After the kidnapping, rape and murder of heiress and teacher Eliza Fletcher, the most dangerous city in America is right back at it
Tonight 19 year old black male Ezekiel Kelly aka Zeek Huncho is on a shooting rampage across the city, livestreaming himself on facebook as he has shot numerous people at random in public, unclear how many, possibly 6+, with one video of him walking into an auto zone and shooting a random white person and leaving. With the shootings and manhunt still underway, and the suspect apparently carjacking more victims, its unclear what the death toll is. But its all just one acute slice of the much larger crime problem in Memphis which dwarfs most other cities, a husk of a formerly great regional power that is now a rotting cesspool.

anyway, as of 33 seconds after writing this;
>UPDATE: the suspect is currently in a grey Toyota with Arkansas AEV63K. If this suspect is seen, call 911 immediately.

Suspect is now in custody, but we haven't gotten any account of how bad it was

So with the dust settled
4 people are dead, 3 wounded, suspect in custody.

Two were shot in locations a few minutes apart. Then the suspect went on the road and shot and killed a man inside his car. Then he shot a woman in the leg while on the interstate, she survived. Then carjacked and murdered another woman, shooting her multiple times. Then shot and killed another woman and injured another man and carjacked another person. In one of the incidents he pretended to be injured while walking away from his crashed car, then shot and killed a good samaritan nurse who got out to help him.

In 2020 he was charged with two counts of attempted first degree murder in a shooting, but prosecutors let him plea down to a single aggravated assault chare and he was sentenced to 3 years in prison. And then he only served 11 months and was released from prison in March. So not only was he given a sweetheart deal, he didn't serve it anyway.


Still not clear if he was specifically targeting white people, seems like it
Also seems like a case where the death penalty is wholly insufficient.
