The Silent Crime

One good thing about writing my own weblog is that I get to choose
what I write about. And that means I can write about things that are
1) important, and 2) underreported elsewhere. I don't have a boss that
tells me to write about the current media darling of the week or about
subjects that have oversaturated the media everywhere else. This story
is a perfect case in point about what's wrong with the media today in
the US, and much of the rest of the world. Here is one of the worst,
if not the worst, criminal case you will ever read, but the wierd
thing is, the national media are ignoring it. Why is that?
Caution: very graphic details follow.
Hugh Christopher Newsom, Jr., 23, and Channon Gail Christian, 21,
lived in Knoxville, Tennessee. The couple was out on a date after
midnight on January 7, 2007, when they were carjacked and kidnapped at
gunpoint by four men, and later a woman as well. They were then driven
to another neighborhood, where over the next few days they were both
tortured, gang raped, and murdered. By some accounts they were
mutilated as well.
In front of Channon, Christopher was first tortured, beaten and gang-
raped by the men in turn. Then he was shot, body burned to conceal
evidence, wrapped in a blanket, and later dumped behind some railroad
tracks. Some accounts claim that his genitals were also cut off,
perhaps while he was still alive.
But believe it or not, Channon's fate was even worse. She was kept
alive for three more days, and repeatedly raped and tortured during
that time. The torture included beatings, forcing her to drink
cleaning fluid, urinating on her, and cutting off at least one of her
breasts. She was eventually murdered, and her body chopped up and
placed in five different garbage bags.
Fortunately, the perpetrators were caught relatively quickly. One left
his fingerprints inside Christian's vehicle, and when officers arrived
to question him, her body parts were found.
These grisly details are emerging now because the prosecutors have
completed their investigation and the defendants are awaiting trial.
So why has this received only local news coverage?
1) The victims are white while the four men and one woman accused in
the crime are all black
2) Because it doesn't involve any celebrities
Instead, during this period of time we have been inundated by the Duke
Rape Case fraud, Anna Nicole Smith death, and of course, the notorious
Paris Hilton DWI. Stories like these make it very clear what types of
crimes the media are interested in. There are also shades of the
Wichita murders of 2000, another horrific case that was totally
ignored by the media. Nicholas Stix at American Renaissance describes
this whole unfortunate situation perfectly. Charlie Daniels also
mentions it on his Soapbox, and there is a huge commentary at La Shawn
Barber's Corner.
All the above sites mention the racial angle, and they are correct. If
this was a white on black crime, you can bet every media outlet around
the country would have descended on the town. But they don't mention
the celebrity or notoriety angle. If these victims were the slightest
bit well-known, ie if they were wealthy or had ever appeared on
television, the media frenzy would also be in full swing.
On the other side of the coin, you have the despicable Svengalimedia,
a blatant white-hating web site with headlines like "I hope Prince
Harry dies in Iraq" or of one murdered white girl: "snooty slave
heiress deserves to be murdered by slave descendants". I refuse to
link to such an atrocious web site, but if you want to find it,
there's always Google or Yahoo. About this crime, their claim is that
Newsom and Christian actually wandered into a black area to buy drugs,
which is a common claim they make about almost all murdered whites.
But even if that were true (and no evidence for it anyway), how would
it justify a crime like this?
In any case, the media is not the only story here. Let's not forget
that two people were tortured and brutally murdered, and we are
fortunate that the perpetrators were found very quickly. My thoughts
and prayers go out to the Christian and Newsom families.
