Police have arrested a suspect in the killing of a 16-year-old cheerleader who was found dead by her mother in her bathtub earlier this week in Edna, Texas.

The Edna Police Department located the suspect, identified as Rafael Romero, on Saturday in Schulenburg, Texas.

The Texas Rangers, who investigate major violent crime as part of the state’s Department of Public Safety, arrested Romero for capital murder — which makes the suspect eligible for the death penalty if convicted — and took him to the Jackson County Jail.

    Not according to the community rules:

    Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.___ Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post. ___

      “should”, so no. It is only deleted if it misrepresents. Editing the title here makes sense and is allowed.

        If you allow an edit here, than I can argue my edit is a correction as well even though it’s misleading and biased.

        It’s a slippery slope and there’s a reason it’s a rule in most places that want proper news discussions.

          The rule says it can be edited as long as it doesn’t misrepresent the article. Arguably it should be changed as the original title is misleading clickbait.

            Rules get broken and bent, it won’t be long until this rule changes to no edits to be in line with every other news discussion place.

            You don’t edit article titles, sorry you’re just wrong here. Go bark up somewhere else and stop following me into other posts since I called you out.

              This is not a breaking of the rules as was posted. It just has to represent the story, which it would (with an edit) better than the original.

              I haven’t followed you. What are you talking about? You can edit titles according to what you posted. Why are you so insistent?

              “Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed”

              WON’T being the important word here.

                Not a hard concept to follow, a mod can’t be the one making the decision, that allows bias in. The rule is flawed and it will eventually be changed to meet every other news discussion place.

                This is the fourth post you’ve responded to my comments in. Don’t play dumb.

                  Am I allowed to respond to your posts here? I haven’t followed anyone.

                  The rule is the rule. Why are you still debating this? News articles are biased also, as they were written by humans.

                    Because you’re defending an inherently flawed rule and won’t accept you are wrong, this is no the 4th exchange in as many days.

                    I’m now blocking you, clearly you don’t understand that concept of good faith discussions, which is incredibly ironic given some of your comments about how mean Lemmy can be.

                    If you see an asshole in the morning, you saw an asshole, if you see assholes all day. You’re the asshole.

                    In case that’s not obvious tool you, you’re the latter, not the former. You keep seeing assholes since you are the asshole.
