According to prosecutors, Christopher was riding his bike on Nantucket Drive just after 4 p.m. on May 30, 2009 when he was approached by six teens. An argument erupted and two teens punched the boy in the face, rupturing a vertebral artery in the back of his neck and causing his death.
George and another teen, who was 14 at the time, pleaded guilty to manslaughter in December 2009. Each was sentenced to the custody of a juvenile detention center until he’s rehabilitated or turns 21.
Police never charged Ali or the other three young men who approached Christopher. Prosecutors said they violated no laws.
Jaklitsch, however, argued that under civil law the three juveniles and Ali were “just as culpable” as the two who threw the punches. In the lawsuit, he said they “encouraged and incited” the assault on Christopher and then “blocked him from escaping.”
Those murderers will get what they deserve. Fuck I hate black privilege.
