Las Vegas teens accused of intentionally hitting, killing bicyclist
Two teens accused of intentionally hitting and killing a bicyclist and then fleeing the scene made an initial appearance in a Las Vegas courtroom Thursday to face murder charges as adults in a crime that has captured national attention.
Jesus Ayala, 18, who was 17 at the time of the alleged crime, and Jzamir Keys, 16, are facing murder charges for targeting 64-year-old bicyclist Andreas “Andy” Probst and capturing on video the moment they swerved to hit him from behind, Las Vegas Metropolitan police said.
The retired California police chief was riding his bicycle in a designated bike lane near Tenaya Way and Centennial Parkway on the morning of Aug. 14 when the suspects — in a stolen car — struck him. Probst later died at the hospital.

8 News Now reached out to Ayala’s mother by phone.
“I don’t know why he did this,” she said. “I don’t know if God can forgive this.”
The 8 News Now Investigators reached out to Keys’ mother by phone. She initially hung up and then responded to a text message stating her family was not making any statements or addressing any accusations without their legal team.
“My son’s side of the story will be told, ‘the truth,’ not the inaccuracies the media will try to portray,” the text read.
Zero accountability.

Fuck, that video is disturbing and disgusting. There is no fucking “truth”. The kid and his mother should both fry.

Amoral and no value for life. I'm not sure that's something you can "teach" someone. These kids are pure evil. Jzamir's mom should have her ratchet ass thrown in jail alongside her baby boy—the only 'truth' is that she raised a demon child.

It almost always goes back to the parents not teaching their kids not to commit crimes and not to kill people. The parent creates the monsters.

I'm sadly reminded of a hot, blond Aussie who was attending college somewhere in the Midwest.
He went out jogging one morning in 2013 and was shot dead in the back by some black teenagers who were driving by.
They targeted him simply because he was white and blond.

Which means she thinks maybe God CAN forgive him for committing a senseless, cold-blooded murder….as long as he’s not gay, bi, or trans — then he can go straight to hell!

R14 go start your own thread, Mr. Whataboutism. We discuss those incidents every time they happen. We’re discussing this crime here. Are you trying to say this man’s life didn’t matter, because other crimes have occurred in the past? What are you trying to cover up?

It will be adults who will make the decision on how to appropriately punish them for the heinous murder.

R12 It did, but I misremembered some of it, so let me clear things up.
Turns out the Aussie student wasn't blond but was attending college in Oklahoma.
The three suspects were three underage teenagers (two blacks, one white).
One of the black teens targeted him as they drove by and shot him.

I wonder if the driver/killer made those two little horn beeps purposely on camera to diminish his responsibility? The defense attorney will definitely blame the cyclist for ignoring the horn beeps, and also for not wearing a helmet.

The driver wanted the cyclist to turn around and look at him. As he killed him. Wanted to see his face as he killed him. What pieces of absolute psycho shit. They will be in for a long time.

A lot of discussion on Twitter about these two (obviously one Hispanic and one Black) being both officially booked as "white".

The kid honked the horn to be an asshole - like "Beep beep Roadrunner" or something. I doubt he was even thinking about his future court case.
When I was in high school and my friends and I would walk along parts of a main road in my area that didn't have sidewalks there were assholes from my school who would honk their horn and then veer their car into us, forcing us off the road. They thought it was a hoot.

Vile piles of garbage.
There should be an enhancement on "thrill" crimes when it was clearly done for laughs - like this crime or those idiots who throw rocks from overpasses and cause drivers to crash.

I saw three feral scholars recently and they were standing in front of and blocking a busy entrance, while puffing big clouds of weed smoke into the air. As I and others squeezed by, not wanting to provoke the concrete dwelling species, a huge cloud was blown in my face and I said “fuck..!!”
One of the animals proceeded to tell me that “if said that again, you gunna be a de@d n——, next time say excuse me!”
I guess I committed a disrespectin’

There was someone on one of the predictions threads awhile back, who said that eventually these types of hate crimes would ratchet up, and there would be a collective shrug because the woke liberals would go “oh well, that’s what they get”.

Is Jzamir pronounced "jizz-a-mirror"?
I wonder what was the inspiration for that. It makes me think of a meth head, desperately jacking off to their own reflection.

I bicycle everywhere - have a car but hate driving. First, these two teens are human garbage. Utter piles of rotting shit. Second, I am always concerned when I bike. I do have drivers swerve to "punish pass" me. They also pull out in front of me, yell, and throw trash. But my primary concern is all the drivers on their fucking phones. Texting, face timing, not paying any attention. And here in the suburbs, they all have these monster suvs and trucks, so could easily hit me and barely know. But drivers who intentionally terrorize cyclists need to rot someplace for a very long time.

R53 I knew a guy who was killed by a distracted driver while changing the tire of his pickup truck on the shoulder of a two-lane highway. Needless to say, I‘d call triple-A and wait outside my car a safe distance from traffic if my car was disabled on the shoulder. Also, my days of bike riding on city streets ended when cell phones became popular. I think anyone cycling in the streets today has a death wish.
