News: Relatives of a 17-year-old are angry the teenager was shot and killed by a homeowner who police say was protecting her property.
The sister of the teen who died identified him as Trevon Johnson. She said he was a student at D. A. Dorsey Technical College.
“I don’t care if she have her gun license or any of that. That is way beyond the law… way beyond,” said Johnson’s cousin Nautika Harris. “He was not supposed to die like this. He had a future ahead of him. Trevon had goals… he was a funny guy, very big on education, loved learning.”
On Thursday, police say Johnson burglarized a home south of 79th Street near I-95 — just blocks away from where he lives. . . . . .
“You have to look at it from every child’s point of view that was raised in the hood,” said Harris. “You have to understand… how he gonna get his money to have clothes to go to school? You have to look at it from his point-of-view.”
* This is hilarious. It should be spread across the Internet and archived multiple times before CBS realizes what’s going on and takes it down. It reads exactly like something from the Onion but it isn’t. I think somebody at CBS Miami got fed up with PC and decided to do a little truth-telling in a way that got under the radar. I hope they don’t end up firing the one real reporter they have in-house.
The names: Trevon, Nautika, Nisha
The relative’s excuses for the defunct punk: “You have to look at it from every child’s point of view that was raised in the hood … You have to understand… how he gonna get his money to have clothes to go to school? You have to look at it from his point-of-view.”
And, of course, the picture.
