@kattnotwilliams IMO opening and closing arguments should be gone • it’s not evidence • it’s a chance for the state to tell a “story” with nothing backing it • Jurors should only get a brief written synopsis and weigh the “EVIDENCE or lack of it”
Edrick Faust Update: Edrick Faust told the court he was working on hiring a private attorney for the appellate process, according to the Athens Banner-Herald.
Judge Lisa Lot pointed out that, until Crews files a motion to withdraw, he's the counsel of record.
According to the Athens Banner-Herald, Crews said "I am here as an observer." Crews also mentioned Faust has not raised enough to hire a lawyer.
The hearing was a status hearing for the motion for a new trial.

@Holiistically FYI: your sentence depends on your state you live in, not your color of your skin. 15 year old white girl got LWOP. Some states “M” is automatic life, don’t matter your age, race or gender. KA got a light sentence compared to most!
@DerrickEvans4WV Has anyone ever gone into their siblings room and refused to leave after being told to get out 15 times?
So they push you, what do you do?
Kill them? Every time someone you know or don’t know touches you, you can’t kill them. That is the bottom line.
@letstalkliveytc A lot of people wanted LWOP but I thought from the beginning 30-40 years would be a sufficient sentence taking into account his age. He will be 55.
I guess the jury was thinking like me. Surprised they gave him 35, thought they would give him less.
@kattnotwilliams I was thinking extreme anxiety and panic attack, I have them. The first thing you do is try to control it because you never want anyone seeing you that way… I think he was trying to stop it…
@Greatinfo888@DeniseFelty3@LakenHopeRiley@KatTheHammer1 I will answer you, he didn’t expect to get murdered over something so stupid! He was being a 17 year old idiot not minding his business but being an idiot doesn’t give anyone the right to kill you. To kill you must fear for your life, so why didn’t other guy get staff?
@Greatinfo888@KatTheHammer1 Has anyone ever touched you, pushed you, punched you? Did you kill them for it. I know I would be in prison if I killed every person who pushed me starting in elementary school.
SMH you are missing the point, why didn’t Mello go get staff, works both ways!
@RickyChanRC@BoozeyBeauty It was inverted, inverted has 2 different meanings. 1. placed or lying upside down 2. in the opposite position, order, or arrangement from usual
