Freddy Akoa - Family Photo
Freddy Akoa, the Portland man found dead in his Cumberland Avenue apartment this month, had been beaten, kicked and bashed in the head with furniture by his drinking companions during an assault that went on for hours.Akoa, 49, had 22 rib fractures from the savage attack, cuts and bruises all over his head and torso, and a lacerated liver when his accused killers left him on his living room floor in Apartment 18 at 457 Cumberland Ave. on the morning of Aug. 10.
The affidavit had been sealed at a prosecutor’s request for one week after three accused killers appeared in court, each on a charge of murder by depraved indifference. The three – Abil Teshome, 23, Osman Sheikh, 31, and Mohamud Mohamed, 36 – are eachbeing held without bail at the Cumberland County Jail.
A neighbor said he believes the Muslim men got into an argument, “objecting to the victim’s religion”. This is corroborated by the heartbreaking thing police found next to Akoa’s head: the victim’s own King James Bible, drenched in his blood.Police would not respond to questions about whether the victim was beaten with his own Holy Book.
In fact, not only are the the local police are refusing to say that this is a hate crime perpetrated by Muslims who hate Christians, but the Maine media as well is refusing to even mention the national origin or religion of the murderers.
One detective, cornered by a reporter, acted as though he had a gag order on him:
He's in a much better place.
ReplyDeleteBut isn't that what every pastor or Christian "leader" going to say? That he's in a much better place to somehow let themselves off the hook for not speaking up against what happened to this man?
Obviously, another example of everyone here rushing to protect Islam and Muslims.
Hitler only took Poland without a shot fired. Muslims have taken over the whole West.
The Somalis, who by and large have been settled in Lewiston (another rusting mill town with few jobs, and fewer opportunities), have been a source of controversy slowly growing in a state where NOBODY give shit who you are and what you do ....UNLESS.
ReplyDeleteThe number of 1960's retired hippies (like me) are ASTOUNDING ..but yet this has been a problem which REFUSES to shrink as the effects ripple into schools, health care, state aid impacts, and inability to affect federal actions which continue to bring in more people than a POOR community can economically absorb.
Lewiston is about 2 hours southwest from where I live.
THIS IS HOW THIS WAS COVERED IN THE BANGOR DAILY NEWS .. which (SHOCKAH) is too the left
"Freddie died suddenly ..."
ReplyDeleteThat's all they have to say.
That's astounding.
