They are just children!

Can we add Lateef to the thread title?

So we are only looking for Collin because Ahmed has a warrant? WTH?

I just did a quick search and it's like nobody cares what happened to Ahmed, even though he was brutally beaten as well. That's disturbing.

I was wondering that, too. Just because his mom reported Collin missing and Ahmet has a felony warrant? WTF? If such a video was circulated, this should be big news. It’s like they don’t care.

Drobik said police believe the pair may have been involved in a drug deal “that may have gone bad” near Juan Tabo and Comanche NE.

APD: Two young men missing, in danger

Very disturbing. I hope they are okay and just fear coming forward. I also hope if they are involved in drugs they get the help they need. So sad.

Awful. Just kids being kids and trying to learn how to grow up.
(How can you see in a video someone has broken bones??)
At least APD must know the id of one of the involved, the one who filmed it.
I looked around on FB but couldn't find much, except they'd possibly been gone a few days before the report was made.
Ahmed should be added to thread title as well. It's in MSM he's missing too!

If it is an open fracture of the bone (in layman's term more commonly referred to as a "compound fracture") the broken bone will pierce the skin and you can see it sticking out of the skin. It's usually from a high energy impact, more common in automobile accidents or gunshots, but a severe beating could cause it in the more easily broken bones such as the ulna and the radius.

Gosh I hope mom never got to see the video.
That is not just being beaten, that's being tortured.

If they have untreated open fractures they better hurry to get medical help. Infection is a given in such a scenario.

They are still missing and they don’t know where they are or if they are still alive.

Missing Albuquerque teenagers last seen being beaten on video

Police say the two teens were last seen in a neighborhood near Hoover Middle School.
"This person that he was meeting was a dangerous person," said Kimbrel.

"I just want to know that he didn't suffer, and if he is out here, that it was quick," said Kimbrel.

I just hope whoever is guilty is found and put away for life. They have no right to live among the rest of us.
