Another juicy article from the AP that can't wait to point out that this murderer listened to violent music.
An aspiring rapper in the "horrorcore" genre pleaded guilty Monday to killing his 16-year-old girlfriend, her parents and her friend days after the adults chaperoned the teens at a music festival featuring artists rhyming about raping, killing and mutilating people.
It's in the first paragraph!
The "journalist" doesn't squeeze anymore unnecessary connections to the violent music until much farther down in the article. Then, tucked pretty much out of sight, there's this gem:
Asked if McCroskey's musical interests had fueled his rage, Bowen said, "Much of that music is so rampant with this exact kind of behavior, you can't help but notice the coincidence. But I don't have a sense the music led to this kind of behavior."
The reporter doing the interview was trying to milk a soundbyte out of the attorney. Thankfully the murderer's attorney isn't a blithering idiot like most of our country.
It's really simple: murderers are batshit insane. It doesn't matter what they listen to or read. If you disagree, how about you force your kids to read something safe and nonviolent, like The Catcher in the Rye?
