Mourners gather, celebrate life of road-rage victim Bianca Roberson

The service at St. Paul’s Baptist Church came a week and a half after Roberson and another driver engaged in what police called a high-speed “cat-and-mouse game” as they tried to merge into a single highway lane. It ended with the young woman shot in the head June 28.

The West Chester church was packed with more than 300 people, many of them schoolmates of the victim. Wreaths of lavender and white flowers dotted the place of worship, as did photographs of a smiling Roberson.

Speakers talked about her contagious smile, how excited she was to start college at Florida’s Jacksonville University in the fall and her goal of becoming a forensic agent in the FBI.

that perpetrated this heinous hate filled racist murder yet, if they are even pursuing the case forcefully. I know that if the case had been the opposite, racially speaking, that murderer would be dead or waiting for the death sentence to be pronounced after a fifteen minute trial. Period.

in not expecting this POS to be in custody given the rise of the racist's culture under this trump prezidency and given the green light....given the current political/racial climate enabled by the head racist in the WH....I guess and believe please that I don't feel bad in the least in assuming this murderous POS was still at large. Don't watch or read much MSM, just going by my experiences in this culture with over 55 years of knowing I was a black person in a racist society, still am.

Did they stop at burger king and feed him...

I posted earlier on this OP this murder breaks my heart I have a daughter close in age so I can not read too much about it other than the link I posted . Besides being saddened I am also pissed off that this is yet another thing I had to sit down and show my kids what happened and had to point out to my kids to be careful with changing lanes . Sick of talks
No apologies needed from you because if he didn't turn himself in who knows if he would be in custody in PA? The fact he lawyered up so fast means he may bargain his way out
