Verdict reached in Karmelo murder trial

[Lisa558]

It's just my guess based upon the jury only taking three hours to return a guilty verdict.

Yeah, it was so obvious that murderer had no defense that the prosecutor figured it was a slam-dunk.

(Of course, that’s waaaaaacist!)

 

[Lisa558]

Hell they used a public defender. By Son. We gonna enjoy all this money

I DID see the mother drive off in some fancy car.

You are defending a white murderer who knifed a kid to death in a school bathroom. Why aren't you racist asking why this kid had a knife at school.

Why would we? He was charged, tried and convicted without anyone defending him. You didn't see crowd of Whites outside the courthouse screaming racism because he was charged for his conduct. He killed someone in a fight and paid the price, Anthony killed another boy for, at worst, shoving him AND ADMITTED IT TO THE COPS when they apprehended him.

they did release it,,

Only if you make a request to see it. They need to just release the footage to everyone. Even if they blur out the actual stabbing, it needs to not be kept in the dark

JoeWorld is a simple world, but again you're a simple man.

yet you can't tell me why Allison only deserved 10 years but Karmelo deserved 35 for crimes that were essentially the same.

Let's just focus there. One kid knifes another kid to death. Let's take all the surrounding packaging off of it (because they would just make Allison look worse - Premeditation and a more vicious attack.)

Why does the white kid merit the lighter sentence?

Lisa is living in mortal fear that poor people might have nice things.

 

[JoeB131]

Who cares? Per Texas law this is straight up murder. You cannot create the conditions for violence and then claim self defense. All he had to do was take two steps left and he was good.

Yet Allison created the conditions, and he didn't get convicted of murder in Texas.

I mean, it's very nice for white folks to say, "Well, he should have just taken two steps". We don't live in a world where that would be seen as weakness and invite more abuse.

How about Eric or Hunter could have went and got an adult, how about Eric could have kept his damn hands to himself. I am saying the kid has to kill him, but it amazes how folks like you are always saying what the black person could have done. You said Trayvon should have just gone home, not Zimmerman should have just taken his ass on to Target. In the Caysen Allison case, you didn't say, "Caysen should have not gone into that bathroom" or Chow should have kept his ass on his store. Why is that?

You cannot murder someone for telling you to get out of their tent.

 

[JoeB131]

And I can post case after case of black thugs who got light sentences as well. It doesn't prove a single thing.

You have to take each case individually and weigh the evidence, and present it to a jury.
This case had OVERWHELMING evidence that the defendant had ample opportunity to deescalate the situation by simply leaving.
He was not ganged up on, was not cornered, he had no reason to use deadly force.

Your claims are nothing but hyperbowl.

Not sure what a "Hyperbole" is. (I suspect you meant "hyperbole.")

The problem is, you are desperately trying to find where these two cases are "different", but the only difference was a white kid was involved, so he got a lighter sentence.

White Killer - Hispanic Victim - 10 years
Black Killer - White victim - 35 years.

Tell me what I'm missing here.

JoeBob relishes the thought of that fancy car belonging to everyone

 

[JoeB131]

What makes you believe this was because he is white?

Because the Maker gave me two eyes to see.

 

[JoeB131]

It shows how we live in two different worlds. They know this kid used deadly force when he shouldn't have. They know he murdered another human being, and they simply do not care, because the kid that was murdered was white and the murderer was black.

Or maybe they see so many cases of black kids being killed (Trayvon Martin, Laquan McDonald, Tamir Rice, Michael Brown) with little or no consequences to the white people who do it.

The Four I just listed. - NO Jail, 3 years, no jail, no jail.

Which of our murder supporters here will that convince?

 

[JoeB131]

We've discussed at length since you brought it up and the White kid received TEN years, not five for what amounted to manslaughter which is a pretty average sentence. But you fail to mention that the Latino kid went into the bathroom with a group of his friends to videotape him attacking the white kid AFTER a female friend of both tried to talk him out of the attack. That has a lot of bearing on the sentence. He had a history of videoing attacks on classmates at the school. The Latino kid was no saint.

Um, it's high school. Boys get into fights.

They don't go around knifing each other.

Now, both Allison and Anthony claimed "Self-defense" because they felt threatened. Both cases, the jury rejected it.

But the white kid only gets 10 years. (Will probably be out in five.)

 

[JoeB131]

How is the system racist? Chavin got 30 years because a lowlife drug addict violent ex-con overdosed on fentanyl. But because the lowlife was black, the mob demanded the white cop get sent up for decades. And even then, they burned the country down.

No, he got 21 years because he systematically strangled the man to death for nine minutes.

That's why he went to jail.

More whites are killed every year by blacks then blacks are killed by whites, it isnt even close blacks kill twice as many whites as whites kill blacks.

You do realize that white people are convicted of murder regularly, right? Pointing to a few cases you personally disagree with does not prove that racism is the rule in every situation. In this case, the bottom line is that Anthony killed an unarmed kid who was trying to remove him from a tent. That is murder regardless of the race of either person involved.

 

[SweetTea]

No, he got 21 years because he systematically strangled the man to death for nine minutes.

That's why he went to jail.

And Anthony is going to jail for stabbing a kid in the heart. What's the problem?

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Wasnt charged as Murder. Negligent Homocide. Max sentence 10 years

How convient.

your feelings arent my problem or relevant to the case,,

the jury saw all the evidence and came to a conclusion that fits the public understanding that a kid murdered another kid for no reason,,
