Family: Son Killed By Neighbor Who Called Him "Dirty Arab."
BURNETT: Tonight, a 35-year-old man arrested and charged hours ago with first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of a New York imam and his assistant. Now, we are learning about another murder, this one also a possible hate crime in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This man accused of shooting and killing his neighbor, a 37-year-old Lebanese-American man. He and his family allegedly harassed for years, taunted with slurs. Brynn Gingras is OUTFRONT in Tulsa.</s>BRYNN GINGRAS, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Dirty Arabs and dirty Lebanese are just some of the insults Vernon Majors allegedly called his neighbors. His anger towards the Jabara family turned deadly on Friday when police say he shot and killed Khalid Jabara. Majors is no stranger to the family. For years, the Jabaras who are Christians of Lebanese descent said that Majors would terrorize them call them names. In 2013, the family filed a protective order which prevented Majors from having contact with them. But records show, Majors violated that order. In September of last year, Majors allegedly hit Khaled Jabara's mother Haifa with his car, putting her in the hospital for weeks. Majors was arrested and charged with felony assault, two judges denied his request to be released on bond. But three months ago, a third judge, against the district attorney's wishes, allowed the 61-year-old to post bail, releasing him until his trial in 2017. Neighbors who did not want to be identified say they are not surprised by the allegations against Majors, saying he had a history.</s>UNIDENTIFED NEIGHBOR: He'd walk on to our property and started screaming to my family and told us Mexicans we are here and stuff like that.</s>GINGRAS: On the night he was killed, Khaled called police to report Majors had a gun after getting a tip from someone Majors lived with. According to the Tulsa police department, officers responded, but could not go inside Majors' home so they left. Later, police say Majors walked up to the front steps of his neighbor's home and shot and killed Khaled Jabara. His mother says she was on the phone with her son when it happened telling CNN, "They should have looked at his history to see this is a dangerous guy. They could have spared my son's life. My son is gone. My son is gone."</s>GINGRAS: After the shooting, police found Majors hiding behind a tree here at this library. He's now charged with first-degree murder and this time he's being held without bail. The D.A. did release a statement saying this family did everything they were supposed to do and the system failed them. And, Erin, I did just talk to the Jabara family before we came on the air and they were surprised by that and right now they are focusing on arranging funeral arrangements for Khaled.</s>BURNETT: All right. Brynn, thank you. Well, next, we're awaiting Donald Trump. He's going to take the stage live in Wisconsin, a crucial rally tonight. He's going to be appearing with the governor who you just saw here on our show. Plus, Jeanne Moos on the latest awkward Joe Biden hug.
