Two teenage boys have been charged in the fatal shooting of a retired University of North Dakota provost during an attempted robbery Friday morning in South Carolina. Retired UND provost Tom DiLorenzo, 63, was out walking with his wife, newly-appointed College of Charleston provost Suzanne Austin, when the fatal shooting occurred at about 6.15am in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. During the incident, two men approached the couple at an intersection near an antiques store and demanded money from them at gunpoint. DiLorenzo was then shot during the attempted robbery. He was taken to the hospital where he died just before 7am,

Names of the 2 men in custody were not released "because of their age", so we'll never know.

You have to be a modern-day Code Talker to speak the truth. "Police Chief Luther Reynolds said agents from the state law enforcement division and Charleston County deputies are assisting with the investigation. Those agencies also are helping with patrols on lower King Street. 'There’s certain people in a community, that’s a very small number of people who are disproportionately responsible for the violence in our community,' Reynolds said. These people belong in jail.'"

No photos of the "teenage boys."
Yup - - we'll have to visualize them on our own.

People insist on imagining that things are OK and that they don't actually need to be armed and be on alert when walking in public these days. Sorry, those days have passed in much of the country, and you must be able to protect yourself.
You have exactly as much security as you brought with you.

IF he had been black and the teenagers had been white, it would be all over the news. I am assuming the murderers are black since their race is not mentioned. I am so sorry for this senseless murder.

I dont see the code words, 'teens' or 'youths' and its racist to call a black a 'boy' so it must have been white kids??? except white people dont murder professors at 6:15 in the morning for no reason

Feral, amoral animals. I have had a carry permit for years, keep a loaded .38 in my car, but rarely carried when I was out in public. That's changed now. The left and BLM have given the green light for robbery and murder and the street animals have become even more emboldened. Be armed and be aware.

Condolences to his family. No family should have to go through a tragedy like his murder.
There's a big difference between urban Grand Forks, ND and urban Charleston, SC, starting with the racial mix. It is reasonably safe to walk after dark in one and treacherous in the other. Always know your environment before venturing out, even in the daytime. When in doubt, pack a gun.

When I last visited Charleston I was impressed with the beauty of the city and all the signs of Faith expressed there. Having seen the decline of North Carolina, probably because of the influx of Outsiders, I worry that South Carolina may succomb to the same influences. May the Lord protect South Carolina and Charleston for the sake of his people who dwell there.

Yet another reason to defund the police. Yet another reason to disarm citizens. And still another reason to vote for the Democrats who want to impose these delusional policies on us while excusing the sociopaths who kill without remorse because of slavery and white privilege or some other bizarre excuse.

ancient history, I suppose, but in the summer of 1977, I spoke at a conference in Charleston, spent 5 days there.
During my stay, I walked all over town, spending extra time in the antique shops located in a restored district. and I never felt unsafe.

While their names have not been released yet, photos leaked onto the internet suggest the two "boys" were indeed black. Regardless, they should be tried as adults and executed at the earliest. That poor fellow DiLorenzo. Sorrow for his wife who witnessed her husband's murder.
Capital punishment in South Carolina is administered by lethal injection although the inmate can request electrocution if he/she/it prefers. Two boys, which do you prefer?

The attached link to a story published before the perps were arrested. Yes, “youths,” “teens” is code.

I'm going out on a limb here but I bet $5 to your favorite charity that the widow will ask for leniency for these two young men. 'They should be given a chance to turn their lives around and become productive citizens./ /s

Lower King Street is the city’s prime shopping district. Upper King Street, north of Hwy 17, is the area where no one with a sense of self worth walks around even in the middle of the day. These “teens” were looking for tourists with money. And found them.

I don't care if they're 10 years old - do the "adult crime" and do the "adult punishment."
Capture, convict, execute, and society will be the better for it.

It looks like white lives are not mattering much to black folks lately.
I have been seeing a lot of white people getting the hell beat out of them by those nice folks whose lives matter more than everyone else’s apparently.
You should probably be carrying from now on in urban areas if you value your life.

And isn't it funny there are no lefty cat calls for gun control. All the more reason to believe the killing was black on white.

I want to give one hundred "likes" to #17. The moment the first "child" who shoplifted was given a pat on the wrist from the judge, criminals had all the excuses they needed. I want to return to a time of law and order. The police have always been hamstrung by lefty lawyers and loopy judges.

You guessed it. Charleston has a very weak, liberal mayor who stood by while upper King St was set on fire and looted. He endorsed the removal of the John C. Calhoun ( foremen VPOTUS, Sec of State and noble South Carolinian) Statue in Marion Square.

2nd post apologies, but...the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the execution of a person who committed the crime prior to age 18, is unconstitutional. that caused many courts to change death penalty sentences to such individuals, to life without parole.
the U.S. Supreme Court then ruled that an automatic sentence of life without parole, to an individual who committed the crime prior to age 18, is unconstitutional.
and in NYS, Goofy Andrew Cuomo, is trying to extend that youth protection, to somewhere around age 20-21.
Ouer incompetent governor, Tom wolf, killer of the elderly, will probably follow suit.

I only visited Charleston once, walked along a wharf area which is now tourist shops, had lunch in a nice restaurant. And when walking, we ran across, farther up the hill, away from the water, a tiny little enclosure with a couple of cannons. IIRC, they had been held for Washington, and had to be hidden by burying them at one point.
It seemed like a nice place....but I was armed, and so was one other adult male in our group.

The area around the college isn’t the best, and it gets worse as you go north, but I’ve been in the area many times and find this shocking.

We hear repeatedly from the media how black males are so afraid of the police. I am guessing these killers didn't have a daddy to give them "the Talk."

From the article linked in the reply up the thread:
Police said the car was involved and was occupied by three black males possibly in their mid to late-teens.

College and university provosts are usually far left wingers. Wouldn’t it be ironic if these two provosts (one retired) were big supporters of BLM and one of them was killed by the very thugs they were kneeling before two weeks ago?

So we have three 'teens" out at 6 AM in a fairly new car with a gun. Notice parents are never mentioned in these homicide stories? Anybody question where their kids were at 6 AM? Sick of one group of perpetual victims telling us how they are afraid of the police. Not afraid of those guns? If they stole the gun, that's another crime.
If you are old enough to do the crime, you are old enough to do the time.
