sounds like a really drunk Repath took a swing and missed which seems hard to do and then took an average punch and the landing is what caused the death, hitting your head on the ground on concrete while drunk is probably not the ideal scenario

A punch is usually not gonna cause bleeding on the back of the head, he had to have hit a curb or something while falling down drunk

I'm sure all those involved outside of one arrested including Repath's friends have been told by their lawyers to not post or say anything about the fight to avoid incriminating themselves

More would have definitely came out but all that came to a halt when he died

You want him to be innocent so bad. How is he related to you?

The fight started insid the bar. Marsiglia and his clan were waiting for the dead guy outside to fight again. You can't claim self defense when you are literally outside waiting to fight. He is going to do some jail time, get over it lil buddy

That doesn't appear to be what happened

According to a police report, Repath and his group were involved in an altercation inside the bar just after 1 a.m. Police said Repath was walking backward out of the bar when Marsiglia and his friends were in "hot pursuit." The document said Repath swung at one of the members in the group. He missed and they hit back, knocking Repath backward.

The same place we all will. Might as well enjoy the ride.

On topic: is this kid from the Marsiglia family that built most of Elmwood?

Affidavit states kid pushed repath, didn’t even punch him. So he dodged punch from dead guy and pushed him and he charged with manslaughter??

An assault that lead to a death. Are you really this dumb?

Are you? If the affidavit truly says repath swings and the accused pushes him and that’s it, I will bet anyone there is no chance manslaughter sticks. I would actually bet it never even makes it to trial

I think that can be written off as definitely false at this point

it also says the kid was in hot pursuit (dumb wording) of the dead guy. You don't have to wait to be attacked before defending yourself.

You have to beyond a reasonable doubt conclude the accused was the aggressor. Actually, you have to convince a jury unanimously the accused was the aggressor

The video is going to need to be so clear this is the case. Or every witness from neutral parties will need to state that is the case for the state to stand a chance here.

Without a sucker punch, or beating the victim while on the ground it’s going to be tough to establish beyond a reasonable doubt the accused was the aggressor.

Are you a lawyer? I'm not, but it doesn't look good for the kid arrested.

I’m not a lawyer but jurors aren’t made up of lawyers. I would need to see clear evidence beyond reasonable doubt the accused was the aggressor. The state maybe able to do that. I find it tough when their own affidavit says repath swung first and the accused pushed him. They are going to have to prove unanimously Repath was not the aggressor even while punching first. Possible? Of course. But seems like an uphill battle.

A bunch of my FB friends know the victim and are seeking justice. But the more I see of this story, the poor deceased guy was drunk and at least 50% responsible.

Actually, you just need to convince the jury he committed any action that contributed to an individuals death in the absence of intent to cause severe bodily harm.


I dunno where you are pulling “aggressor” from as if it is some legal term relevant to LA’s definition of manslaughter.
