So what’s the real story on this good boy Antwone Rose? Why wasn’t the officer convicted?


Oh they left that part out? Well on the way to community College Antwone had just shot someone in a drive by shooting, this is clown world shite and Steelers shouldn't honor this thug.

quote:

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette published video footage showing Rose in the front passenger seat of a Chevrolet Cruze, while Hester fired through the rear window behind him.[14] Contradicting that video evidence, drive-by victim William Ross told investigators on January 17, 2019 that Rose was in fact the individual who had shot him: "The beef was between me and him, that car came by, he shot me, I ran to the store."[15]
Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala stated that Rose had an empty 9-millimeter handgun magazine in his pocket, and officials stated there were two guns in the car, a 9-millimeter handgun and a .40-caliber handgun.[16][17] According to police, Hester had fired the .40-caliber handgun.[17]
Trial testimony from a scientist at the Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office showed that Rose had gunshot residue on his hands at the time he was shot and his DNA was found on the 9mm pistol found under the passenger seat.[18] During the trial, Rosfeld's attorney additionally claimed that Rose had stolen one of the handguns found in the car during an armed robbery of his employer just hours before he was shot. However, this was ruled inadmissible by Judge Alexander Bicket, as information regarding the gun theft was unknown to Rosfeld when he conducted the felony traffic stop.[19]



So he had just attempted first degree murder.........and armed robbery

This is obvious but he is a giant man

He came over to Germany and did a ProCamps football camp for military kids last year. My kid got camper of the day so he got to take pics with him (not so subtle brag) and my son looks like an infant next to him. He’s a super down to earth guy.

Because it wasn’t murder. The AD over charged it.

With all the systemic racism and racial brutality by the police you’d think one, just one of these victims wouldn’t end up being real pieces of crap

Now why do you want to go dig up quotes from Hillary that a current presidential candidate endorsed and agreed with?

What's really sad is the SteelersDepot piece that linked on page one of this thread managed to leave all of that information out, but made sure to point out that it was the guy in the backseat who did the shooting, how Rose was an honor student, etc., etc.

Botham Jean but that situation was not the same as it was an off duty cop that busted in his apartment.

They don't say his name enough though. Sad.

Villanueva, a former Army Ranger who served three tours in Afghanistan, decided to break from the team and replace Rose's name with Cashe's, a Sgt. 1st Class who died after trying to rescue soldiers from a burning vehicle in Iraq

Villanuava won't have to pick up his bar tab in Pittsburgh any time soon.

Dude is/was a physical freak at 6'9". At Army he also played receiver and was pretty damned fast.

I don't want to tell him he can't do what he wants

Villanueva's average 2-mile APFT time was sub-13 minutes. In 20+ years service, at half his size, I've run sub-13 2 miles a grand total of 3 times.
