Now I definitely knew he was in tbe wrong but that defense was definitely not a 500k defense attorney. He's getting played by his family which in this case proves why he ended up doing what he did. Raised by a dirt bag family and end up doing dirt bag things.

Black people backing into supporting a repeal of Brown v Board of Education is never NOT funny

Occasionally we get patients from state prison in the ER if they have surgery or suffer a severe trauma, and it would scare the heck out of you some of the stories I have heard about their injuries. One dude had a fractured skull from another dude beating his skull into the concrete floor over Ramen lol

Like the rest of the people posting here, I did not personally watch the trial and can only go by what has been reported by some presumably reputable journalists. It seems to me that this judge ran a tight ship and he’s to be commended. From what little I know, it looks like the prosecutor did a great job presenting the state’s case. I see only two issues for appeal and they’re both very, very weak: the exclusion of the 3 black women from the jury; and the admission of the autopsy photos. It look like there was a valid non-pretextual reason for excluding the black women jurors so that probably isn’t going anywhere. The autopsy photos probably clinched it for any juror who was having doubts. The question would be whether that evidence’s probative value outweighed its prejudicial effect. Anthony is going to need a very smart appellate counsel to brief and argue that aspect. And, I’m not even sure whether Anthony’s defense attorney made a contemporaneous objection to the medical evidence being introduced in the first place. Basically, that’s all I see for appeal and I don’t think there’s a snowball’s chance of this thing getting reversed.

RFK is champing at the bit to take him as a client.

Of course, that means Karmelo would hang. So Karmelo is better off not appealing.

I remember one Thanksgiving a few years ago, in North Baton Rouge, a guy killed his own brother over the last piece of pumpkin pie. That’s how cheap life is to some of these people.

it's not so much "Life is cheap", exactly. It's more like in the jungle you are king, or nothing.

You saw this w/Karmelo. "Leave the tent? Yeah OK, I couldn't find any shite to steal, so I'll go."

That's not how it goes down in the hood. You don't take orders.

This is why you never get into an argument w/a black guy in front of his woman or even worse, his posse. He can't back down w/o losing face. It will very likely escalate into a fight.

No one watched the trial, it wasn’t televised. The black’s in the jury pool stated they could not convict a brother, so they were cut. Why would admission of the autopsy photos be inadmissible? The jury had every right to see exactly what that murderer did.

Anthony has claimed indigent again, just like the first time and he will get a court appointed attorney to defend him. His parents pissed away over $650,000 in a year and claimed they couldn’t afford to hire a decent defender.

If he had any damn sense he’d get an attorney to secure the remaining Go Fund me funds and have it put into an investment account so when his felon arse gets out he’d have something especially when he can’t find a job.
