Student Acquitted In The Shooting Death Of Gay Teen That Made Unwanted Sexual Advances Towards Him And Other Boys

15-year-old, make-up wearing, openly gay high school student, Larry King, made a habit of boldly flirting with and making suggestive sexual statements to fellow male classmates, who complained of his behavior. One day, one of them snapped and shot him in the back of the head twice in the computer lab at E.O. Green Junior High School.

At age 14, Brandon McInerney, a depressed teen dabbling in white supremacy, had a breakdown and shot King, due to the overtly sexual statements. A mistrial was declared in a criminal case brought against McInerney for murder.

McInerney’s lawyer contended, E.O. Green Junior High School knew King was upsetting boys by sexually taunting and propositioning them in school and did nothing to stop it, as such conduct can be deemed sexual harassment (whether it is from a male or female, gay or straight).

Two lives have destroyed over an incident that could have been prevented had both teens taken the time to act rationally. While McInerney’s conduct is completely wrong, as stated previously on the site, gays need to be careful aggressively flirting with and taunting straight people, as it could turn violent and very fast. This is not to condone violence, as the Judiciary Report does not, but one has to be careful in life.
