CHARLESTON -- Both suspects in a South Charleston murder will be in court Nov. 30.

Michael Thompson and Jimmy Thompson are expected to appear for their preliminary hearings Monday afternoon. The men are charged in the beating and stabbing death of James Gillispie Nov. 20.

According to a criminal complaint, the teens were drinking with Gillispie when an argument erupted over stolen prescription drugs. A witness said he saw Thompson strike the victim and said Thompson later told him the two teens had killed Gillispie.

Let's fry these punks. They deserved it.

There are plenty of ignorant thugs that breeds in our city. We need to get rid of them immediately.

Otherwise, They will invade and dominate the city.

look at these punks. they look like they deserve to be locked up. what the hell is wrong with the youth of the world? don't people realize that if children are the future then with the condition that the youth are in today the world is worse off than it has ever been. can we really leave the earth to these kids and expect society to maintain as it has for the last 150 years or so. i wish i could come back about 60 years after i die and see the outcome of this generation and how they help the decline of modern society.
