Judge Paul Coghlan on Thursday described Garg as an "innocent and random victim" but said the crime was spontaneous and he accepted that his attacker, now 17, was remorseful and had no intention of killing when he went to the park.
The judge also ruled that it was a crime of opportunity rather than race. |
I'm not so sure of the relevance of Stout's article. It's all too easy to call 'racism' even when it's not. As tragic as it is, a random park stabbing of someone who happens to be Indian by someone who happens to be white is totally different from a kid being constantly bullied because he's of Chinese descent. |
