Mainstream news networks CNN, MSNBC, ABC and CBS have completely ignored the story of Cannon Hinnant, a 5-year-old boy who was shot in the head by an African-American male in North Carolina, with search queries on all of their websites returning no results.
Hinnant was brutally gunned down by 25-year-old felon Darius Nathaniel Sessoms while riding his playing outside his house in Wilson, North Carolina for the ‘crime’ of riding his bike on Sessoms’s property.
The shocking murder was witnessed by a neighbor and Hinnant’s two young sisters, aged 8 and 7.
“I saw him just run right up to him and [he] put the gun right up to his head and shot him,” neighbor Doris Labrant told WRAL.
A motive for the killing has not been established, although it was reported that, “Sessoms lives next door to Cannon’s father, and a neighbor said that the two men had dinner together Saturday night and that Sessoms was at his neighbor’s home earlier Sunday.”
Sessoms was caught by members of the U.S. Marshals Service Carolinas Regional Fugitive Task Force, Goldsboro police and the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office and faces a charge of first-degree murder.
His previous rap sheet includes felony larceny of firearms, misdemeanor maintaining a place for a controlled substance and felony marijuana possession. Sessoms also has two pending counts of felony maintaining a vehicle, dwelling or place for a controlled substance
Although the story has been covered by local news networks and nationally by Fox News, it appears nowhere on the websites of the other big four national media networks.

“Darius Sessoms—a black man, went up to Cannon Hinnant, a 5 year old white boy and murdered him in cold blood in front of his 2 young sisters,” tweeted Charlie Kirk.
“If the races were reversed it would be national news. The activist media is ignoring this because it doesn’t fit their narrative Sick.”

While America has been transfixed by over two months of violent protests and riots over the death of George Floyd, a convicted criminal who died at the hands of police while high on Fentanyl, press coverage and outrage over the death of Hinnant has been minimal in comparison.
The only lives that matter to the left (which naturally includes the liberal media) are those that can be politically exploited. A career criminal that dies of a drug overdose in police custody is worth more in exploitation value for the liberal agenda than an innocent white 5 year old ruthlessly murdered by a black man.
It can’t be denied.
NC still has the death penalty, a good thing.
Gunned down by 25-year-old felon Darius Nathaniel Sessoms, are felons allowed guns?
Its insane he was still out of the pokey at all.
I thought we have been lectured that it is not possible for blacks to be racist. It is more than obvious this waste of human skin hated white people.
@July 4th American: Well, in the liberal mind, white people got it coming… even 5 year olds. So, no need for media coverage.
