There's no organ ther." The attorney in law even said "Mr Lucero should not have died from the wound."

MR. Conroy's lawyer said that even if Mr. Conroy were guilty, he didn't intend to kill Mr. Lucero. None of the witnesses was present when Marcelo Lucero was murdered, and Mr. Conroy wanted just watch when their friends beat a Hispanic person, said the lawyer.

Mr. Keahon, Conroy's lawyer, also said that his client lied in the first confession to protect Mr. Overton. The wound from Mr. Lucero that night was not too deep, and it was not damage in any organs, he explained. It cut an artery and a vein.

The attack Marcelo Lucero


On November 8, 2008 Marcelo Lucero was killed. Jeffrey Conroy is the principal suspect.

Jeffrey Conroy and six other teenagers were that night locking for Latinos people to hunt.

The prosecutor accused the defendant for killing Mr. Lucero with a knife. The autopsy showed that the cause of death was stab to the chest. Dr. Dawson, who practiced the autopsy founded cocaine. marijuana, and alcohol in the body.

In the ambulance nobody could give him intra venous treatment. For that reason, Marcelo Lucero was delayed for about 40 minutes to get to hospital.

Conroy's lawyer tried to demonstrate that the principal cause of death was the delay in the ambulance, and not the stab to the chest.

3 Tell us the history.


In my opinion the problem is about the racial hate for latino community. They keep attacking, and robbing and nothing charges.
It is a trial against MR Conroy by MR Lucero's murder as a racial hate crime.

The evidence is MR Conroy's knife which had blood from MR Lucero, and bloodstains on MR Conroy jeans.

According with MR Keahon defendant's lawyer, important issue is the 40-minutes lapse of time in which MRLucero lost a lot of blood. It could be the real cause of his death.

THE LATINOS VICTIMS OF RACIAL ATTACKS

This article provides information on the growing problem of racial attacks against latinos.
Latinos have been attacked since many years ego.This problem get a lot of attention now from the news and the police,because Marcelo Lucer's death.
Before that,it wasn't publicated,because the police didn't listen serusly to the victims.

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

My opinion about the article



I think everybody has the same right in this country,and people who come from other countries should not be considered as criminals.

My opinion about the article

My opinion about the article

The Patchogue' population should teach their youth people .They must know that hispanis are no "Animals to Hunt",because we come to this country to help in its economy. Mostly of us are very hard worker and try to give our contribution to a better comunity.
I think the police at Patchogue,NY have to reach people to find in Latinos their targets . As soon as they start working on violence against immigrants , Hispanics population will feel free to walk on the U.S.

Latinos recall pattern of attacks

I can't believe that this attacks still happen

I think it is ridiculous that in this times people act on the basis of their prejudices.right now I feel sad about this cases, where the victim are a specific community,that why I think this a case of discrimination and in this country this things have to be unacceptables.we can't still living in a society where prejudice exist. my questuion is why the people don't teach their child the tolerance and respect differences to other?.. because the childrens do it what their parents do. we have to find effective ways to live and work well togheter.

Latinos Recall Pattern of Attacks Before Killing

I think that the hatred towards Latinos is because different reason. One of the reason could be the education that the teenagers receive at home. The parents don't know what their children do when they are in the streets and alone. The communication between the family member is not always the best.

Evidently exists some hard feelings against the Latino people; it is not only because some of them are illegal; it is against the culture and custom from them. Perhaps some Americans are afraid of losing their identity, or are afraid of being invaded by them.

Whatever the cause is, we need to stop this behavior if we want to have a better community for us, and for our children.

on my own oppinion

I think,why i need to wait for somebody died to take an action.
why the police doesn't nothing,until the problem is biggest?
I thought in this country the law is correctly,but many times this is not the true.
why some white people, doesn't like Hispanics?
why they hate us?
why only for Hispanics?it is because is hard for defend us?
I think, we came to this country for a better life, only for that.
we don,t want to kill no body,we want work only.
I think when Hispanic,s will together everything can change,because some similar happened with the color people.now nobody can say nothing to them , because their has a priority everywhere.

LATINOS RECALL PATTERN OF ATTACKS BEFORE KILLING.

I think this article is Illegal immigrants, especially Latinos should't living in fear. There was a ppattern of many attacks againts Latino immigrant, by white teenage boys. Every attack based on racismo should be classifed as a '' Hate Crime". Many illegal emmigrants do not report the attaks because they fear the police. Latino immigrants don't report racial attacks and crimes because they are in the country illegaly. The many stories about the Racial Attacks are on declined to commentary.

I thinks is necesary everybody take help one to one. Is very important respect the persons.
No is important the sacial status, religion. race, origen the life is the life.

In my opinion : When I see racial attachs, I will call the police.

MY OPINION ABOUT THE ARTICLE

I think this article is very interesting, because it touch a issue not for patchouge but for all country.Where millions of immmigrants are sufering all kind of attacks by people who believe that they are the real american, when they were immigrants one or two generation before. The worst part of this problem are the politiciams who no wants to reform the immigrations laws in behalf of all immigrants living here. Instead they every day wants to made tough policies against ilegal immigration. This is the reason that fuel a nationalisty feelings against immigants which resolt is the racial hite.

Opinions own

My idea about this articulo is that racial hate permit people against people. The police they don't listen when latin people complain about agressive white people. Maybe when more latin people became polices then latin people will be listened. The History of this country will change when latin people they will are more than white people. Many latin people they don't have confidence in the police and autorities. The animal instint mark its own place and they don't permit any intruder in side your zone. when people believe that your country is your house then they don't accept other people into. It is very difficult to live how civiliced people.

LATINOS RECALL

LATINOS RECALL

My opion about the article

I think this article is very important for all people especialment for Ecuatorian people because have more descrimination for imigrants . The imigrants are responsability, honesty and work very hard. This is Injusticie criminal several of his attackers.The police don't caming at time had police negligence.But the problems began long before Mr. Lucero's death. And the series of attacks involved far more tennagers. the principal was Jeffrey Conroy .

Latinos recall patters of attacks before killing

I think the situation in patchogue long island town, is cause the immigrants people cant report the assaults. Because they don't have legal status in this country, and they afraid talk to the police.
the teenager abused immigrants people because of racism, a lot of discrimination in this country everywhere.
The police sometimes ignore the reports and the complains of violence immigrants.
Its not fear the Innocent people death in this situation.
They continue attacking and robbing and nothing changes. There had to be a death was Mr lucero
maybe one day the violence stop, and the police protect, and listen the immigrants people and arrest the teenager.

danilo's opinion about marcelo lucero's article.

I think that, so many latinos people living here in the United States ,are scared about what is happening with the racial hatred. We can see the news on the TV ,on the newspaper,and from friends. About racial crime,harassment, muggings, assaults, violences, attacks, and robbery. Who have been made specialy from teenagers, and the latinos do not want to report anything to the police, because they think, maybe they will be on trouble. The police could ask so many questions and some of them dont know how to write or talk right and they dont want to be envolved in any case with the police, and they think also the police wont pay attention to whatever they say. wich is not good, because there is no other way to take care of what is happening. So if we see something, we have to say something .This is the only way to undern control, and if the police take control they will stop this before the bad things happen.

Latinos recall pattem of attacks before killing

My own opinion.
According to the article in new york times, the discrimination attacking and affecting the immigrant is because they think everybody are the same ,but a lot of Latinos are good citizens.
even thou they blame the people,they don't know who you are or where you come from. But one of the big problems in this country is the police,because they ignore all this things.

Latinos Recall Pattern of Attacks Before Killing

My opinion personally is that all cases the violent are original is for hate racial that exist.
This attacks toward the people Latinos are also product the gang of teenagers , the victim never reported to the police because of their illegal status in this country.

OPINION

I think about the article Latinos attacks what will have more policeman in the towns,where is happening mostly attacks against Hispanic people and the authorities pay attention went the cases reported.

What the states have several laws against attackers, whatever age them have.


JENNY

My oponion abaut the article


The problems began long before. Mr luceros death and by the mens accounts,the series of attacks involved for more teenagers. The problems is about the racial heate for Latinos community and discrimination.
