Alleged El Paso Walmart Shooter Charged with Federal Hate Crimes
----------------------------------------------------------------

In El Paso, Texas, the white man suspected of killing 22 people at an El
Paso Walmart last August has been charged with federal hate crimes. The
alleged killer is accused of targeting Latinos in a racially motivated
massacre. Moments before the August 3 shooting, the shooter published an
online manifesto echoing President Trump's rhetoric about an "invasion"
of immigrants.
