VT LB has a killer instinct

One of the people that went to the the apartment (but not inside) gave testimony that Etute told him he thought the guy was reaching for something. He gave that statement before it was revealed by police that a knife was there. So it lends credibility to the belief that it was self defense and not that the defense knew of the knife and later tried to concoct their stance around that fact. That timing was critical. Had the statement been given after the police reveal, that defense becomes much more murky.

He absolutely concocted the story after the announcement of the knife. The FIRST thing he would have told police was -- the guy reached for a weapon and I was defending myself. That isn't something you bring up after the fact.

Exactly. It’s the first lie anyone would say to the police in that situation. “I was scared for my life. I thought he was going for a weapon.”

It’s a messed up story on every level. The bottom line is he got his dick sucked by a man, was angry/embarrassed about it, and as a result decided to bludgeon the guy to the point where he broke every bone in his face to make sure he was dead. The dude’s a liar and a murderer and deserves to do prison time.

Meh. It might not be right, but as far as I'm concerned, the dead dude is a known rapist and creep. It's never murder when trash like that does the world a favor and dies. It's a damn shame the dude didn't die years prior.

Yeah -- I have no dog in the fight and honestly know very little about the case. But if the dude actually reacted to the guy reaching for a weapon -- it would have been the first thing that came out of his mouth to police.
