regardless of what side you fall on, he has to live with the fact that his actions(whether u think were right or wrong) indirectly or directly led to a murder. I would have a hard time sleeping at night.
Alabama basketball player charged with murder- Update Projected lottery pick provided gun
- Thread starter FakeNews
- Start date
Man this case is exhausting. That’s a gigantic detail and outlets are reporting it differently. Fwiw, AL.com is the one who writes it as a direct quote from the cop, while SI and dailymail write it as if they’re paraphrasing. And AL has it as Miles’ words.
It has to be Miles’ words for Miller’s story to stand up bc he said he never touched the gun
What’s not making sense to me is
1- Police say the shooting happened at the 400 block of Grace street. On Google maps that’s not at the interaction of the strip (university Blvd). Grace st is off University but 400 block is a lil walk down, and it’s the middle of an apartment complex. But the mother/cousin said they were waiting for food
food truck? they sellin plates out of the apartments?
2- Miller’s lawyer said ‘actually, Miller was already parked’ and that’s when Johnson’s car pulled up behind him…but
a) the mother/cousin said after the initial altercation Johnson wanted to leave but they were waiting for food, which implies they were parked the whole time, from Davis ‘dancing’ until they came back. So how/why would Johnson be pulling up behind Miller?
b) The lawyer says the shooting happened seconds, not minutes, seconds after Miller arrived (allegedly not knowing there was a gun). But they just said Johnson’s car arrived after Miller?

Most of us would. But apparently it's considered a character strength if you don't let weak shyt like that affect you and just go out and have fun.

Your cousin got charged because his boy told him he was about to do something crazy and your cousin still took him over there. I haven’t been keeping up with this case but I’m almost positive if dude that played ball knew what was about to happen he would be charged with accessory too. Someone asking you to bring them their gun and you bringing it to them isn’t illegal. Someone telling you bring me my gun I’m about to kill this nikka and you bringing it to them is a different story. I don’t watch college basketball so I’m not as invested as other people in here may be. But just because you don’t like something that happened doesn’t mean you can make laws out of thin air to charge them with. A crime has to be committed for someone to be charged. It seems like to me they wanted the boy arrested but after investigating what happened there wasn’t anything they could charge him with. Someone correct me if I’m wrong
It's said that a text message was sent to him that implied some shyt was about to go down. Now his defense is that, "He didn't read the text prior to arriving"
So again, I just find it extremely odd that he was able to walk without anything coming down on him. Seems like that would have to be something he would have to prove in front of a jury, but I'm not a lawyer, so idk.

Id have to know what exactly those texts said to be absolutely sure but from the posts I’ve read in here today. The texts basically said: bring me my gun, he replied it’s in the hat and it’s loaded. If dude didn’t tell him what he was going to do with the gun before he brought it I can see a decent lawyer beating that easily. Do you know if the texts have been released somewhere so we can see what was said?

This is a dumb argument. The purpose of shoes are to walk in. The purpose of a gun is to kill. Its not reasonable to assume shoes are a deadly weapon but Miller and everyone knows that a gun is a deadly weapon. Especially when your intoxicated friends are texting you to bring it to them cause they are in the middle of an altercation. Legally or not he bares a large part of the responsibility for the death of that young woman.
If you know your friend is drunk and left their car keys in your car and ask you to bring their keys to them and later they get in a crash killing someone.. sure you can technically say you didnt know they were actually going to attempt to drive drunk. You just gave them their property back. But it would be a gross negligence on your part and show a lack of concern for human life.
Court hearing reveals Brandon Miller’s role in fatal shooting

The text said: "I need my joint a n****r rl jus got a fakin."
If you get that text at 1:38am from someone asking you to bring them a loaded gun to the streets and you don't realize what's up, you're a fukking idiot.
He hasn't actually made that defense. Coli capers lied and claimed he made that defense. The lawyer is running with the, "He didn't know they were going to do anything illegal" defense and hasn't once said that he didn't see the text or didn't know the gun was in his car.
Even if he hadn't seen the text, there is zero reason for Miles to send that text and expect Miller to show up with his gun unless Miller already knows where the gun is.

Miller was already on the way to pick up the guy sending the text.He never read it and the gun was retrieved not handed off.How do you charge him as accessory without hard evidence that any of his actions were influenced by the possibility a fight/shooting was going to take place.Even him blocking the vehicle took pkace long before anything happened.
No matter how many times y'all repeat this made up bullshyt, it won't magically become true.
The fact that y'all have to keep outright lying on his behalf with lies even he ain't using shows how bad you know the optics are.

I don’t even know wtf that text means breh to be honest with you. Also you can’t charge someone with what you THINK they know. If it was my sister or daughter I would want everyone involved in the electric chair. With that being said you can’t charge him just because you want him charged.Court hearing reveals Brandon Miller’s role in fatal shooting

I read that on ESPN that he didn't read it til he arrived ,and he was already on the way.If the gun was legally his how can he be in trouble for its owner getting it back.Do yall even know the law on what qualifies you as a accessory. They charge people and build cases of laws being broken not feelings.
