It was on our local news the other day but I found a more detailed article. The song is life changing. Read the story first.

quote:

“I’m 30 years old, and I’ve been fighting for nothing all my life,” said Holmes, according to the Daily News Journal (DNJ). “I’ve been fighting for gangs…I ain’t never fought for anything that made sense. But I knew the Lord was telling me to fight for him this time. I just knew he was stirring on my spirit.”

Holmes told the court he deserves his life sentence, calling it a “badge of honor.” During his time in prison, he has come to realize the gravity of what he did by killing Lopez-Flores, who had three daughters. Holmes also explained that he used to have an extravagant lifestyle, but now he plans to encourage young people in prison to turn to God and not to material wealth.


quote:

Holmes’ family was present as he read his 20-minute statement and cried while he did. At one point, he addressed his mother, saying, “Momma, you know I love you. But Momma, I promise you, your baby boy, he’s going to serve the Lord forever.”


Awesome story

Prosecutor should have played 3D chess and dropped the charges.

More interested in reading the details of the case. What transpired, what was said, what happened at the house and why he was killed and how etc.

His last name is Weaver. But that's not the point.

That song sucks. I'd rather the singer's opinion on the Popeye's chicken sandwich.

Dude went to someone's house and murdered them. Not like he got away with it and out of the blue turned himself in. He was a prime suspect.

David Berkowitz has said the same things, does it sit well with you too?
