Miller knew the gun was in the car. Even though some of you are claiming that the statement says he didn't know (something I thought at first glance too, as it is written to make their client look as rosy as possible).

It says: "
quote:

Mr. Miles brought his legal handgun and left it in the back seat of Brandon's vehicle. Brandon never saw the gun nor handled it. Further it is our understanding that the weapon was concealed under some clothing in the back seat of his car.


It says Miller never saw the gun, never handled the gun, and that the gun was concealed. You could infer that therefore Miller might not have known the gun was there, but the statement doesn't say that and we pretty much know that Miller knew Miles had a gun and left it in his car. The text is evidence of that even if Miller truly didnt read it.

The fact that it is disputed when or if Miller read the text is likely another reason the DA is not interested in prosecuting Miller. Its another thing that might be hard to prove, and there might be a lack of evidence that shows he read the text even if he did (like if they use iOS messenger that even has read receipts, but Miller only saw the text come up on his phone, but never opened the app)

A local columnist who wasn't in the courthouse, didn't hear Culpepper's testimony, based his opinion on the Tuscaloosa News report (which he linked), and then summarized it in such a way that his source did not. Reading is fundamental.

If Miller hadn't seen Miles leave the gun his car, why would Miller read that to mean "I need you to bring me my gun,"?


Oh yeah, I forgot the attorney said his client had no idea he was riding around with a gun

Why does Brandon Miller need a defense attorney if he hasn't been charged with anything?




Don't ever talk to the cops in a criminal investigation without an attorney present, even if you know you are innocent.

THEN WHY DID HE RETAIN AN Attorney?

Innocent people totally keep lawyers on retainer; especially 20 year old college freshman.



Because he agreed to cooperate with law enforcement? He agreed to provide information and testimony in multiple interviews during the investigation.

There are 2 professionals one should have on retainer that can be reached with a simple phone call 24/7, their lawyer and their accountant.

Even if he did know that the gun was there, the most important question legally and morally is still the same

Did he know he was driving to an altercation and if so, when did he figure out?

He didn't read his own text from Miles saying "bring me my gun"?

That statement alone cleared a pretty big hurdle for the folks that have lamented for 2 days claiming Miller intentionally blocked the path and trapped the Jeep.
It certainly provides the criminal defense attorney’s narrative, but that alone isn’t sufficient to say the hurdle is cleared without some additional corroboration. He claims it’s clear in the videos, which will be played if this goes to trial. We will see.

quote:

If it is true that Miller's car arrived before the Jeep entered the scene, then it means it Miller didn't help intentionally set a trap.
We know the Jeep was already in that area before Miller arrived. We don’t know how complete or accurate the detectives narrative or the criminal defense attorneys narratives are about that fact.

This only proves that someone is lying about the texts or furnishing a weapon. It’s an attorney speaking on behalf of his client.

Gotta love the Bama circle jerk

The lawyer's statement, while obviously slanted toward his client, does explain a huge piece of the timeline.

Miles sent the text at 1:38. The victims met a cop at the Walk of Champions at 1:45. Even if Miller saw the text at the instant it came in, that's a very short window. It makes perfect sense if Miller was already en route and fairly close.

The whole situation sucks and we're never gonna know the entire story. heck Miles and his attorneys might've made those statements to get Miller in trouble in order to shift part of the blame. I hope he is innocent because it sucks when kids like Miles frick up and ultimately ruin their trajectory on their life. Also isn't anyone innocent until proven guilty

Actually it makes the attorney look sleazy and you look somewhere between naiive, ignorant, and completely devoid of common sense.


texag7 is a waste of cells

Anybody with room temp IQ realizes this is becoming a he said/she said sort of thing.

I’ve never seen Gumps and Danny so excited that an attorney spoke on behalf of a client.
