If he had killed any of us, the cops wouldn't give a shit.

Remember that.

Yeremi Colino was murdered the same day. No massive manhunt, no big cash reward for his murderers' capture. AFAIK, they're still at large.

But I guess that's the difference in how our society values the lives of a migrant teenager and a CEO of a massive insurance conglomerate.

These insurance providers kills thousands and the cops don't give a shit.

And if you were in a bad situation, cops on the scene have a higher chance of killing you.

If I’d done what that CEO fuck probably did to this guys family, he would a been justified in killing me too

Too bad they can't just pick up a rando with mental health issues and lie, torture, and starve him in a room until he "confesses"
