I’ve been trying to find out more about this because the story doesn’t make any sense:
“he approached the sleeping woman, and then lit her on fire with what was believed to be a lighter. She added the victim’s clothes became fully engulfed in a matter of seconds.”
Clothing shouldn’t just be flammable like that without some kind of accelerant.

Oh come off it. Burning someone alive is why it’ll be a multi-day national story.
How can you even say that given that the last multi-day story was a fare jumper being shot at and the one before that was someone being choked to death? Neither of which, to my knowledge, involved immigrants.
Keep stirring that race pot though.
23 people were murdered by fire in 2023.
And “immigrant” isn’t a race, but if you’re playing ignorant about how this intertwines with current sociopolitical movements (just like the other two national-coverage murders you cite), this isn’t a particularly surprising slip up. And if that wasn’t enough jumping to “stirring the race pot” paints a pretty clear picture.
