News Break: No Hates Crime Charges For Marines



In June two U.S. Marines were arrested in Savannah, Georgia after viciously beating a gay man they claimed had winked at them. The victim was hospitalized after suffering two seizures at the site of the attack. The case prompted national outrage and a local protest vigil after the men were only charged with misdemeanor assault. Just recently a joint investigation by the FBI and local police concluded that the case did not merit any hate crimes charges.
