This is a dishonest framing of the situation.

They used the money for relocation as well as legal fees, as they'd always said they would.

You're framing it like they bought a mansion and a urus.

They weren’t at sentencing which also reflects poorly

Has anyone said “where’s ja?!” Yet ?

Video confirms the rain wasn't bad enough to need to be under a tent and that he wasn't jumped by 4-5 dudes and he could have easily left if he wanted to

One push to stab someone is crazy

Them releasing that video when they did is racist as hell lol they know what they doing with that

Waiting til June 19th is wild

Also unless I need glasses or something I can barely see s*** in that video ngl

If he was white he'd be free though.

RIP

Stabbing over a push is nuts

That said wtf was Metcalf thinking putting hands on him after he had his hands in his book bag saying “touch me and see what happens”

He coulda been a school shooter for all he knew

This whole thing hella tragic and should have been avoided

Anyone defending this ed!

People mostly chillin outside and not under a tent = A lie that he needed shelter under the tent because the weather was so brutal

Nobody moving under the tent until the push and stab that took 1 second = A lie that there was a huge 5+ person fight that broke out that lasted multiple minutes

Him running away right after = A lie that he couldn’t get away and was fighting for his life

It’s the same mentality people have when they have a short temper and commit road rage in traffic

A tragedy where nobody wins

Also I think Metcalf thought worst case scenario he swings back at him and they get into a wrestling match he never expected to be stabbed over a petty disagreement

….this still doesn’t justify karmelo getting 35 years dumbfuck

When did I say I agree with the sentencing? I’m just saying the video confirms the defense lied about 3 key things

the whole whataboutism yall cacs do to justify a 17 year old boy getting 35 years while we’ve seen mfs do worse and get less is just crazy man

okay and? defenses do little white lies all the time, and even then austin was a much bigger dude than karmelo who was prone to violence even against his own father so who knows what he was capable of

You not being able to comprehend the fact that we all agree he’s guilty but all disagree on the sentencing is crazy

i honestly don’t even think he should be getting jail time

You’re entitled to your opinion and I respect it

You calling me a “dumbfuck” when I literally agree with you is the insane part

That’s fair I guess. If he was white he would be free though

Just pointing out that the defense was weak because they exaggerated key details

Also, and this is not me trying to be an a******, ignorant, or an apologist, but it this confirmed, not doctored footage? I have to ask cause of the timing of the footage release and general white distrust lol…

ive been railroaded and jailed in the same exact county that karmelo is at right now, so this hits a little close to home, but i apologize if i offended you man

No worries totally understand bro

And I know all about the gross levels of injustice that exist in this country too
