@MajToure He used deadly force that resulted in a dead kid. The jury heard multiple eye witness testimony and even the defense own witness said KA instigated the encounter. I think the facts did not lead to plausible self defense claim.
Its all very sad.
@_LaJanee_ Or the fact patterns and his life history won't lend to any type of sympathy from the jury on sentencing? Ita possible this is just an open and shut case of murder and he is gonna get the book thrown at him
@wyshynski What does it say to management that if you dont deliver a winning team that your star players are going to bolt. SY should have filed for unemployment this summer. Instead Detroit is keeping him on.
@acridkey@JohnWhe40958858 Thats not how it works. The defense can subpoena any witness that has testimony that would help their case. Metcalf can't refuse to testify unless that testimony would be him admitting to a crime in which case he would take the stand and plead the 5th which would be good for melo
@_LaJanee_ No expert was going to attach their reputation to this trial. The facts dont support self defense so no use of force expert was called. I am sure many were consulted and declined to testify.
Its not hard to understand that.
@MajToure The defnese rested without calling a use of force expert to testify that Anthony's conduct was in conformance with law for lethal self defense. Its a really daming fact.
@CoffindafferFBI Putting him on the stand will not help him. He will be asked pointedly by the prosecution why he didnt leave when asked. They will make him look to be the agressor. His verbal outburst with the police of I ain't alleged. I did it. Will crush his attempt at remorsefulness.
@swampbuild Orks are super popular and marines are marines. They sell regardless.
That said. This game is getting popular. Its not longer a niche hobby imo.
@Bbmorg I think I would wonder why someone alegidly making racist comments needs to be cuffed? He wasnt resisting and was cooperating as much as a dieing man can. The cops are 100% culpable in his death.
