Remember the victim?

Smith and other local officials, including the Jena police chief and mayor and the county district attorney, issued a statement saying threats had also been made against the student who was beaten. In the statement, they denounced all of the threats.

First the student is viciously attacked, now he is being threatened because some people don't want his attackers brought to justice. Sadly enough his attack and the threats made against him barely get a footnote in the media.
