist republican party of greed lies, racism & hate - divide & conquer for profit & power that prospers by encouraging incentives for corporations to suck Americans dry for profit.

If one says but not all republican are that way then they are full of shit...

If these idiots they are too fucking stupid to understand the ideology of the republican party than they are just as bad, ignorance is no excuse....but they pretend ignorance to their family & friends, yet remain republicans....because ALL republicans are racist they endorse hatred, lies & greed....The Republican Way!

story, that people like Beck, O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Savage and the many other republicans use to propagate and encourage their sheep to hate.

Telling & repeating to the uneducated, uniformed, uncivilized goons that it's OK to hate and there's nothing wrong with them hating if they are different than them or if don't agree with you, that "these people" are anti-American...leading the morons along next to believe they should killed and these different people should be dead and that will take care of all their problems.

9. Why wouldn't the Marines be handling this and don't they usually ask for the death penalty when a
Marine murders his superior officer?

12. Thats Right
Republicans encourage racism everyday, especially in these scum.



From left, Kevin Darnell Cox 20, Emrys Justin John 18, Tyrone Miller 20 and Kesaun K. Sykes 21

Sorry, the Republicians are guilty of many things, they had nothing to do with this one.
