Stories Clash in Hate Crime Death

When Satender Singh joined a group of friends for a day of fun on the shores of Lake Natoma last July, no one realized that the 26-year-old's life would quickly come to a tragic end.

These people that committed this crime against Singh are ignorant. They have blantantly, erroneously admitted that Vusik did it. They have proved his guilt prior to any trial.
I pray for the family of the victim and hope justice is finaly served. This story is so sad.
peace

So, if the wife of Vusik confirms that he is in Russia and is in contact with him, would she not be guilty of obstruction of justice? She obviously knows his location and isnt speaking up. Also, like the other user had posted, they have confirmed the guilt of the accused. So why is no pressure put on the family to get him back here to face the charges? Afraid or not, he needs to face what he has done.

Singh'S death is no accident one again the Russians are trying to cover there behind, Singh's friend is right if it was an accident yeah Vusik would be man enough to come forward and say I'm sorry it was an accident and take his punishment now his friend is taking the whole mess thats not right

The Russians have been out spoken about the gay & lesbian groups in Sacramento, and I understand that they don't appreciate the life style but whom are they to judge, others know that its not ring yes its a sin but we have to realize that this is America. I know girls who are bisexual & like other girls too, but they are my friends and I have to accept that as a fact.

I have trouble believing it would have taken so long for the man who threw the punch to come forward if it were truly an accident. If two groups of people were in a fight and one got hit one time and died becuase he hit his head, the guy who threw the punch would not have even gone to jail. I know, that was poorly written. I am glad there were so many witnesses that were not with either group. I do not think this man meant to kill when he hit him, but he did so he should be a man.

Sounds like a bunch of dirt bags (both parties) got out of hand. Happens everyday. One group got upset with another groups behavior. Where's the race issue? Both groups probably used racial slurs to inflame the other, but people do tend to use inflammatory words as disagreements escalate.

A Hate Crime for what, taking out the trash? Now we get the other side of the story, after the homos have blown this out of proportion. I’m surprised someone had the courage to approach them and ask them to stop their perverted behavior. Go back in the closet if you want to fondle, not in public where children are present.
Sounds like self defense if Singh tried to slap him first.
And you think that it justifies hurting or killing someone? You don't seem to see the fact that it is not about gays, it is about someone killing someone and then running away to escape taking responsibility. A group of morons who can barely acclimate to their new home and then blame someone else for their sexual orientation? You would probably fit in well with that group of morons.

Other side of the story--

"A Hate Crime for what, taking out the trash? Now we get the other side of the story, after the homos have blown this out of proportion."

You use hateful slurs, then pretend there's no hate crime involved...cute.

"I’m surprised someone had the courage to approach them and ask them to stop their perverted behavior."

There's no courage involved in bigotry, homosexuality is NOT a behavior, is not "perverted," and is really nobody else's business. You have no right to tell people who they can love and be attracted to. None. And this bigotry and hate is getting people killed, which is why hate crimes laws are badly needed.

"Go back in the closet if you want to fondle,"

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO TELL PEOPLE THAT!! Being gay isn't about "fondling" any more than your grandparents were just about having sex. No, people do NOT belong in a closet. They have as much right to live their lives as anyone else, and bigots like YOU are the ones who need to be stopped.

"not in public where children are present."

Children aren't harmed in the slightest by being around gay people.
They ARE harmed by being around hate and bigotry. I would rather learn one of my kids was gay than to find out they were as ignorant and bigoted as you are.

"Sounds like self defense if Singh tried to slap him first."

Lie. You just want it to be OK to beat up and kill gay people because you hate them.
And THIS is why hate crimes laws are needed, because of this vicious bigotry and homophobia.

Jennifer Lee--

"The Russians have been out spoken about the gay & lesbian groups in Sacramento,"

And homophobes need to look closely at that and see how ignorant one has to be to think people choose their sexual orientation, or that it makes you less of a person.

"and I understand that they don't appreciate the life style"

Being gay isn't a lifestyle!

"but whom are they to judge, others know that its not ring yes its a sin"

Lie. It isn't a sin. Homosexuality isn't an action. It's not something you do, it's something you ARE. It being a "sin" is based in homophobia and lies, people misusing scripture as a weapon of hate.
Being gay is NOT a sin.

"but we have to realize that this is America."

Being gay isn't a sin anywhere. Gay people are just regular people like everyone else across the world. But, you are right that America SHOULD be taking the lead in justice and equality, yet when it comes to gay people we're lagging far behind because of hate and ignorance, and it's a disgrace against everything this nation stands for.

"I know girls who are bisexual & like other girls too, but they are my friends and I have to accept that as a fact."

Do you really think they all chose to be gay? That they can just change and magically turn heterosexual? This is PROVEN false.
There's no excuse for gaybashing. It's a violent crime of hate and must be severely punished.

personally, I think the 2 groups need to take the time to meet with each other. but to kill a human being , i cannot understand? this was a human with flesh and blood and a load of friends and family. And why run back to siberia? come accept your wrong doings like a real man! People should ask themselves before a life is taken, does he have a family?, sisters or brothers,
or maybe this person could have saved your life in the future! if you have no respect for human life that you deserve to be extradited back to America and face the judge! how dare you come to our country and murder our citzens?
you can run but will not escape AMERICAN JUSTICE

A man is dead. But for the actions of these perpetrators, Mr. Singh would be alive today.
He is the victim, not the Russians perpetrators or their families, or the Russian community in Sacramento.
Rest in peace Satender Singh.

Exactly! do your perverted things in your own closet, but not in public. Would any of you (gay defenders) like to go to the park with your kids just to spend some time together and all the sign you see a group of people doing drugs, being drunk...all in front of your kids? Do you really want some one like that around your kids, teaching them all this stuff?
