15-year-old Lesandro “Junior” Guzman-Feliz is walking in the Bronx when multiple gang members set on him to murder him. No way to get away, he tries to hide in a corner store, no chance to hide. His attackers all older guys, men. And as a group. Utilizing extreme violence they drag him out of the business while threatening the store workers, he claws at the wall trying to stay inside somehow anyhow but he is not strong enough. Outside they punch, kick, stab, and chop him over and over. A bunch of brutal cowards. Not caring about the consequences of their actions. And allegedly all over some stupid rap tape where a gang members sister is in the background having sex, something the victim wasn't even involved in.
Mistaken identity and a sorry on facebook. You kill a guy and then it turns out it's the wrong guy "oops, sorry".
There is also the element of imported violence. The attackers have connections to the Dominican Republic, they are members of a Dominican gang. Where they come from such violence is well known. They went to 1st world New York and practiced their Dominican 3rd world violence there on a innocent young teenager who had no chance.
Make no mistake, murder was their intention. If they wanted to beat him they could have easily done so without killing him, any one of these guys was big enough to beat him by themselves. They showed up as a group and with knives and machetes, and they used them. They are killers and they were probably already killers wherever they came from.
