During their investigation, officers were able to retrieve surveillance video from Fred’s bar. The camera inside the outdoor tent area of Fred’s bar showed a group of guys talking to two other guys. Arresting documents say, “During the conversation, Devin Repath walks behind several of his friends and punches (redacted name) in the head. That person then falls to the ground. The groups are separated.” A little while later, three guys are seen walking around with Matthew Marsiglia, the suspect arrested in connection to Repath’s death. Arresting documents continue to say, “Repath is then seen backing out of the bar while exchanging words with (Redacted name) and Marsiglia. Repath backs up into the parking lot and about halfway into the parking lot, Repath stops and attempts to hit Marsiglia. Marsiglia ducks and is not hit. Repath then backs up several steps and Marsiglia then takes both hands and shoves Repath by the shoulders causing Repath to fall and strike his head on the parking lot pavement.” That’s when Repath’s friends tried to help him and flagged down the officer working extra duty. It’s unclear at this time if any other arrests are pending. BRPD continues its investigation into the incident.


This really changes my outlook on the events. I wouldn't be surprised if a grand jury doesn't moves forward with this, if this is how it works. Let them fight it out in civil courts but don't waste tax dollars on this.

That skinny little frat star killed a grown man? Jesus Christ.

The taxpayers pay for civil court too.

I apparently don’t see what many posters are seeing but this is what catches my eye:

That’s a lot of verbiage indicating the deceased backing away.

But ultimately, I don’t care about the legal arguments here. There’s too much unknown or unsubstantiated. It’s a damn shame all around and stupid tragedy that could have and should have been avoided.
