"A 19-year-old Texas man has been federally charged with a hate crime in the beating and abduction of a gay man he lured to his home via social media. According to the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram, Brice Johnson of Springtown severely beat the victim, then locked him into the trunk of his own car.
The victim — identified by police only as "A.K." — was hospitalized for 10 days following the attack for blunt force trauma injuries, including skull and facial fractures.
The attack took place in September. The federal criminal complaint against Johnson said that he told police that he had intended to prank the other man because of his sexual orientation, but that it turned out to be a "joke that went too far and wrong.""* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.
