I think there is a real double standard going on here.
If an inner city black athlete had killed his girlfriend by repeatedly slamming her head against the wall, it would be perceived much, much differently than the rich white kid doing it.
How many times do we have to read about how great a kid he is?
Well, there appears to be pretty strong evidence here that he is NOT a great kid, at least not by the definitions I use.
I suspect his punishment will be much less than if he were a black kid. And that's a shame.
