I don't get the focus on this case. Is it because she's a pretty white girl?

Plenty of horrible cases around the country.

Why this one? And what's with all the glamor shots as pictures of her? Was she a model or something?

I think it’s a few things.

1.  There’s video and it’s pretty heartbreaking. You can actually see the fear in her eyes.  Usually we don’t actually WATCH the victim die, so that’s unusual here and obviously people are going to feel more connected / interested in it.

2.  The guy never should have been out.  Usually the perp has a rap sheet but this guys own mother came out and said he should’ve been locked in up. That’s unusual.

3.  It “seems” like the media / Charlotte  tried to keep this under wraps because it is really bad for them. So some people think it’s necessary to call this specific case out, because they feel like Charlotte is hiding the ball (this gets political because some people are trying to associate blue cities with crime - possibly it wouldn’t get as much attention [b]if it happened in Witchita KS[/b]).

4.  I’m sure her being pretty does increase attention in the case but I really think it’s 1-3. [/quote]

People would have filled the guy full of holes if that had happened around there. :D [/quote]
