Before Malone began his storied two-decade career in the NBA, he played at Louisiana Tech, where, as a 20-year-old college sophomore, he impregnated then 13-year-old Gloria Bell.

I mean he legit should have been hung in my opinion

Anyone who as an adult sleeps with a 13 year old is incurable and a danger to society


Yet, here we are celebrating him throughout society because he does the hoopy thing real good

Also this is great

quote:

Brian Hanlon, the artist who created the statue, said he tasks his attorney with digging deep into the background of his subjects, and the lawyer found no evidence of Malone’s sexual misconduct.


Yet

quote:

Malone was never charged with statutory rape for his sexual relationship with a minor, though his paternity of Demetress Bell was determined in court.


His attorney really dug deep. So deep he didn’t realize Bell, the son born from the 13 year old that was proven with blood tests was malones, was actually at the statue unveiling standing with Malone

I could understand mistaking a 16 year old as of age… but 13???? Disgusting.

Black man that’s a pedophile. Totally shocked an institution of higher learning would erect a statue of them.

Not to be graphic but I’m curious how a 12 year old even have such a large object inserted where it went. I mean Malone was a big and tall dude when he was 20. I’m sure he is above average… a very sick person. How can a grown man even think about a little girl to get off….

Karl Malone is straight up trash. I was also reading he’s been buying up land near the bayou with the intent of changing the laws to allow him to own the waterways which would allow him to strip the trees.

I mean, maybe he thought she was 14. Ever think of that?

How on earth does a 20 year-old impregnate a 13 year old and not get charged with statutory rape?

IDK how he feels about Disney World but he's a big financial supporter of Republican candidates and has served on the board of the NRA. LINK
