Paul Cortapasso was charged with second degree murder in the robbery/ slaying of Alexander James. On March 13, of last year James was attacked by Cortapasso while Nico Valente stood by watching. After Cortapasso hit James in the head with a hammer, Valente and Cortapasso took off in the victims car and left James for dead outside his home on Capodanno Boulevard. This article really stood out to me because this is a very eyecatching title! This is something I should have been aware about because i live near here! This story is just one example of why you have to be very careful while dealing with your peers. All kids should definately be more aware of their surroundings and never travel alone! This article is very informative and shows exactly what can happen if you are not careful!

This summary of your article stood out to me; most likely because it has a familiar location. Many people can relate to things they know. I find it uncomforting that people could do such harsh crimes to other humans and even think about getting away with them. The other idea that stood out to me was that this victim was a male teen. Usually, you hear about teen girls being harassed or raped and other things. Everyone in this area should be careful, and travel wisely
ReplyDeleteThis article is very interesting and it stood out to me because I heard about this story in the newspaper. Also this story is very relateable because I live right by here and people wouldn't think that crimes like this would take place over here.
