A Chicago-area landlord was arrested and charged with murder and hate crimes after authorities said he stabbed and killed a 6-year-old boy and seriously wounded his mother, allegedly because the tenants are Muslim.
Just gonna pop in for a moment. Murder has its own charges. A hate crime, in this case, will tack on additional charges. Potentially keep them from harming their community for longer.
Of course jail is privatized and the perpetrator will no doubt be abused, either by guards or inmates.
The American penal system is flawed to its core, but societies do have a need to house harmful individuals. Where that line is is up for debate by better minds than mine.
