[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This news story has really struck a nerve with me! I donated to his family just to show support, but i just can’t stop thinking about that poor man and this last awful moments of his life. It’s the dragging part that really gets me. They could have stopped the car!! They didn’t.

I agree. I mentioned earlier in the thread that the car flipped and that’s what killed him. After seeing this - I believe those girls deserve the death penalty. Sheer cruelty.

[i]Police believe Anwar had partially left the car and was wedged between the door and the driver’s seat as the teenagers allegedly put the vehicle in gear. It lurched forward with Anwar still hanging from it, officials said.[/i][/quote]

From what was said at the hearing, he'd actually exited the car and was trying to get back in. 13 year old likely panicked and, from the passenger seat, turned the ignition key and jammed what sounds like it must have been the gearstick forward, which caused the car to lurch suddenly forward and flip over.

These kids should obviously be punished. If they were adults, our felony murder laws mean they could be tried for 1st degree murder notwithstanding the lack of any evidence of premeditation. But c'mon... Did they actually have premeditated intent to kill him? No chance. They brought a taser and let him get out of the car initially; then the 13 year old tried to drive away without him from the passenger seat, whereas the 15 year old in the driver's seat did not.

Let's give them around 30 years in big girl jail. That seems fair.[/quote]
