dbo:abstract
  • Channon Gail Christian (21 años) y Hugh Christopher Newsom (23 años) de Knoxville, Tennessee fueron secuestrados la noche del 6 de enero de 2007 cuando el auto de Christian fue robado y se los llevaron como rehenes a una casa en alquiler, donde ambos fueron violados, torturados y asesinados.​ Cinco personas fueron arrestadas y acusadas del crimen. El jurado acusó a cuatro de los sospechosos de asesinato, robo, secuestro, violación y robo, mientras que el quinto fue acusado con cargos federales de robo de vehículos.​ De los cuatro acusados a nivel estatal, tres: Letalvis D. Cobbins (25 años), su medio hermano Lemaricus Davidson (24 años) y George Thomas (27 años) tenían previas condenas por delitos violentos. Después del juicio, Davidson fue condenado a muerte por inyección letal. Cobbins y Thomas fueron condenados a cadena perpetua sin posibilidad de libertad condicional. Vanessa Coleman, novia de Cobbins de 18 años, fue condenada y sentenciada a 53 años de prisión (luego reducido a 35 años) por facilitar los crímenes, y Eric Dewayne Boyd (34 años) fue sentenciado a 18 años de prisión en una cárcel federal por facilitar la atrocidad al robar el vehículo, luego fue acusado en 2018 por cargos a nivel estatal en el mismo caso más de una década después.​ Inicialmente, todas las condenas estatales fueron anuladas por mala conducta del juez que presidió el caso, quien desde entonces ha sido excluido. Los nuevos juicios se programaron originalmente para el verano y el otoño de 2012. Las órdenes para los juicios de Davidson y Cobbins fueron anuladas posteriormente por la Corte Suprema del Estado de Tennessee, y sus condenas y sentencias se mantienen. Los juicios de Coleman y Thomas resultaron en condenas, pero con una sentencia reducida para Coleman (35 años) y la misma sentencia para Thomas. (es)
  • Channon Gail Christian, aged 21, and Hugh Christopher Newsom Jr., aged 23, were from Knoxville, Tennessee, United States. They were kidnapped on the evening of January 6, 2007, when Christian's vehicle was carjacked. The couple were taken to a rental house. Both of them were raped, tortured, and murdered. Four males and one female were arrested, charged, and convicted in the case. In 2007, a grand jury indicted Letalvis Darnell Cobbins, Lemaricus Devall Davidson, George Geovonni Thomas, and Vanessa Lynn Coleman on counts of kidnapping, robbery, rape, and murder. Also in 2007, Eric DeWayne Boyd was indicted by a federal grand jury of being an accessory to a carjacking, resulting in serious bodily injury to another person, and misprision of a felony. In 2018, Boyd was indicted on state-level charges of kidnapping, robbery, rape, and murder. Four of the five defendants (Eric Boyd, Letalvis Cobbins, Lemaricus Davidson, and George Thomas) had multiple prior felony convictions. After a jury trial, Davidson was convicted and sentenced to death by lethal injection. Cobbins and Thomas were convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole. Vanessa Coleman was convicted of facilitating the crimes and sentenced to 53 years. Eric Boyd was convicted at the federal level and sentenced to 18 years in federal prison for being an accessory after the fact to carjacking. He was convicted on state level charges over a decade later in 2019. All of the state convictions were initially set aside because of misconduct by the presiding judge, who has since been disbarred. Retrials were originally slated for the summer and fall of 2012. The orders for retrials of Davidson and Cobbins were subsequently overturned by the Tennessee State Supreme Court, and their convictions and sentences stand. The Coleman and Thomas retrials resulted in convictions, but with a reduced sentence for Coleman and the same sentence for Thomas. Controversy arose due to differing interpretations regarding the media's coverage of the murders. Many people believed that the crimes were ignored because the victims were white while the perpetrators were black. Others, including journalists, disagreed with this assertion. Efforts have been made to remember and honor Christian and Newsom. In 2014, new laws named after the victims were introduced in Tennessee. Both victims have also had named after them. (en)
  • Хью Кристофер Ньюсом (англ. Hugh Christopher Newsom, 23 года) и Шеннон Гейл Кристиан (англ. Channon Gail Christian, 21 год) — пара влюблённых из города Ноксвилл, Теннесси. 7 января 2007 года они были похищены из своего автомобиля, подверглись зверским пыткам, были оба изнасилованы и затем убиты. Перед судом в качестве обвиняемых предстали пятеро афроамериканцев, из которых четверо обвиняются в собственно пытках и убийстве, и один — в содействии в похищении автомобиля. Согласно сообщениям газет, пара отправилась на свидание в местный ресторан вечером 6 января 2007, но не вернулась домой. После обнаружения тел сообщалось, что мужчина был изнасилован, в том числе при помощи постороннего предмета, а женщину преступники насиловали в течение нескольких часов, пытали, поливали отбеливателем и заливали его ей в горло, пытаясь таким образом уничтожить следы своего ДНК. Преступники были осуждены. (ru)
