John Spooner Guilty In Darius Simmons Murder!

John Henry Spooner was found guilty of murdering Darius Simmons, a 13 year old teen who was minding his business when the old geezer shot him at point blank range.

Another young teenager loses his life after a foolish old man shoots him. The old man claims that the 13-year old teenager stole his firearms.

The controversy in Milwaukee, Wisconsin has driven the junk food media to say another "Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman event".

Darius Simmons was gunned down by old bigot.

[John] Henry Spooner, suspected 13-year old Darius Simmons of stealing three shotguns from his home.

Spooner confronted Simmons as he took out the trash around 10:00 a.m. on May 31, 2012. When Simmons denied involvement and his mother told Spooner to go away, Spooner allegedly produced a handgun and fatally shot the youth.

When police arrived, Spooner told them he had shot Simmons. However, they questioned Simmons’ mother, Patricia Larry, for two hours and searched her home as Simmons’ body was laying in the street, according to Bishop Tavis Grant, a field director for Rev. Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow PUSH Coalition.

Court records show that police previously removed 16 guns from Spooner’s house in December 2006. His reclaim form said the guns were taken because he had harbored a felon as a guest. A judge returned the guns to Spooner in April of 2007. Hours before the shooting, Spooner had met with Alderman Bob Donovan inside George Webb’s restaurant. He told Donovan that robbers had taken $3,000 worth of shotguns from his home two days prior. Spooner also said that he suspected his neighbors were involved and was upset that police hadn’t arrested anyone.

Donovan said that Spooner had been burglarized many times before and even installed surveillance cameras outside his house. During their breakfast together, Spooner may have hinted what was to come. Donovan claims Spooner told him, “there are other ways to deal with situations.”

But when asked if this meant a vigilante response, Donovan said, “I’m not going to speculate,” but that’s what you wonder now.”

Due to the striking similarities between this case and the Trayvon Martin trial, jury selection Monday focused on weeding out jurors who might be influenced by the latter’s outcome. Some jurors admitted they would have a tough time not noting patterns between both cases.

“There was a group that was unhappy about the injustice in the Zimmerman case,” one juror candidate said in court Monday. “They hoped there wouldn’t be another injustice in this case.

Patricia Larry is the mother of slain teen Darius Simmons.
The candidate, who was white, was ultimately removed from the jury, saying that ”I am angry. I feel like the system is failing. I see black teenagers getting arrested for stuff that white people would get ticketed for.”

Spooner is charged with first-degree intentional homicide and was found guilty of this murder. He faces life in prison if convicted.


Spooner's trial represents another issue with this "SHOOT FIRST, QUESTION LAST" nonsense.

If the foolish old man would have called law enforcement, this young boy would be alive and the actual thief would be caught.

This example of human excrement is what I think of George Zimmerman and any other person who gets off after killing an unarmed person. If there's anything I could say justice was served!

Darius Simmons was minding his business. He didn't commit any crime. When this foolish man reactionary hatred of Black men caused him to kill, it opened the notion that in this mind was thoughts of "natural born criminal".
