All-White Jury Chosen in Pennsylvania Hate Crime Trial

POTTSVILLE, Pa. — An all-white jury has been seated in the trial of two Pennsylvania teenagers in the fatal beating of an illegal immigrant from Mexico.

This is just an outrage what is going on with the youth of today? They should be charged as adults. Anytime you commit a crime of this magnitude you should be punished to the full measures of the law. If you are man enough to beat a man to death then you should be man enough to face the consequences that follow. To add insult to injury a all white jurry. We know how this is going to turn out.

Being tried in a case does not mean that they committed it. It seems as though you have forgotten the age old American promise of "innocent until proven guilty." Regardless of whether these two teens did this or not, it is hard for one to even claim that they are being given a fair trial. Hopefully it can be proven without a reasonable doubt that they did indeed commit this crime though so in the end, justice can ultimately prevail.
