Murder, that ain’t manslaughter
@Alex You are literally one of the problems these days… Hah “got what he deserved”. Nah that’s actually never how life will work out. Mean words escalate to absolutely nothing.
He looks like 20 years would be a life sentence. And if you found yourself fighting for life in court you would find whatever you could to defend yourself. Mitigation is a thing like it or not. Every day ppl are getting too light or too harsh sentences and you probably cld care less. This guy most likely will be in prison for the rest of his life. Seems like justice to me
soooo its okay to murder someone if they call you names? ur an idiot
Guess who’s at the end of the barrel now
@Freshsoap The issue is the black man had the opportunity to leave, and he made the choice to stay and then used the gun when there was no threat to his own life. This was murder plain and simple.
MANSLAUGHTER?!?? that was clear as day murder!! I am sick this is horrible he took the first hit and then shot him completely wrong
@Vincent Tacraebnam And?
“white guilt” and “white privilege” made him do it, so it’s not murder.
@TMoD7007 — Look again at your 2nd degree definition and tell me you can’t see it clearly there. It doesn’t take a magdump. Shooting someone in the back meets the criteria.
But there was probably a holdout juror.
How the hell did he only get manslaughter? That was most definitely murder he started the physical attack then shot a man in the back instead of walking out.
Bc this is Massachusetts and it’s run by fuckwits
@Mike Brown ?
because people are afraid, they don’t want to incite the masses
@Pudding Pop sure, but the law is the law, why he should to be treated differently only because of his skin colour ? that’s not equality
@TMoD7007 Thank you. Good explanation.
Guy walking away… shoots in back. Clearly murder.
@Xerex9999 what’d Bron say when he fought for Tyrian Lannister?
@Charles Henry don’t know what he said, but it’s a fictional character, what’s your point ? people need to become honorable again.
@Cactus Cannon I bet he wouldn’t have killed someone if he wasn’t an easily triggered, violent psychopath.
@TMoD7007 so anyone can plan a murder then get in to a petty fight, kill and claim manslaughter? That’s very twisted and sad logic
@Adi If prosecution can’t give clear evidence of the planning and intention, yes! But it would be a pretty stupid plan to begin with.
Anyone can plan a murder and if his plans were any good he might even never be charged. That’s just how it is…
Hopefully he expires in prison sooner rather than later, don’t want our tax money buying 3 meals a day for the next 20 years
He got manslaughter because our society seems to be trying to start a race war. Dont buy into it
👆 Imagination gone wild 👆
This was from 2014
Bring race into it, typical smh
I don’t understand how this could be called anything less than murder! He got up off the floor messed around got out his gun, the man turned and walked away and he shot him in the back! Murder!!
That is murder all day and every day. The guy who shot him was the aggressor, he assaulted him first, then tries to play victim???
C O W A R D mentality right here.
He said the racists is dead, and the person who killed him is behind bars. He clearly states he has no empathy for the dead man, but never says his killing was justified. He also states early on that some people, like the shooter, will resort to this kind of violence, hence be watchful of how you treat people. He never says he took personal satisfaction in his death.
@slymcfly123 Thank you for that clarification people are just in their feelings im glad someone understands
@Sean Vines yeah word hurt too bad grow up damn does that justify killing a person?
That is straight murder. I don’t care what words he was being called.
You may not care but the court (only thing that matters) does.
@zz3OPEN i think you forgot to switch acc’s weirdo…anyways, what i said is common knowledge lmao do ur own research u spaz
You saw a seven minute video, The Judge, lawyers, and jury probably listened and studied this for hours and days on end. Also, legally, I think murder is when you plan it, like OJ Simpson, I don’t think this guy planned this in meticulous detail. The law has many codes and meanings, otherwise everyone would be a youtube lawyer.
“Manslaughter”?
No matter how I spin it I only see murder.
He started the fight, this is murder.
Do you think if the roles were reversed and the white guy shot the black guy they wouldn’t give him the death sentence?
Massachusetts doesnt have the death penalty
@Johnny Waffles was just a hypothetical question
People would scream racism and riot.
i’ll guess he wouldn’t have gotten 20 years; even with the racism!
No the white guy would just say he feared for his life and beat the case with self defence.
Haha the race card got him out of a murder charge .
Agreed
Hell yea we was kangz need equality
From what I’ve read it’s the fact that the other man had his cane so his means of escape was gone and that was what influenced the jury, not “the race card” as you put it.
Larry Manns maybe you should cite the reading. Or probably stick to blindly defending the race card .
“Manslaughter” aka we didn’t want to press murder because skin tone.
No one in the right mind could actually think that this was manslaughter…. Definitely murder.
he can’t even argue about the cane. He was JUST using it on the other guys a moment ago
How is attacking someone, then shooting them in the back manslaughter? I’ve seen people get convicted of first degree murder because their partner got shot during a robbery!
Felony murder is a whole different kind of charge
That’s because if you’re involved in a crime, whatever charge your accomplices get can also be given to you. So for example if me and you rob someone and i accidentally kill him and we get caught, you can get a murder charge even if i did it because you were with me.
That robbery murder situation is set that way to discourage people from committing robberies or other crimes.
Cant believe he didn’t get murder. Sweatpants started a fight he couldn’t finish then shoots someone in the back several minutes after the fight is over.
Manslaughter?!
That’s murder
All
Day
Long
What’s particularly funny is that there was no charge for the illegal gun.
in Massachusetts you can have your CCP taken away for legally smoking weed, If your town’s attorney is mean enough. Yet using an illegally acquired gun to shoot someone in the back brings no weapons charges
It’s called making a deal. They usually go with the stiffest penalty. In this case it would have been murder. I wonder if the murderer had connections with the judge.
They always plea out the 1 yr mandatory for possesion without an LTC.
20 years for killing a man behind his back. The “justice” system is a joke.
@James Nice comparison of apples and yo mommas
You wanna talk about jokes?
In most Nordic countries, this guy would have gotten maximum of 8-10 years with a chance for parol. And if he was a first timer, his real Sentence would be around 5-7 years at best.
He won’t make it in prison, he’s old he will die in there.
What kind of men shoot in the back….. If was some related I don’t wait the justice. !
Hmm I wonder why he only got 20 years for murder…..I mean “man slaughter” . Your right what a joke
