King' s Killer Offered Plea Deal

On February 12, 2008, Brandon McInerney walked into his eighth grade classroom and put two bullets in the back of classmate Larry King’s head. His reason? Because Larry King dared to flirt with him. Ever since that date, his defense has sought every opportunity to portray McInerney as the victim and King as the aggressor. Brandon was just a poor tormented kid who couldn’t take it any more. Newsweek contributed by running a hit-piece on Larry King. He has even been helped by King’s previous guardians who think that by portraying Larry as a threat to all that is heterosexual, they can get money from those who were actually caring for him. But District Attorney Maeve Fox is refusing to allow Brandon McInerney’s attorneys to portray him as an innocent or to trash the name of Lawrence King and seek to blame him for his own murder.

All I can say is it's so sad that one life has been lost and another destroyed. But McInerney's life was probably destroyed before he ever met Brandon.

The parents of the killer need to be "spot lighted". Just where does an eight-grade person get a gun, let alone think shooting someone would solve an issue. Even an alley cat can reproduce, parenting takes a life time!

well its just the way it goes, a str8 man can flirt and hit on a woman and she dont like it she cant do much but leave, but a str8 guy feels its his right to kill some one that hits on him he doesnt like

[john]

if i killed everyone that hit on me I would be a mass murderer

[john]

everyone i didnt like (add that)

Brandon McInerney should get life in prison with no possibility of parole.

R.I.P. Lawrence King.

:(

[john]

flaunted his sexuality and wielded it like a weapon, thats a line from the storie. What str teen boy doesnt flaunt his str8ness, and try to get into any girls pants

No doubt the religionists want to give McInerny a medal.

i do feel sorry for Brandon and his family, i grew up in the time you would hide what you was and kids today are out more but still face death for being that way, and im sorry but its not right, he was gay and he cant make others gay he just wanted to either stop the bulling or find some one in any case he was just being human and tring to fill his need to be free and happy which this land says we should have

[john]

oops sorry mean the family of larry, missed typed the name

[john]

cant believe i put his name there, i cant feel sorry for brandon( except for he was missed lead) and his family cant feel for them either they didnt teach thier son about people, and i guess it was hate not to care and love others

[john]

There needs to be a gay trust fund to help familys like Larry, wheres the gay leaders that always speak out(but never get anything done)?

[john]

hey fuzy like to talk to you seem like a smart one

[Reason]

I had no idea he was such an evil little SOB. I had been feeling kind of sorry for his family, but not so much now...

It's time to scrap any vestige of a "gay panic" defense. Every girl in this country learns how to deal with unwanted advances by the time they are in their teens. Boys can't learn this too? The reaction to an unwanted advance should not be murder or any other type of assault.

I should tell one my friends in high school treating a guy with lawsuit for sexual harassment for making lewd comments to her,and that same guy also fondled on my other friends. But that another story. I wonder what happened to him? I heard he went juvenile hall once that was it,

Why do you insist on sounding like an idiot with that kind of moronic (not to mention bigoted) comment? Are you trying to convince any people who might not be aware just how much of a jerk you are? I'm pretty sure that's abundantly evident.

In case you didn't read, a person was murdered. I'm not convinced that's the stuff of stupid and tasteless jokes.

No. What he said was true. There are religionists like Phelps, and Falwell & the pope that would give this evil kid a medal.

What is untrue about that ?
