Although I disagree with "hate crime" legislation I want to follow this story... If history is any indicator this 'animal' will not be charged with a hate crime. Of course, not only do I believe he should not be charged with a "hate crime" I don't believe "hate crime" should be the case if the races were reversed. I am big on successfully prosecuting a murderer for murder, an act that always involves some level of hate - IMO.
July 6, 2005 -- A racist ex-con confessed that he fatally stabbed a beloved mother of two at a White Plains mall because he wanted 'to kill a white person.'
'She was not innocent. She was white,' convicted rapist Phillip Grant confessed in a chilling videotaped statement to cops that was played in White Plains City Court yesterday the same day victim Concetta Russo Carriero was laid to rest.

Westchester DA Jeanine Pirro said she would charge Grant with murder as a hate crime if the panel thought it was appropriate. [We will see?]
