    Let's see.
    Cannon Hinnant: Massive manhunt that caught the killer in less than 24 hours. Killer in jail and charged with murder already.

    George Floyd: Murder caught on video, so the whole world knows who murdered him. Still everyone involved is out walking the streets, even though they finally have been charged after massive protests.

    Breonna Taylor: Murderers still not charged. The officers lied to get a no knock warrant, invaded someone's house for looking for someone that was already in police custody. Didn't identify themselves as cops and murdered an innocent bystander when the home owner tried to protect himself from home invasion. Bullets fired by the cops so erratically they went into a house next door where kids were asleep. All that's happened is they lost their jobs.

    Want to tell me again which is news worthy?

    Cannon's murder had similar amount of news coverage to the murder of Elijah Al-Amin's murder last year.

    Yeah Cannon Hinnant,it was completely ignored by the left and they are still protesting George Floyd who was a lifelong criminal,not a 5 year old child.So cut the crap man you know #### well if it was a black child shot by a 25 year old white guy we'd never hear the end of it.

    Cochran should gave add "if you're an idiot" to that rhyme.

    Tell that to DA’s office who let Simpson put the glove on. The minute they did that,the case was lost.

    Ignored? Since it's a household name how is it ignored?
    No, your inability to look at the facts of each case is the exact reason there are still protests going on.
    Sorry you can't see past the color of the person's skin, or if they were wearing a uniform when they committed murder, but the cases are so unequal it's pathetic one group keeps bringing it up like it means anything.

    Might as well bring up the fact it didn't make national news when my trailer had a flat tire last night, I mean it's about as relevant. The story of Hinnant was covered, it was concluded until the person in jail goes to trial so nothing to report. The protests keep happening because police keep murdering people of a specific race. Therefore the news keeps covering it.

    Here's a thought. Maybe if the police will stop murdering and beating people, no matter their color, this would all stop getting the media attention you believe is one sided.

    Complete nonsense, the left tried to make the most of that.There was almost no coverage of Cannon Hinnant because most of the media is liberal.

    Looks like CNN & The Washington Post covered it.
