Episode 4 with Korey

I'm on that episode right now. Korey's a real one, a prophet.

 

[NoMoreWhiteWoman2020]

Being as honest as I've ever been when I say I would pay to see Linda Fairstein get burned alive

And still has the gall to live in the Upper West Side not far from where all this happened

Shout out to Korey Wise for using that bread to help other innocent black folks.

Literally any of us could have been him, wrong place wrong time.

Ava deserves awards for this. It’s so well put together from the cinematography to the soundtrack

People saying how Disney is coming for Netflix neck but as long as they can keep producing moments like this they’ll be good.

Was Korey slow?

Yeah he was on a modified instructional program

Also in Yusef’s psychological test they found he had Identity Disorder his mother protected him a lot as a child and it led to him willfully giving in to authority figures and low self esteem and social immaturity, he was a smart kid too

I wish that line in episode 2 about Trump's 15 minutes of fame being up soon was true.

He might have had learning disabilities but you know that’s only reserved for rich white kids like Brock Turner. When I watch SVU and see some of these diagnoses that they come up with to protect white kids, it makes me question the whole process.

Some kids mature slower. But he was not mentally retarded, just a kid stuck between a rock and a hard place

I saw the documentary and got me heated as fukk.

Now, I'm watching the 2nd episode.

This shyt got me heated as fukk. THESE CACS WILL ALWAYS BE DEVIL

Krosy Wise got me


Tron's father just dumb ass and pissed me off

 

[DaRealness]

OK so I just Wikipedia'd this Linda Farstein bytch, I'm not gonna post her ugly ass jew face on here....but it's sooo nice how she got remarried in 2014 and gets to live happily ever after while being instrumental in destroying young black lives (a 14 year old is a fukking baby to me) like it was nothing. I was younger than these kids but I remember living in NYC at the time and people talking about it in school. I also remember how some of those Italian and jewish teachers and police were too so this brought back memories.

And her books are bestsellers

The 2nd episode was perfectly done from the acting, writing, music to the way it was shot

This shyt is infuriating.

 

[FeverPitch2]

I'll watch but not on Netflix.
Not giving Ava the ratings.

 

[BXKingPin82]

On the 1st episode now.
Was waiting for my sons mother to get em.
Me and my girl like we was both around 7-8 years old when this happened.
One of my friends died riding on top of the subway too around the time this happened.

 

[23Barrettcity]

This shyt is scary. That your life can just be over just like that. 20-30 years of pure hell just because some crooked ass racist crackers want to put someone in jail knowing that ain’t the right person just to get a conviction. Korey’s episode is just sad as fukk to watch.

I literally started tearing up seeing the pain in koreys face . Knowing he was innocent and losing his youth and all the brutality he faced
