Until the facts are nailed down tight, I’m still holding to the notion that the kid was murdered by his own for being a non-straight Muslim male. I’ve been down this road way too many times only to find that the highly publicized version consists of pure helium.
6 Jewish nationalists arrested in Jerusalem revenge killing of Arab teen

Police have arrested six Jewish extremists in the brutal murder of Palestinian teen Muhammad Abu Khdeir, an Israeli security official said Sunday.
Although details of the arrest remain unknown, the official, who spoke under the condition of anonymity due to a gag order, confirmed the killing was likely nationalistically motivated.
The unidentified suspects remain in police custody amid ongoing rioting in east Jerusalem.
Palestinians have claimed that the murder was carried out by Jews in revenge for the kidnap and murder of three Israeli teens last month.
Amid calls for a third intifada, thousands of Palestinians gathered in east Jerusalem on Friday during a violent and highly charged funeral procession for the murdered teen.
An autopsy report released Saturday revealed that the teen was burned alive.
Draped in a Palestinian flag, Abu Khdeir’s 16-year-old body was carried through his neighborhood of Shuafat under a sweltering sun to a local cemetery, as firecrackers, gunshots, and calls for vengeance pierced the air.
