Phoenix police had to apologize earlier this month after Talan’s parents Becky and Travis Renner received special valet parking services from the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office cops.
A deputy was seen pulling the millionaire gym owners’ white Tesla Model X into a private car park so they could avoid running a gauntlet of journalists.
Authorities took months to name the suspects, with enraged locals who demanded justice and claimed the young boys’ powerful families were preventing justice from being served.
This is fuckin tragic. I didn’t need to read that. I hope justice is served albeit delayed at this point. This kid deserves time for violently attacking another kid, bragging about it, and trying to get away with no consequences. Yes he’s young, but not too young to pay for this kind of crime.
That’s not normal behaviour. Kid needs to be tried as an adult and locked up for life. Then mental health evaluation consistently with a chance to be released after 25 years with good behaviour.
Fire the whole police department too
I’d say go a step further. He took an innocent life knowingly and showed complete lack of remorse, why should his life continue? Is there really a benefit to society in the slightest to allow him to continue existing?
Just give him the death sentence and let his parents cope with the fact they failed at raising a child so badly that it had to be put down.
No, because the death penalty shouldn’t exist. But he should absolutely get 20 to life with parole dependent on mental health evaluation. Just like any other 17 year old who did this.
Disregarding the general braindead nature of this take, if anything the parents should be sentenced to death for creating this human and allowing him to turn out this way.
