https://nypost.com/2023/11/12/news/las-vegas-teen-beaten-to-death-by-mob-of-15-attackers-outside-of-high-school/

A Las Vegas teen has died after he was beaten by a group of bullies for coming to the defense of a smaller friend who was thrown into a trash can, the students grieving dad said. Jonathan Lewis, a 17-year-old student at Rancho High School, died last Tuesday less than two weeks after he was savagely beaten by a mob of 15 kids, his father, also named Jonathan Lewis, confirmed to 8 News Now on Thursday. One of his smaller friends had something stolen by this group of 15, and they threw the small boy in the trash can, and our son confronted them and he was attacked, according to a GoFundMe page set up by his family. Alarming footage from the Nov. 1 attack only blocks away from Lewiss high school shows the teen confronting one of the alleged bullies before throwing a punch. Seconds later, the mob of violent kids swarmed Lewis and began hitting and kicking the outnumbered teen repeatedly in the head as he lay defenseless on the ground.

A second, extended video of the heartless beatdown shows one of Lewis friends rushing to help as the violent bullies swarm around him. The unidentified friend is seen frantically trying to rip away the 15 attackers before receiving a harsh blow to the back of the skull forcing him to retreat from the madness for his own safety. Some of the bullies attacking Lewis are then seen chasing his friend and punching him in the head until he falls to the ground. Before the video cuts out, up to five of the bullies are seen surrounding Lewis friend as he tries to get back up, delivering a flurry of severe kicks and punches. Lewis girlfriend reportedly gave a statement confirming her boyfriend was standing up for his smaller friend, the family shared. Following the attack, police officers found Jonathan bleeding from the head. Paramedics quickly rushed to his aid, with those still staying with the then-injured teen, saying they performed chest compressions on Lewis before transporting him to the hospital. The teen was put on life support at University Medical Center, where he died last Tuesday. The senior Lewis shared that he kept his son on life support for several days, holding out hope that he would wake up. I just love my children with all my heart, and its just unimaginable that we could ever come to this point, Lewiss father told 8 News Now.

Saving his friend and letting people know he not gonna be a doormat. He will be remembered as more of a man then most.

True, he's definitely a martyr in a way. It was a commendable sacrifice on his part, but it was his life he sacrificed. Hopefully these murderers will be brought to justice making society as a whole better off.

Surprised no mention of arrest have been made. Theyre only need to find one of the kids in the video to start a snowball effect for them to rat each other out. Because thats what cowards who gang up on the weak are. Weak cowards themselves who follow the mob.

Once caught then hopefully they get sent away for life. Society has no need for such trash.

I grew up and went to school in Vegas. Some of those kids were straight up psychotic and the schools would hardly do anything about them. We had death threats and lock downs in our school for violence.

What does this achieve?

For society, but also for you personally? You know none of the people involved but wish to present to everyone just how much you would like to see them suffer for some reason.

It's funny how the left will say the right has no empathy, yet in any heinous criminal situation like this, are completely unable to comprehend putting yourself in the shoes of the victim's family and wanting the most severe punishment possible for the fucking monsters that did it.

Calls for 'justice' wants 'the most severe punishment possible for the fucking monters' invokes 'empathy'.

I guess it makes sense to you.

Why must we try to rehabilitate everyone and give them a villain redemption arc? The planet is already overpopulated with good, innocent, hardworking people. People who got addicted to drugs or committed a crime out of desperation or a horrible accident absolutely deserve a 2nd chance, but we dont need to spend time, money and resources saving straight up murderers. The death penalty is addition by subtraction in those cases.

Oh and before the ITS ACTUALLY MORE EXPENSIVE TO KILL SOMEONE, I agree, we do need death penalty cost reform.
