The pink ketchup should realistically have failed because it came right on the tail of the "Pink Sauce" which is simply not fit for human consumption.
For the few people unaware, here is how the pink slime #2 went down. This is going to be a long read but every one of these deserves more than the few sentences here and I encourage you to view the videos about this laugh riot.
-This woman, "Chef Pii" appears out of nowhere claiming to be a celebrity chef. You can just say things like this and people will believe it. Despite the product being made in an apartment people immediately believed this due to some form of credentialism.
-The pink sauce has completely undisclosed ingredients, and known ingredients that are bizarre or alarming which include milk, and for some reason lemon juice, which of course spoils milk instantly, as well as glitter. Not a food safe glitter, but obviously metalized round plastic glitter you would find at a craft store.
-She was selling these to people for $20, and they would occasionally arrive exploded, as they were not shipped or handled in a manner you would expect for something that contains milk. There are no instructions of how to handle or store this, no tamper evident seal, and no information as to what it contains on the bottle. It also does not resemble in any way the "sauce" seen in the video. I honestly believe she is eating Pepto Bismol here instead of her own product.
-People became VIOLENTLY ill and were hospitalized after consuming the unidentifiable substance, which reportedly had a strong smell of rotten eggs and would swell due to the amount of bacteria it produced. Despite reporting the foul odor, taste, and other properties that should never describe a food item, this means people still consumed it. The bacteria involved was later revealed to be Clostridium Botulinum, which is known as, and the cause of Botulism, which in the amount present is certain to be fatal. It is a miracle that nobody died, though permanent injuries occurred.
-When responding to the criticism, she simply stated all of the people who were harmed were making it up as some personal slight against her. When asked about the FDA approval she became offended, stating that she does not sell medical equipment. The supposed celebrity chef does not know that the "Food and Drug Administration" is responsible for the safety of "Food" if you could call this that.
-The bottles then began arriving with something that looks like the nutrition label you would expect to see on a consumer product, but with obvious misspellings, and improbable weights, serving sizes, portions, and of course still no information as to the contents. This takes it from incompetent to illegal.
-SOMEHOW, this woman gains a giant brand deal with Dave's Gourmet. A novelty hot sauce manufacturer who's gimmick was campaigning in a straightjacket. The now FDA approved shelf stable product is a completely different shade of pink, not previously seen in the 50 shades of sauce of on this consistently inconsistent product when it was manufactured personally by "Chef Pii". It is of course a failure, and quickly began selling at dollar stores after failing to make a single sale for several weeks when originally stocked at Walmart.
-She then claims she was not paid, and was defrauded by Dave's Gourmet, who claim to have paid her $120,000 in royalties and the partnership contract. It was later revealed that they paid her over $40,000 up front, an additional $30,000 which she was intended to use to handle refunds and liabilities of her product BEFORE their involvement, with an additional $40,000 cash advance from future payments. They revealed she also billed a massive birthday party, designer shoes, and a $400 nail appointment to them directly as promotional and business expense. Her complaint is later re-phrased in that she did not receive this $120,000 at once, but rather several smaller payments that she wasted, and she does not understand (to this day) that those smaller payments were not just free money for other things. She later complains that she is being evicted, was previously homeless during this agreement, and was unable to feed her children, in a video where I can spot nearly $4000 in designer products.
So what was my point here? People bought a foul smelling and dangerous mystery slime that was being cooked by a homeless woman simply because it was pink. You can literally sell anything to women by making it pink. You can literally just tell them anything you want about a product, and they will not only believe it, but spend more money on it than products that are superior in every way.
His lawyer was quite competent. Tried everything. But the problem is that the witnesses all helped the prosecution. The video helped the prosecution. The timeline helped the prosecution. The problem, for Karmelo's lawyer, is that his client was factually guilty of murder.
Too late. If he was “sorry,” he should’ve pled guilty.
Instead, you thought you’d turn on the money machine by attempting to make him a civil rights martyr.
You belong in prison next to him.

so tired of seeing his fuck ass face. complete shit eating "y'all doin too much" expression, probably the same one he makes whenever the teacher would tell him to stop being obnoxious in class knowing they won't actually punish him. i've seen it on countless narcissistic blасks whenever called out by white people on their behavior, a look of entitlement and awareness of two tiered justice not only in the courts but in society at large, the look they give a white person for being naive enough to think they could politely ask them to turn down their bluetooth speaker. "bitch you really thought you did sumn? sybau" this shit just bleeds endlessly into every corner of society because we keep refusing to lock them in fucking jail when they stab a classmate to death at a track meet. constant reminders that "we already expect nothing of you so we'll let you get away with anything"
@bizlet7 The point of these questions is often to exclude American workers so they can say, "See? We can't find any Americans to work this job, so we need immigrants (who are cheaper, and we can practically keep them in indentured servitude by hanging their work visa over their head)."
