And justice for all?
What if a serial killer starts targeting black and brown women and men living in South Central Los Angeles? What if he/she has been doing this for TWENTY-THREE years?
No press conferences. No Nancy Grace self-righteously bloviating on tv. No twenty-four hour news coverage. No household names. No wellknown pictures of the victims. No periodic updates. No catchy name (until this paper thought one up). No community announcements. No police rewards. No political outcry. Hell, no family advised that their dead loved ones were the victims of a serial killer, either. No press conference from the police chief, who still found time to comment on Lindsey Lohan's sexlife and tout the capture of the Silverware Bandit.(Yes, I do mean a guy who was stealing cutlery). Nothing at all, except in the LA Weekly: The Grim Sleeper Serial Killer
