Verdict reached in Karmelo murder trial

[Couchpotato]

They had video of Rittenhouse shooting people, and he was acquitted.

Because he was white.

WTF does that have to do with this trial?

 

[martybegan]

Blacks were excluded from this jury.

They might as well have been wearing hoods.

Teachers were excluded for cause because they expressed sympathy for the defendant as a student.

You guys picked the wrong case to stand behind.

 

[candycorn]

This is the court system you wanted…Don’t cry now…

Again, not even remotely true.

Murder should = life in prison with no parole. I've said that from day one.

 

[Woodznutz]

He'll be out with his first parole hearing in 17 years. Not bad for committing murder. Of course, by then he will be a hardened criminal and will likely kill again.

And yet you continue to vote for people who love the revolving door justice system.

Makes your words ring hollow.

Thanks for being honest about your racism.

ITs a violent culture look at all the protestoirs defending murder

 

[Dragonlady]

No. Just lefties that think its OK that Karmelo murdered another student.

Dumbest post by a Cult moron ever. You people don't have the brains God gave a flea.

Aren't you currently sucking the dick of someone who pardoned people who assaulted the cops?

Yes you are.

Makes your lame assed accusations ring hollow. Especially since I haven't voted in Texas in like 20 years.

Watching African Americans murder themselves with a ferocity, that means nothing to you. Every white/black crime though is on the stage. Decades ago, I remember the accusations of hate that whitee did not care about black children. It never ends. This crime was stupid.

Oh, it was because they were "teachers" (actually, that was only one juror, but never mind)

Not because they were black and might understand why a black kid might feel threatened by two bigger white kids pushing him to the ground.

Is the whole purpose of having a jury to bring diverse viewpoints and come to a consensus?

Oh, I agree, this crime was entirely stupid.

So was Rittenhouse going to a riot pretending he was a medic with a gun.
So was Zimmerman pretending he was Batman, stalking a black kid.
So was Reeves shooting a man because he was texting on his phone and threw popcorn at him.

They excluded them selves because they know if they vote guilty they will be hated in their community. Targets for revenge.

Karmelo used the "sucker stab". Metcalf never saw it coming.

They also pretty much knew that Karmelo was guilty and would be found guilty.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Well when you have an all white jury in the south convicting a black man, what did you expect?

I'm surprised they didn't simply lynch him. It would have been more honest.

Dumbass it was not an all white jury. There were two hispanics and three Asians on it. Quit blowing smoke out your ass.

 

[LeftofLeft]

The only awful person is Matt Walsh.

Maybe his parents legitimately believed he was defending himself from two white bullies who were pushing him around.

Do you even know if the prosecutors offered him a plea?

Optics aren’t on the parents’ side. Anyone who is a parent teaches their kids to get away from bullies or to push or punch back - not retaliate with a fatal knife stab. The next part is that if money is raised for your child’s defense, every penny goes to the best legal defense. You don’t correct a million dollar home stack it with three luxury cars while you are unemployed and your son is in need of the best defense.

I feel bad for Karmelo. Not only was he not raised correctly, his parents sold him out in an extreme time of need for him.

OOH THAT ONE HIT YA!!!!

The evidence was clear in this case. It was murder pure and simple. The Defense had nothing.

Wasn't an all white jury idiot. There are more than blacks and whites in America.
