El Paso Walmart Shooter Pleads Not Guilty to 90 Criminal Charges
----------------------------------------------------------------

In Texas, the suspected shooter in the El Paso Walmart rampage that
killed 22 people has pleaded not guilty. Patrick Crusius is facing more
than 90 criminal charges, include federal hate crimes, for allegedly
targeting Latinos and Mexicans in a racially motivated massacre. Shortly
before the August 3 shooting, Crusius published a racist online
manifesto echoing President Trump's rhetoric about an "invasion" of
immigrants. Crusius faces the death penalty.
