The 17-year-old suspect from Garwood — a son of a retired police officer and the nephew of the Westfield police chief — was charged Wednesday with the first-degree murders of Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas.

Relatives of Niiotis said the teen had been stalking her for months — something the teen suspect acknowledged on livestreams of his MLB co-op games, which attracted thousands of followers on TikTok.

Why this is not heavily covered in the news? What is going on?

Because Trump is president and mainstream news has been essentially directly threatened by him.

Idk if you noticed the extra-legal nazi takeover of USA? Are you not aware we live in a post-truth, post-law, post-rights world?

I noticed that at least 20 years ago, and not because it started then.

Not to naysay, the dude is a "nice guy" PoS. But the link is tenuous at best at the moment. its a clip of him saying one of the girls is a dumb ass for a tiktok video she shared that was negative towards charlie kirk.

Basically, it seems he was a stalker and killed her (and her friend) for some reason, but I doubt the kirk thing was the main reason. Motive is not clear yet, other than the obvious parts (stalking, probably liked her, but got rejected, she may have gotten a recent BF, jeolous, various anti-female other sentiments).

Because it goes against the narrative attempting to be pushed by the mainstream media i.e. Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, etc. They're not directly responsible for everything that makes it to the news, no, but they are quick to fine/fire any execs who go against their mission, so eventually only sycophants and cowards remain

Two words: Brendan Carr.

It took Trump little time to install a department head that would use the FCC to interfere in corporate mergers and acquisitions - like the Soviet Union of old would (but the GOP's not communist - oh, no.. not at al!) - and as the corporations that own the broadcast are held hostage to the FCC.. Welp.. there it is.
