You don’t hate the media mob enough…
Conservatives on X shredded MSNBC for posting a piece about the guilty verdict in the Laken Riley murder case; she was killed by an illegal migrant gang member.
MSNBC’s headline: “Laken Riley’s killer never stood a chance.”
The killer, Jose Ibarra, was found guilty on all ten counts and sentenced to life without parole.
X users unloaded on MSNBC for the framing of the title.
“You know who never stood a chance? Laken Riley. The actual victim,” conservative commentator @AGHamilton29 remarked on the social media platform.

From Fox News:
MSNBC’s article made the point that the verdict for Ibarra, who was convicted on multiple counts of murder and other crimes and sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole, was “never in doubt,” as it was a “hopeless case” for the defense team.
“For the defense, this was a hopeless case. The defense did the best it could with bad facts. It almost surely knew it was going to lose,” MSNBC legal analyst Danny Cevallos wrote.
Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) interpreted the headline as sympathetic to Riley’s murderer. He wrote, “Laken Riley’s killer is now the victim, according to MSNBC.”

Donald Trump Jr. blasted MSNBC, saying “You literally can’t make up this level of depravity. These people are sick. The guy is a murderer. He’s an illegal alien that killed an innocent young woman, but MSNBC would rather go to bat for him. However, much you hate MSNBC, it’s not enough!”

“Ask yourself: Why is MSNBC writing sympathetic headlines for an illegal alien monster and killer? Why is MSNBC’s ‘legal analyst’ Danny Cevallos ok with this headline?” former GOP communications person Steve Guest wrote.
