Reflection:
Steven Brandon Mulligan is standing trial in connection with an alleged murder of an 17-year-old boy last summer. Adem Aliu was the name of the teen who as killed early in the morning of April 14 2010 on 103 and 141 street. Residents that lived by said they heard sounds of raising voices followed by the sounds of running and then gunfire.Within 15 hours of the shooting Mulligan was charged with second degree murder, Mulligan is known to the police and has a gang lifestyle. Aliu is an Albanian immigrant and isn't known to the police and does not have a criminal record. Police believe he was out with his friends slashing tires and kicking cars before they came face to face with Mulligan and the murder trial was ordered after a preliminary hearing at Surrey provincial court that concluded on April 19 and now the case will continue in the supreme court of B.C and a date will be set May 19.
I believe that the media doesn't take sides. This article is a very good demonstration of that they explained both sides of the story telling that Mulligan is accused of murder but also explaining that Adem and his friends were out late and up to no good not saying that killing him justifies it, but if you think about it if your out 1 or 3 in the morning hanging out with your friends you not reading the bible you are up to something and this comes back to the parents, don't let your kids out to late. Have a certain timetable when its dinner, chores, so there is discipline and a bedtime so this is one of those things that Adem's parents learned the hard way and lets hope no other parent has to.
