That part is objective journalism.Purplehood wrote:Police say 28-year-old Marqus Hill was arrested Wednesday and charged with murder and related offenses in the death of 18-year-old Irving Santana over the weekend. Investigators say Santana was shot 13 times Sunday after Hill saw his car being broken into in the Olney section of North Philadelphia.
His Florida license is irrelevant. The only reason to mention it is if they're writing a hit piece.
Reporting on his revoked PA license is suspicious. If it was revoked because he was convicted of a felony, they would have mentioned that, so I wonder why they're withholding the reason it was revoked. I bet it was revoked because he didn't kowtow to the right people or another bogus reason.
Calling the adult criminal a teenager when he's old enough to vote (if he's a legal citizen) is technically correct but most people don't think legal adult when they see the word teen, so good journalism would avoid the ambiguity.
