But for me, it’s these two deaths that are connected and it’s how the first death helped set in motion the second death. Na’im was 15 when his brother died, and he was at this precarious moment in life. His brother Khiel was killed under this tragic, awful set of circumstances. And he’s doing this sort of thing because the police just killed his brother. He’s facing five years in prison, and he does it, then he gets out and he’s killed within a year.
