I’ve been trying to find out more about this because the story doesn’t make any sense:
“he approached the sleeping woman, and then lit her on fire with what was believed to be a lighter. She added the victim’s clothes became fully engulfed in a matter of seconds.”
Clothing shouldn’t just be flammable like that without some kind of accelerant.

The suspect being an immigrant is the main reason this will be a multi-day national story. It’s a fucked up way to kill someone, but even with that in mind, there’s no way they’d make a national story out of a homeless woman being murdered in NYC except to serve a broader agenda.
Well, there’s also the burning person on a subway.
Yeah I mean how often does that happen? Like legitimately?
I don’t know. But I’m sure it doesn’t happen so much that it would be ignored by the news.
