Case study # 3

The rate that media exposure is different depending on the each situation. Also media press stories depending on bias. Some crime not really allowed pressing through media. Media try to keep the story quiet. I think there is no love crime and media should cover all stories equally.
Even though hate is one of the human emotions, like love, hate can evoke jealousy or anger.
Usually crimes are committed for reasons of ethnic or gender hatred rather than reasons of love. If the world is full of love, there will be more peace and becoming safe place.
Here are the stories about crime.

1. Rodney king and Reginald Denny
On March 3, 1991, video tape captured Rodney King, an African-American, being repeatedly beaten by a group of LAPD (Los Angeles Police Department) officers. More than a year later, on April 29, 1992, all four officers (three white and one Hispanic) were acquitted when the jury could not reach a verdict. The result sparked outrage about racism across the country, especially in South Central Los Angeles and South East Los Angeles where a largely African-American mob took to the streets shouting "Black justice!" and "No justice, no peace!" in what became known as the 1992 Los Angeles riots. Reginald Denny, a white construction truck driver was beaten nearly to death by a group of black assailants who came to be known as the L.A. Four(The L.A. Four was a nickname given to the first four men charged with the attack on Denny). The attack was captured by a Los Angeles News Service helicopter piloted by Bob Tur and shot by Marika Tur. The video was broadcast live on US national television.

2. Channon Christian
Channon Christian and Chris Newsom were kidnapped. While Channon was forced to watch, her boyfriend was raped prison style and then his penis was cut off.
She was beaten and raped in many ways and gang separated her dead body to five trash bags and threw it away.

3. Abeer Hamza
A 14 years old girl, Abeer Hamza, was gang-raped and murdered after her family was murdered. Five United States Army soldiers of te 502nd Infantry Regiment were charged with the crimes.

4. James Byrd
The three men beat Byrd behind a convenience store, dumped their victim’s mutilated remains in the town’s black cemetery. Byrd’s murder was strongly condemned by Jesse Jackson and the Martin Luther king Center as an act of vicious racism and focused national attention on the prevalence of white supremacist prison gangs.
