Verdict reached in Karmelo murder trial

[Captain Creeper]

He didn't provoke anything, the bully and a crew of his thuggish friends jumped him, and got what he was looking for.

Of course an all-white jury in a racist white town in a rightwing red state will fix things up for him post mortem.

No one is surprised here, but let's not pretend.

Hood boy was never threatened with imminent death or severe bodily injury. Therefore, his use of deadly force cannot be said to be legal self-defense.

Dummy!!

Too high profile. He'll spend years in security housing and live if he's lucky. Too many people would like to 'make their bones" with this punk.

Security housing ? Lol. Get real , if he is lucky he can get into the farming program but that is doubtful , Security housing

I just wish it was 1959

Big difference between life threatening and getting your ass whipped because you instigated

What you're stating never happened, Carmelo was jumped by the bully and a group of his thuggish friends along w/his brother.

If you're a black man with an ounce of common sense and followed the trial, you KNEW that this was going to be the verdict. What evidence was presented that supported Karmelo? I mean, if I was his family, I'd go after the attorney because he didn't present much of a defense. Please don't tell me that you're actually that foolish to fall for the racism banana in the tailpipe?

One of their own witnesses said Anthony was the aggressor

Not a single fact in your post. The jury was not all white. Eye witnesses testified he provoked the attack and was told many times to leave. There was no justification to attack with a knife and the jury agreed. Now lets lock his ass up and protect society from this waste of person.

When cops shoot unarmed people you approve it all day.

If it's lawful, it's lawful.

Your deflection is noted.

 

[MarcATL]

A young man stabbed an UNARMED young man in the heart, killing him, and now he has been convicted of murder.

How is that not justice?

A boy defended himself against a brutal attack by a large football player and a group of his friends, the bully died in the process, and now the racist court is punishing the victim.

How is that justice?

Too high profile. He'll spend years in security housing and live if he's lucky. Too many inmates would like to 'make their bones" with this punk.

You are confusing Texas with a blue state or fed prison system

Hood boy was never subjected to imminent death or severe bodily injury. Even if he was just standing there, in the wrong tent, minding his business and helping all the lags lead a life of religious fulfillment, then the mean white soopremacists jumped him and beat him up, that is not sufficient for a viable claim of self-defense in a murder charge.

DUMMY!!

The IKE era

 

[tyroneweaver]

Don't threaten me with a good time.

It it lawful to use lethal force if you feel your life is threatened.

Except for Black Americans of course.

Where were his bruises and cuts and other injuries? Can you not see them because of his skin color?

DUMMY!!

The way you go to bat for murderers would indicate you have familiarity or accomplice

 

[Jaxsie]

The burden in on the defendant to prove self-defense.

The defense claimed that that Metcalf impaled himself during the confrontation. Which without a doubt was just a stupid theory.

How many times did the deceased grab ahold of the murderer where the murderer was being physically dominated?
The answer is zero

There is no evidence that Anthony was “jumped”.

Do you honestly think they would throw him in general pop in any state? I really don't understand.
