In Charlotte and Mecklenburg County one murder happens every 3 days. They make headlines and within a week the victim and the killer are forgotten only to be replaced by the next victim and the next killer
Since January 1, there have been 51 murders. Of those victims 2 where hispanic and one was white. The rest are African American.
Of those arrested for these crimes all are African American. Of the 51 cases only 13 have determined and arrested a suspect.
This from actual court records.

At approximately 1927 hours, the victim was shot and ran behind the Hup In where he collapsed. Video surveillance shows tan colored SUV traveling outbound on Milton Road with the two passenger side windows down.
That vehicle appears to slow down and then speed off at the same time the victim is shot.
A short time after the shooting, detectives received Crime Stoppers tip from witness who saw someone shooting towards the incident location from gold Toyota highlander with temp tags before driving away and making U-turn about blocks away.
Further review of surveillance video showed the tan Highlander traveling inbound on Milton after the shooting, then on The Plaza Road to E. Sugar Creek Road.
The suspect vehicle is seen on Sugar Creek Road traveling towards I-85 and go through LPR at W. Sugar Creek Road near Cinderella Road. At approximately 1934 hours, the suspect vehicle hit the LPR with temp tag on the back.
The vehicle turned onto I-85 south and then exited on Statesville Road.
The suspect vehicle was located unoccupied in the parking lot at 3607 Griers Grove Road.
Video surveillance from 3607 Griers Grove Rd. showed three males walking from the direction of the suspect vehicle towards the apartment complex at approximately 1942 hours.
At 1944 hours, the same males were observed on video surveillance in Northcross Apartments walking into the rear entrance at 1827 Griers Grove Road, Apt D.
Detectives obtained and reviewed video from other apartments in Northcross Apartments as well as video in the apartment complex before the murder.
One of the males was tall and of large build and was wearing black hoodie and black pants.
Before the incident, the larger male wearing all black could be seen on video entering the passenger seat of the tan Toyota Highlander in the parking lot outside of 1827 Griers Grove Rd. Apt. D.
The tall, thin male wearing the black hoodie and shorts entered the front passenger seat, and the smaller male wearing the light colored hoodie entered the back passenger seat.
Officers familiar with the apartment complex and the people in the area identified the tall, thin male as Darius Baptist.
Crime Scene Search processed the suspect vehicle, the tan Toyota Highlander, recovered from 3607 Beatties Ford Rd. and lifted numerous latent prints from outside and inside the vehicle. The Crime Lab determined that prints lifted from the exterior front right door belonged to Darius Baptist.
Based on these facts, am requesting: an arrest warrant for Darius Baptist for the murder of Dontre Williams and for conspiracy to commit murder.
- Dontre Williams the victimwas a known drug dealer but the Mecklenburg County DA doesn't prosecute drug crimes.
- The CMPD Crime Lab is underfunded and incapable of efficiently handling the task of identifying contraband.
- Charlotte is over run with fake tags, and stolen vehicles.
- Antonio Ray is a violent offender who should not have been on the streets of Charlotte.
38 unsolved murders in 6 months is crazy! That’s 38 suspects free in the community at large. Sounds like black areas, so Indians and Asians are safe.
ReplyDeleteCharlotte doesn’t as my care that we have a genocide of Black men going on. A whole generation getting whipped out. When is the city going to step up and fund our institutions?
ReplyDeleteIt has been a solid 160 years since the end of the civil war and the end of slavery. The government in one way or another has been subsidizing “people of color” and giving them a leg up in all kinds of programs that never seem to work. When as a collective race will there be any taking responsibility for the actions of bad actors and persons who cannot seem to conform the social mores and norms that everyone else lives by?
