Prosecutors seek death penalty in Iraq veteran slaying

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Prosecutors will seek the death penalty for the suspected shooter in the death of an Iraq War veteran who was withdrawing money from a Nashville ATM machine last June.

According to a release from the Davidson County District Attorney General’s office, prosecutor Roger Moore said at a status hearing on Friday he would seek the death penalty for Christopher Lee Davis.

Davis and three co-defendants are charged with criminal homicide in the death of 26-year-old trucking company employee Herbert Clayton Jr.

Clayton’s family said the victim was an Army Reserve member who had come home from a deployment in Iraq less than a year before his death.

Davis was previously charged with criminal homicide at the age of 17 for a 2005 shooting. That case was dismissed due to lack of witness cooperation.

Of course if Mr. Clayton had died in Iraq the entire nation would know about this. And since Mr. Clayton is Black, we’d hear members of the Civil Rights Industry pontificating on his behalf. But once he got back home and has been killed, allegedly by a Black man who was fresh out of jail, who will complain about this? The report notes that the 4 crimminals were probably involved in other crimes in addition to this shooting, the attempted kidnapping and car jacking.

For anyone beyond local news media to care about Mr. Clayton’s death, he would need to have died in Iraq, so Liberals could use his death as a political token, or been murdered by a White man, so the Civil Rights Industry (again Liberals) could use his death as a political token. But people just like Mr. Clayton are being killed across America, by people who some claim are his brothers and it’s pretty much ignored, because there is no political angle to be gained from it. Well guess where most Black men are being murdered? America. And guess who is murdering them? Other Black men. How come those who claim to care about me never spend much time on that? You know why. And that’s why I call Liberals hypocrites of the highest order!

It’s a shame that a man survives war in Iraq, just to be shot dead by thugs who happen to share his skin tone in Nashville, TN USA.
