Youngest hitman, only 15

[the_tyrant]

A teenage hitman who was caught on CCTV shooting a young mother dead was jailed for life with a minimum term of 20 years at the Old Bailey today.

Santre Sanchez Gayle, 15, was paid just £200 to carry out the murder of Gulistan Subasi – a fee he used to buy a gold Dolce and Gabbana beanie hat.

The boy, known by the street name Riot, will spend at least two decades behind bars after being convicted of the cold-blooded murder, described by a Judge Stephen Kramer as 'an efficient, ruthless and calculated execution'.

Saw this on evening news, absolutely shocking, but there is an alarming increase in gun/gang crime in central London.

[Feuer Frei!]

This crap makes me sick to the stomach!
Firstly, much much sadness goes out to that poor child that now has no mother.
Secondly, why the hell was the hit put on this woman?
Was it just a dare?
Regardless, once again, the big fish will get away, the person or people who gave the order for this abhorrant crime.
Not identified. I hope this 15-year old will give it up and name the trash that gave the order. Was this a random killing?

Well, the suggestion is that her ex put the hit in for her, because he was afraid she'd take custody of the child.

Words fail me. £200 for a human life and a kid, who will be (at least) 35 years old when he gets out of prison, probably with nothing to base his future life on (education, job, etc.) Even that hat is pretty worn out by then.

Waste.

What are we shocked about? Is it really the age of the hitboy only? Or isn't it that it has happened amongst ourselves, in the middle of our living place?

In africa things like this happen almost every day in some countries. Boys 13 and 14 year olds not only shoot dead people and shoot in wars in which they have been taught to fight, but along with the older teens or young adult men stoned by drugs and testosteron mutilate and dismember helpless victims with machetes, even commit rape on mutilated women that they had cut of limbs or breasts themselves just seconds before. These conflicts often get encouraged and silenty supported by Western and Russian and Asian politics eyeing certain ressources, often rare ressouces needed for our hightech industries and that they hope to exploit more easily if the clan and civil wars continue or some evil faction dominates the conflict.

This hardly ever makes it to the news, and we comfortably refuse to take note of it, and when we boycott at least blood diamonds, we are thankful for the opportunity to have relieved our conscience. But when a young killer pops up in our homecountries, then suddenly we pretend "to care".

Do we really?

I think we really have to readjust our sensors.

NIMBY, or not in my backyard

its like how they are building that new power plant in my town, I don't care because its in the other side of town, but if its built near my house, I will be protesting too!

I thought gun control was supposed to prevent these things from happening.

On the other hand, do you think that someone in that house owning a gun would've changed anything? This kind of attack isn't something you can defend from, really.

No it's not but according to popular gun control theory the murderer shouldn't have needed a shotgun.

Actually he probably didn't, either. How hard is it to kill a defenseless woman who opens the door carelessly?

Right. So if gun control does what it's advertized to do then why did he need a shotgun and how did he obtain it?

Oh, well, duh. You don't even need to ask that. That's like saying drug control "works"...

Point is, with or without controls, this would've happened. With or without a gun, this probably also would've happened. The cause for it isn't availability or opportunity, the cause for this is socially inept, greedy and immoral people. And possibly the society which leaves such people on the street. This kid had half his family in jail for murder before him, as it is...

[Freiwillige]

Solution simple. Let him hang! In a public square.

There is no justice in this soft world anymore, Hell probably get a play station in his cell

That's my point as well. Gun control does not stop gun crime.
