19-year old teenager, Larnell Malik Bruce, had his head smashed in a store window and was later run over by a white supremacist and his girlfriend with their Jeep Wrangler, eventually leading to his death few days later.

The altercation occurred just before midnight on the 10th of August outside a 7-Eleven in Gresham, Oregon.

The 38-year old white supremacist, Russell Courtier, and his girlfriend, 35-year old Colleen Hunt, approached Bruce and intentionally started an altercation which soon turned violent with Courtier smashing Bruce’s head into a store window, prompting the store-keepers to dial 911.

Bruce brandished a knife and finally managed to flee the scene but was hunted down by Courtier and Hunt in his SUV. They eventually ran him over and fled the scene but were caught by police soon after to whom they admitted to intentionally hitting Bruce.

Courtier, a long-time member of the white-supremacist gang European Kindred (EK) has had his fair share of legal troubles time and again. Right from domestic violence against his fiancée, who’s head he smashed in a windshield, to attacking a woman with a knife in 2013, Courtier is known to be a professional when it comes to committing serious felonies.

Courtier’s first brush with the EK occurred in 2001 while serving several years at the Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution for attacking a man and the bond grew stronger in 2003 when he was caught drawing the gang’s logo in his cell. This notorious 38-year old has garnered almost 40 “major” prison violations between 2001 and 2013 for an array of crimes, right from assaults to white supremacist gang associations. A grand jury indicted them both for murder on August 18. Unfortunately, the authorities are yet to release a motive behind the murder.

It is appalling to see a man with such an astonishingly terrifying track-record who is in the second year of his parole walking freely. Especially someone who has had seven felony and four misdemeanor convictions according to his prison records. But then again, we live in a day and age when a black caretaker is shot by cops while taking care of an autistic person. If this isn’t the epitome of white privilege, then what is?
