I understand that people are in a bad place when someone in there family is accused of a crime. But I was just watching on the news and they had a reporter in south carolina that a family had attacked for reporting on there family member that was accused of murder. They had told her to leave and she was not on there property had not approched them an any way and they charged her and started beating on her and using racial slurs at her. I personally think this is crazy. Luckly another reporter did catch it all on tape and the family was arrested for there crime. Why do so many people resort to fighting? I also cant believe that in 08 people are still haveing issues with race.

If they are trying to prove their family aren't murderers then ambushing and attacking a reporting and using racist language while being filmed wasn't a very good idea was it? Some people are just so stupid, now the prosecution can say there's a pattern of violent behaviour in that family they've made everything a whole lot worse for themselves and the relative who is accused of murder.

I meant "reporter", should have read that back before I posted it.

I agree the family just made it worse for there accused family memeber. And landed in jail themselves.
