URGENT - ALL HANDS ON DECK

Last night in Oakland a 25-30 year old heavyset white man targeted and slashed the throats of 2 teenage girls - killing 18 y/o #NiaWilson and critically injuring her sister.

We need to find this man IMMEDIATELY.

Full Story: sfgate.com/crime/article/…

#NiaWilson

Her name needs to be the #1 trending topic in the country & a national manhunt needs to be underway for her killer. She was a kid.

The 25-30 y/o white man who murdered her & critically injured her sister walked up to them both & began slashing them w/ a knife.

Here is the father of #NiaWilson begging for justice upon learning that she had been targeted then stabbed to death by a random white man on the train.

An unthinkable act of violence.

ALL HANDS ON DECK.

Murder suspect identified in MacArthur stabbing murder of #NiaWilson.

John Cowell is his name.

Let’s find him. NOW.

After John Cowell stabbed and murdered #NiaWilson and critically injured her sister, he went to a parking deck next door and changed into these clothes.

Stop calling this “random.” This man planned out the murder and targeted two young Black women. He had a plan for this.

Took all day to get Nia’s story to be the #1 trending topic in the nation.

Now we need to find her killer.

Important article from @EastBayTimes on how John Cowell has been an absolutely horrible man his entire adult life.

#NiaWilson - above all else - was a teenage girl. She literally just finished high school weeks ago.

Sadly, I see already gross attempts to demean her character. Shame on any soul-less person doing this.

I reject that. As we all should.

Share this clearer image of the murderer John Cowell. They should’ve released this one instead of the grainy version of the other one.

He’s 5,9” & weighs nearly 200 pounds. This is now the best, clearest image of him after the murder.

When we see horrific police brutality against African Americans, we often say police need more training.

But here, while arresting a violent white murderer, they show us they absolutely know how to be calm, cool, & methodical...when they want to. Hard to teach that.
