Phoenix police had to apologize earlier this month after Talan’s parents Becky and Travis Renner received special valet parking services from the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office cops.

A deputy was seen pulling the millionaire gym owners’ white Tesla Model X into a private car park so they could avoid running a gauntlet of journalists.

Authorities took months to name the suspects, with enraged locals who demanded justice and claimed the young boys’ powerful families were preventing justice from being served.

    Yawn

    Oh look, another sociopath murderer whose out of touch rich parents will bail out and then will give him a free ride through a pay-to-win degree at an ivy league school catapulting him into a useless but well-titled corporate position so we can have yet another narcissistic [choose one or more: pedophile/rapist/murderer] in a position of power.

      Capitalism is a predatory system. Wealth is a factor in why humans either have children or don’t.

      We are breeding paycthopaths to the detriment of society.

      If this gets buried then we’ve finally made the complete jump. We have always had a double standard but catching an elite like this used to mean they’d be sentenced as harshly as the rest of us. The jump by the by, is from a wealthy capitalist elite to an actual aristocracy.
