The four black Chicago-area young people who kidnapped a disabled white man, then beat him, threatened him with a knife and forced him to drink from a toilet were charged with hate crimes in Thursday. They were also charged with kidnapping, aggravated battery and aggravated unlawful restraint.
The incident was broadcast live on Facebook by one of the perpetrators; the assault lasted two days; the victim was then discovered by Chicago police as he walked “in distress” along a street, according to police authorities.
