There were two major crimes committed here. One, of course, was the coldblooded murder of an innocent man. The other major crime was committed by the court when it sentenced this worthless piece of shit, by then 16, to only 21 years in prison.
All the sob-sisters will no doubt say that he just made a mistake because, at the age of 14, his brain had not yet been fully developed, and a short prison sentence will give him the opportunity to become a productive citizen. I say horseshit! The only mistake he made was to brag about the coldblooded calculated killing. And fuck all those 'hug-a-lil-thug' advocates. The only opportunity he should have been granted was to eat three squares of prison fare each day for the rest of his rotten life.
LIFE IS HARD; IT’S HARDER WHEN YOU’RE STUPID (OR HAVE A BIG MOUTH)

On September 9, 2011, Deantre Darnell Crawford was 14 years old. Francisco Victor Menesses was 38. Their lives intersected when Crawford wanted to find out if he had the guts to kill someone. He shot the homeless Menesses to death as he was riding his bicycle on the way back to a homeless encampment. And then he was stupid enough to brag about having done so. (He shot the guy twice in the back. Real gutsy move.) Crawford also took the victim’s bicycle after the murder.
He was on a community service program at the time due to other “youthful indiscretions.” One of his peers ratted him out.
Crawford was charged as an adult. He pleaded out and they dropped the theft charge. He is dong 11 years for voluntary manslaughter and ten years for various enhancements. Crawford will now do something useful and contribute to the employment of state correctional officers for at least ten years or so.
