The bouncer who allegedly threw the punch that led to the death of former New Bedford School Committee member Eric Pope is now facing third-degree murder charges, the Philadelphia District Attorney’s told WBSM.
“Following investigation by (Philadelphia Police Department) Homicide, the District Attorney’s Office is charging Kenneth Frye with murder in the third degree for an incident that occurred in the early morning hours of April 16 outside of Tabu Lounge & Sports Bar in the Gayborhood section of Center City,” said Jane Roh, spokesperson for Philadelphia D.A. Larry Krasner.
“Frye is alleged to have punched a patron with such force that it knocked him to the ground. The victim, Eric Pope, passed from his injuries, which included trauma to the brain, on Saturday, April 23,” she said.
Pope was unresponsive when EMTs arrived and was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was placed in intensive care before passing away Saturday.
Frye was not an employee of the bar, but rather of a private security firm hired by the bar.
If convicted, Frye would face up to 40 years in prison.

Would like to see the private security firm training protocol before commenting. Are sweeping hooks part of it?

Seems more like negligible manslaughter than murder.
Hard to prove he intended to kill him

FAFO.
The puncher, that is. He’s about to find out that wearing a security shirt and cold cocking people is a ticket to prison. FAFO.
Condolences for the dude who died. Hope he wasn’t being an a-hole who deserved the punch.

Probably one of these states where third degree murder is the same as manslaughter in other states.
Eta- in other words, it may not require intent in PA.

On its website, Tabu refers to itself as “the best Gay sports bar in Philly.” According to 6ABC, other bars in the area in recent weeks have had similar issues with employees of that same private security company. That has some concerned that these are not just assaults but also hate crimes against LGBTQ+ patrons.
Well then
