Actually it's even worse than just what you say as one source adds:

"An even more cruel fate awaited her! Channon Christian, was beaten and gang-raped in "many ways" for FOUR DAYS by all of them, while they took turns urinating on her."Then they cut off her breasts" and put chemicals in her mouth ... and then murdered her."

It seems they were both dismembered a la Jeffrey Dahmer and I can only imagine where the mainstream media is. This is the kind of thing that makes me angry. The media has no clue about the average American and just thinks if they report something like this a bunch of white people (esp. Southerners) will just go on a rampage attacking black people everywhere and this is not true. I totally understand that almost all black people are very good people who totally condone this horrendous act but at the same time I do think the media is over concerned nowadays with the sins of white people so that a certain percentage of black people and other minorities think it's okay to be prejudiced on a regular basis. Of course there are plenty of white people that are racist but at least that's known for being wrong and they are recognized as idiots. On the other hand, some minorities and white liberals think if you hate white people, esp. in the South, you might just have a good reason and even be consider "enlightened". They rarely get to see how some of their bias would look if it was carried out. Prejudice should be considered wrong regardless of race but some people are still too stuck in the past.
