      I gotta say the above comment has me upset. A few people, specifically women said he's "acting like an immature child" when the police told him his GF is dead.
      I think a lot of women start off believing the man is always guilty. And any hysteria or throes or despair over the loss of his significant other they believe is a well thought out display meant to convince police of his innocence.
      If that's the case, it's not "being childish and immature".

      Drug interactions: Yeah alcohol is a drug, lots of people forget that. Doesn’t mix well with a lot of things.
      Don’t drive: Depends on the meds & depends on you. Some meds can make you lightheaded or loopy or whatever & you shouldn’t drive, but that may not happen (not all side effects hit everyone equally), it may happen but only for a week or so until you get used to the drug, or it may be that the entire time you’re on that medication you have the issue. The warning is there to tell you what you need to watch out for.
      And yes, you can get a DUI for driving while impaired even if the impairment is due to medications taken as prescribed. Generally they only do that if you cause an accident, though.

    • @Neremworld

      The reason why it was retried was because the judge ruled that the victim would not be on trial, as the defense wanted to just purely attack her instead of proving him not guilty. She disallowed it, and the appeals court found it to be the wrong decision in this specific case, but that the trial was otherwise fine (and the decision normally sound).
      So the second trial occured with him being allowed to impeach her character as much as he wanted. The juror stuff that EWU focused on is something I haven't ever seen brought up anywhere else.

    After watching about 100 of these videos of guilty people, I completely believe this is the behavior of an innocent man. He loses his mind at the 911 operator begging them to come and then he's absolutely ELATED that she is alive, during the first part of the interview you can see what a good mood he's in. He knew that her being alive would clear him. Then when informed she was dead he had the appropriate utter shock, almost disbelief, then it turned to him being emotionally devastated. After he broke down, and quickly switched to rage that he had been purposely, deceitfully, led to believe she was OK. He has the outrage of someone who is being falsely accused. He clearly has a problem controlling his emotions but nobody is this good of an actor.

      Every state has their own laws about it but an autopsy report is considered to be a confidential health record (HIPPA.) If you’re a close family member you may be able to get a copy. The family has to provide written permission for the hospital to release it to anyone.

He keeps saying "You guys don't know what you would do in that situation" but we have records of hundreds of thousands of calls to the police where it's their first time calling 911 and reporting an emergency and they aren't as belligerent as him. 5 year old children would have communicated better hes a sociopath and a narcissist and clearly used to duping rubes like the fools in the comment section claiming he is innocent.

      Heck, I've "only" suffered with major depression and anxiety and been on benzos (as prescribed) for a while, then had two double screwdrivers (so four shots of vodka, total) and felt absolutely wasted, and was glad I don't have alcoholism, despite it running in my family, because I can easily see how and why benzos are both incredibly helpful for managing anxiety and panic attacks, but also easily abused and addictive, tolerance and so ineffectiveness rises fast, increasing the risk of addiction even further.
      Just from that one night where I combined a pretty minor amount of alcohol with 15mg of a benzo, I could easily see how out of control by behaviour could have become, if it wasn't aware how loopy I felt, and asked to head home to bed! Especially when self-medicating legit mental health issues is so common for a reason. Numbing the pain, fear and trauma is what everyone wants to do in some way. Her particular diagnoses also predispose her to the wild swings in mood and behaviour, then she's mixing large amounts of uppers, downers, powerful prescription meds, street drugs that could be mixed with anything, and alcohol. Her own public social media posts confirm she is also possessive, jealous, controlling and not afraid to threaten violence, backed up with the deposition from the ex, that even her sister confirms she'd attacked her "once", and the video clip where she was the one to attack him first. That's a lot of evidence that weighs heavily in his favour, and it was all excluded from court!
      There are so many flaws with the investigation, the court proceedings, the misconduct by people in power such as the judge interfering with jury decisions to force a conviction... plenty of reasonable doubt, not nearly enough compelling evidence proving beyond a reasonable doubt that he murdered her. Which means he should have been given a FAIR trial - impossible with the same judge, and same all white jury judging a black man being portrayed as a violent criminal who "took the life of a lovely, pretty young white girl"... I'm sure part of his hysteria must have been terror, knowing how so many will immediately make a snap judgement and assume his guilt.
      Not to mention surpressing the evidence of her mental health and substance abuse history too. Based on the evidence seen here, I'd have to vote not guilty too. Dread to think how many more years he will lose of his freedom and life. Hopefully the innocence project will get involved.

I don’t care about what random judge is supposedly a nice guy, corruption of all kinds is rooted deeper than the justice system however its those corrupt judges forcing unconstitutional laws on us and politicians enforcing it. I also never said let the public go wild, in the 2nd amendment it states “A well regulated militia (Regulated meaning trained, militia meaning (a) group(s) of the people with the common interest of freedom and security of common rights, not imposed by any state or government body) being necessary of the security of a free state (also meaning free from governmental corruption, enforcement of law and security when the law i.e judges and police no longer enforce laws to keep people safe such as rampant drug use, repeat violence, and other offenses and judges letting those offenders back out over and over again until they kill someone.) The right to keep and bear arms will not be infringed, including infringing on the right to customize your arms the way you see fit or what certain weapons you can or can not have. Not saying hand guns out like candy, I agree with background checks but it is our right as americans to amend, dismantle, replace etc our government when our government is no longer fit. People like you, scared and weak minded are too afraid to do anything and would rather be complicit because “thats the law” or “thats the way it goes” and people who talk about guns are “nutjobs”. Get a grip, preferably on your own AR and fight for not only yours but the country’s rights. Btw people and government are not necessarily two seperate entities.

      Its insane, I'm from South Africa and we have a corrupt system like most but this would never happen if there was a second trial. Also, the evidence and studies, as well as expert testimonies pretty much proves his innocence. Her tweets were erratic and dangerous at best. His recollection of the incident with her sister was not something he needed to say at all but it just pointed in the direction of her being mentally unstable. Not to mention the eerily similar situation her ex boyfriend had experienced with her. All of this is just something a seasoned law professional can't ignore, let alone a jury of ordinary citizens. I can rant on for days about how this is messed up on so many levels but its just youtube comments so won't really make a difference.
      I'm also disgusted by the fact that people are literally laughing at his reaction to finding out she had passed away. It plays into the same narrative that juror was talking about, everyone wanted him to be guilty, regardless of the evidence and expert testimonies.
      Regarding her drug use. I was prescribed a benzodiazepine med to deal with my anxiety. One day, I took literally one more than prescribed and blacked out. It was figured out by parents that I had taken my entire monthly quantity straight after I blacked out. I don't remember a single thing from that day, including getting in my car and driving to a friend, and having a serious accident on the way there. I can easily see how she could get into the position of doing what he claimed she did, considering she was pretty much walking with a drug dealer's supply in her bloodstream.
      I hope he is innocent and gets justice one day.
      PS: I am off benzodiazepines, and will never touch it again.

There is no way someone stabs themselves in the sternum multiple times in front of you and then you call your homeboy first and then the police and proceed to not give any information to the dispatcher... He keeps saying "You guys don't know what you would do in that situation" but we have records of hundreds of thousands of calls to the police where it's their first time calling 911 and reporting an emergency and they aren't as belligerent as him. 5 year old children would have communicated better hes a sociopath and a narcissist and clearly used to duping rubes like the fools in the comment section claiming he is innocent.

    the way he reacts to a lot of things here reminds me of my ex when he would drink. a tortured and misunderstood soul even by himself. we would get in screaming matches almost weekly, but when we broke up we were sober and it was completely amicable - we agreed we weren’t good for each other and should break up. we said one last I love you, sobbed in each others arms, separated our belongings and arranged individual living situations. since then he’s gone to therapy, addressed his addictions, and works to better himself daily. I’m still close with his family and I see him every now and then, there is no bad blood. but seeing (and especially hearing) this gave me flashbacks; I can’t continue to watch this video.

    Also, in the video he recorded just before the altercation, he clearly was telling her calmly to leave while she was sitting on the floor - then she stood up and attacked him after.... So firstly, he did try to get her to leave in a rational manner . Secondly, Why would he record a video if he was planning on murdering her? It just doesn't make sense to me that he would first ask her to leave AND be recording it, if he had any plans of stabbing her. She could have got up and left and nothing would have happened...

      This seems like common sense but that's not the most efficient way to handle emergencies when you are dealing with more than one emergency at a time. Dispatchers need to know who is hurt, how badly, and any scene safety issues first before allocating the right help, and seek to never mislead a person by telling them help is coming until it actually is.

    • @eLhawX
      @eLhawX Před 28 dny +28

      No, it should be civilians common knowledge that once you call and give details, they send help. Dispatch will not send officers blind into any scene, they need to know how many people are hurt, what injuries, how many people are in the house, where the weapon is, etc. This is so officers don't respond to save someone and get ambushed and killed. When you call 911 and give an address, help will be sent, but you absolutely have to answer questions and it won't slow down the help. The general public is just too stupid.

      It was enough to get a retrial. He was convicted again, and appealed once more, and it was denied.
      It's notable that the appeal was over his desire to suppress statements he made to the police that were instrumental in his second conviction.

It always surprises me how people don’t see that, but it is literally textbook racism to assume bad intentions based on one’s race. There’s nothing wrong with having an all White jury.
