This is so sad. People say let the justice system work...3 years for a trial? In jail that amount of time over a backpack as a kid. He didn't even commit the crime and served a sentence. Would a white kid have been sent to jail period or even been arrested? I have said this so many times, they don't give a damn. Our kids aren't children to them. People working the system could care less. They will mess up a persons life with no regard, as long as they see a black face. I have been to bail hearings and other hearings. They keep you locked up, reschedule your trial for months. By the time you see court again you will take whatever they give you. If you don't have money for a lawyer or good lawyer you are SOL. It's sad, they broke him down. Put him throught torture for nothing, he never had a chance.

Enough white hoes to last me thru ATL
Our boys get outta prison to a nation that hates them and a family that tells them Jesus will fix it
So very real
Lol, I mean technically he did
But it takes nothing for black men to visit prisons and help mold boys and help them cope. Dude thought up some wild retarded way to kill himself with an air conditioning unit, cuz he had no real support.

Nothing but blacks jumping him. Whites send you to prison only to have your own brothers finish you off. Who were also sent there but whites(deserving or not)

Sad shyt. I'm just wondering how you leave your 16 year old son at Rikers for 3 years over a damn backpack. My mom would move heaven and earth before she allowed that and I'd do the same for mine. I just don't get that part. Little man was basically abandoned and thrown to the wolves.

rapes don't happen to that degree. It's a rare occurrence and even more so in the the youth section. The youth section at Rikers is extremely violent. It's worse than the adult section and they have major issues with slashings. Those kids can be straight savage and eager to prove something to the gangs they rep. Take an innocent kid whose not street, had no rap sheet, no one inside to hold him down, and throw him into that mix and he's food. They had him in solitary for 2 years. CO's beating him up and starving him. Plus he attempted suicide 5 or 6 times while in prison. He never got a trial and thought he'd never get out. He wasn't built for jail.He gets out and it's obvious he had PTSD. He was having panic attacks and was paranoid that the cops were still out to get him. He didn't need a support system, he needed professional help. His family couldn't afford that so he was left with no options.
Honestly, I don't know what his family situation was like but I find it odd that they couldn't see a bail bondsman and come up with some bread to get him out.
Changed your mind huh?6
That's a double post.
This. What in the fukk was the family doing? They have a lawyer apparently. Like....what in the actual fukk?
do you know any of the facts of the case or what was going on? your mom moving heaven and earth aint gonna do shyt up against a racist ass system
So tell me the facts that alleviate this kid's parents of any responsibility for their son being on Rikers Island for 3 years on petty charges that were eventually dismissed fukk boy. No point of bringing your bytch ass in here whining about what I've said if you're not going to explain why there's a problem with what I said.
