Three arrested in connection with 'very violent' SW Portland death
PORTLAND, Ore. – Three men were arrested Tuesday in connection to the death of a Southwest Portland man, according to Portland police.
Police called the death of 25-year-old Charles Anthony Weber “very violent.” He was found dead inside his home at 2205 Southwest Dolph Court shortly after 1 a.m. Saturday, March 9.
The Oregon Medical Examiner concluded that Weber died of "blunt force trauma to the head."
On Tuesday March 12, police arrested 21-year-old Hussein Ali Haidar at an apartment on Southwest Luradel Street shortly after 5 p.m. At 9 p.m., 18-year-old Omar Ibrahim was arrested at the same location.
The apartment is a little over a mile away from were Weber was found.
Haidar faces charges of aggravated murder, burglary, unlawful use of a weapon and two counts of robbery.
Ibrahim faces a murder and robbery charge.
At 3 p.m. the same day, police arrested 20-year-old Mahmoud Moustafa on the Sylvania Campus of Portland Community College in Southwest Portland.
He’s accused of aggravated murder, burglary, unlawful use of a weapon and robbery.
All three men are lodged at the Multnomah County Jail.
The investigation is ongoing and it is expected police will release more information Thursday.
hey guys you are just talking as an assholes...no one knew about these three "white Muslims men"..it was just about drugs and no one knows the true story it's not a hate crime...there is more of this story people did not know yet about it...if Weber was a father...so the three men also belongs to a family...
Was this a hate crime too? Â Perhaps their victim was gay which would be pretty awful to a Muslim who already had some reason to hate this man...? Â I don't think all Muslims are violent or disposed to be violent but there is more to this story.
Why would some guy going to PCC get involve with a robbery &Â murder?

@August100Â Crap, you might be right and the FBOne will take them away because they are "SPECIAL" in your dreams...
Actually..."redneck" came about in the mid-1800's to the1930's dustbowl era when the necks of farmers trying to till dead soil would get red and burned in the sun. Yes...they were low on the socio-economic level, but it's only been in the last few decades that it's become a derogatory remark...can anyone say "HoneyBooBoo"? Anyway...I have to agree...since when are Muslims considered "peaceful"? All they seem to tout is revenge and martyrdom. Sounds "peaceful" to me :(
@fracas "since when are Muslims considered "peaceful"? All they seem to tout is revenge and martyrdom."
Ya, cause absolutly no other religious faction is violent and beleives in revenge.....sheeesh !
@sargerator @fracas Yeah how could anyone think that Muslims hate anyone who is not a Muslim. Next you'll probably try to tell us they don't believe in equality for women or some crap like that. Â
@Richard Goezinyah A lot of so-called "Christian" religions don't believe in equality for women, either.Â
Most religions have something about them that can be turned into a negative, if one is willing to look hard enough or distort the truth in the right way.
Actually, I think "redneck" was glamorized and turned mainstream courtesy of Jeff Foxworthy, though any amount of common sense would allow one to realize that a redneck would probably be someone doing manual labor and getting sun burnt in the sun, similar to the "farmer brown tan"
I have more respect for rednecks than I do for liberals. Â At least they believe in what this country is all about and are willing to defend it. Â Not so with most liberals I know. Â They will sell out to the highest bidder and the bid doesn't have to be very high. Â Anyway, I'm sure there is a lot more to the story and the victim probably wasn't as innocent as some may think.Â
@Shadow Â
Liberalism (from the Latin liberalis) is a political philosophy or worldview founded on ideas of liberty and equality. Liberals espouse a wide array of views depending on their understanding of these principles, but generally they support ideas such as free and fair elections, civil rights, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, free trade, and private property.
So if that's what a Liberal espouses, why do you lack respect for them? After all, the Founding Father of this nation were Liberals, hence our Constitution.
Are you saying you don't believe in those principles, or that they're not worthy of respect?
@Shadow Ya ! cause those liberals like the village idiot that lied us into the iraq war sold us out...yep those liberals.....I've heard ignorance is bliss !
@Shadow What the heck are you referring to with regards to liberals and rednecks? I don't see any one of these people wearing anything to identify them as either way
@Shadow You make the claim that 'liberals' don't believe in what our country is all about and are not willing to defend it.  I know I'm beating a dead horse with this, but do you have a single fact to back that up?  I think you're blowing smoke out of the lower rear orifice again.
Three "peaceful" muslims?
@Rob C 503Â Like three peaceful settlers
When it comes to drug, there is no peace.

@Rob C 503Â and one ignorant redneck.Â
@B C.........did you see the question mark?? Apparently not. There may be a lot of things you don't see, hence your name calling which only belittles you.
@Rob C 503Â You do realize we're not in grade school anymore right ?
@B C @Rob C 503 So he is ignorant because of sarcasm? Also, redneck was a term used to describe people of manual labor 'onceuponatime', why use a discriminatory word to call out alleged discrimination? I could be wrong and all, but I think that is called hypocrisy. Â
@Kraut @B C @Rob C 503 Kraut, despite your vain attempts to obfuscate the common usage of the word redneck by discussing its historical context, all I see is a sad little man who decides he needs to protect the ramblings of a racist. Which makes you even more pathetic. Â
Curious???.......wonder why this isn't classified a "Hate Crime"? HMMMMM..........
@yabadabadone The hate is assuming that these poor specimen were:
A: practicing muslims
B: attacking the victim because of his or their religious beliefs
please dont procreate. We do not need any more derp in the region.
 Because it was a drug crime, they knew each others.

Hate crime happens when three whites kill one... (you fill the dots, excluding white).Â
@yabadabadone Hmmmm -- because so far there'd be no reason for it to be classified as a "hate crime"?  That would be my guess.
@Sundowner @yabadabadone Three Arab-descendants (possibly Muslim as well) attacking a young expressive white American in a progressive and hip city. Sure, I bet that last part was just a coincidence. They didn't pick him out, it could have just as easily been a visiting Mexican immigrant from California or a African-American, right? Give me a break. Hate Crime is just another off-shoot of white guilt.Â
@pdxd kraut doesn't care, just wants to deflect about his own inadequacies !
@Kraut for a hate crime to occur, the victim must be specifically targeted solely for the purpose of race, religion, sexual orientation, etc. If it's a drug business deal gone bad, that's not a hate crime, it's called bad business.
@Kraut Well, that's a perfectly asinine comment/attack.  Guess you're afraid to tell me what your definition "white guilt" is.  I accept your surrender.
@Sundowner @Kraut You appear to have the Internet, and the use of your hands. I believe you are more than capable of figuring it out yourself and without much hand-holding. I know that it is hard for Liberal to do something on their own, but you can do it. I believe in you.Â
@Kraut I'm not sure what "white guilt" is.  I'm white (aka I suffer Portland Pallor even though I don't live in Portland) and I don't feel guilty about much of anything.  Care to elaborate?
Sickening! People are such cowards anymore! RIP to the man who was violently murdered.
@cruz2010Â what, murder is a new thing?
@Mike.... That doesn't mean it isn't sickening....
Another news source,(lets call it "six") states that the victim and the accused did know each other, and that drugs may have played a role
Link please.
I found the link, thanks.

I have read this story several times. Angered and saddened my heart goes out to the victims. How could something like this happen with no gun involved. Impalement would be a nice punishment.
@Richard Goezinyah Funny name you got there Richard.
@randola @Richard Goezinyah Call me Dick.
@Old29 @Richard Goezinyah @randola No relation.
@Richard Goezinyah @randola Richard Cranium.
Very sad that this happened, I'm not aware of any of the details or particulars, but there's 1 life gone, and 3 lives that will likely be lived out in prison without realizing the potential they could have accomplished.
Is anyone wondering how the poster, within a couple of hours of this happening, posted on here knowing how many people were involved and knew the vitim's name??? He posted this just as investigators were asking people for information. I think the poster's names was "Statusshock" or something equally stupid as that. Does anyone remember that???
@fracas I just went back to look at the original story, and you are correct, someone called "statusshock" did post something, but whatever it was has been deleted.
If these were white guys and Weber were gay, this would instantly be labeled a "hate crime". Based on the information we now have, can we go ahead and assume that this is an act of terrorism?
If Bush were still President, he would be invading another middle Eastern country right now hunting down Aladdin to seek revenge.
@pdxd ....you must dream about George. It's been over four years and you're still obsessed.
@brautigan @Rob C 503 @pdxdÂ
Now that deserved a DOUBLE SCHWING !
@Rob C 503@pdxd I also remember the last time I hit my thumb with a hammer. It kinda helps me not hit my thumb with a hammer.
@pdxd Just found out yesterday that Laura's a bit of a chain-smoker.  Cracked me up (not sure why -- she'd have to suffer at least one addiction to be married to him, IMO).
@Rob C 503, Yes, I dream of coming up behind George, and getting it on Texas Cow Boy style while using Laura's pearls as a harness for him. Get your jolly now?
@Sundowner Eww....
@Rob C 503 @pdxd I dream about George a lot.  What a hottie!
@acepixure "If these were white guys" -- they are.  "If....Weber were gay" -- he's a father. Â
MIDDLE EASTERN DECENT IS NOT "CAUCASIAN"
@SKVmutant So the Jesus was........double D'OH !!
@SKVmutant Then what "race" is it?  There's a huge difference between race and nationality.
@Sundowner These are not "white guys" they are Arab. BIG difference!
@nerdbyrd Being "Arab" means a person's heritage is in the Middle East.  It is not a race of people.  If that were the case, that everyone's race was determined by where they were born......yeah, that's BS.
@Sundowner @acepixure Not saying the victim was gay, but being a father means nothing. My husbands dad is gay, he fathered 4 kids.
@pdx10Â True, but this story isn't about a "hate crime", I'd bet money on it (what would be the "hate" part?). Â This has all the makings of a drug deal gone bad.
Your powers of logic are amazing.
