This comment takes quite a journey.

Evidence: the car had Polish license plates.

Conclusion: The 17 years old was likely linked to drug dealing and to financial scam, driving recklessly and running away from police.

It's like Sherlock Holmes deducing an entire life story from a missing shirt button. Unfortunately that isn't possible in real life and this chain of logic is absurd.

Further, it's literally in support of "well, it's okay to kill him, he was probably a bad egg". Which...is certainly something you can believe, but it makes you pretty awful to do so.

That might have been relevant evidence to include in the comment. However, these are unproven claims made by the same organization that murdered him and then lied about it. It is not particularly strong evidence given the context.

Which of those are convictions? Which of those convictions are capital offenses?

Get out of here with this "he was no angel" stuff.
