Eight juveniles are under arrest and face murder charges in the beating death of 17-year-old Jonathan Lewis.
Breitbart News reported that Lewis was beaten by a mob of 15 just blocks away from his high school–Rancho High School–after standing up for a smaller friend whom the mob had put into a trash can.
The beating occurred on November 1, 2023, and Lewis died on November 7, 2023.
Video of the incident is disturbing:
