My issue is she picked up a guy who had visibly been shot, drove him to Miles' apartment, and then was complicit in the lie Miles told to police. Most reasonable people in her position would have done things such as drive Davis to the hospital, report he had been shot to police after they got the car out of the area, etc. I'm not saying she's 100% culpable, but IMO there are more red flags around her involvement than there are for Miller's involvement, yet the girlfriend has barely been referenced at all and never had been until the ESPN article to my knowledge.
You're right. She definitely seems like an accomplice.

And an illegal possession of a firearm charge is off the table as well, cause no way ole boy knew someone else’s gun was inside his car??
Alabama is a constitutional carry state. Illegal possession of a firearm wouldn’t apply absent things such as prior convictions, protection orders, etc affecting that right. Anyone over the age of 18 can carry a firearm now without a permit who aren’t otherwise restricted

Of course we can. Everyone in this country is innocent until proven guilty. So, by definition, he's innocent.

Well she wasn’t even called to testify at the prelim or referenced in the police reports. They don’t care about clicks. Just seems odd
Maybe she didn't see it happen and didn't know who shot first and just believed/assumed Davis was defending himself.
Hell it may even end up being determined by the jury that he was.
I mean the other guy had a gun too, and Miles supposedly saw it. And then the Jeep pulled up to them.
I think what does them in either way is Davis approaching the Jeep.
What they should have done is gotten in Bradley's or Miller's car and left.

no, presumed innocent. And the law determines intent all the time with circumstantial evidence, direct evidence being almost always unavailable

I learned virtually nothing new about Miller from that story. So I still don't know whether he read the text asking him to bring the gun before he arrived at the scene.

Do you know they have these things called touchscreens in these newfangled cars now where, if you have your phone plugged in or set on blue tooth, your texts show up on the touchscreen?
It's not difficult at all to believe that Miller could have read that text at a stoplight or even while driving while he was on the way.

It's not difficult at all to believe he didn't read it or didn't know Miles was serious or understand the severity of the situation either.

At least it seems like he has grandparents who are willing to raise him as their own. Hopefully that's enough to keep him from being another statistic.
Agreed on this point. That grandma sounded like a badass and member of the old guard. I respected what she said, including her disdain for the way UA handled this situation with the victim's family. I agree with her fully on that and would feel the same way as her.

I think he deserved to be charged, but I also think he has a plausible defense. I find it hard to believe a jury will convict him of capital murder. I wouldn't be shocked to see him plea down to lesser charges.
Yeah, I bet he pleas down as well. I'm not entirely sure on all the particulars of these laws in Alabama, so when I said he "deserved" to be charged, I was largely referring to my informal, non-legal assessment that he had simply done enough to be charged with something regarding his role in this crime. He had just a critical role in the entire escalation of this crime, and had plenty of time to cool-off and de-escalate. He chose to do the exact opposite of that.

Not sure what you find controversial about calling those dumbasses "idiots," but ok. This just seems like one of the rare times when we should all be able to agree on something.

To reasonably believe that Brandon Miller thought Darius Miles was going to get his gun, hand it to Davis and that Davis was going to shoot someone in the face is ludicrous. It’s disingenuous and asinine.
Miller had no context what was going on… even if he did read the text. We don’t know if he read it, but we do know when it was sent and when the guy in the Jeep left the scene , drove blocks away and called the police.
7 minutes.. it all happened within 7 minutes of the text. So Miller was either about a block away or just pulling up. The Jeep wasn’t even on the scene yet.
It’s stupid at this point to believe that Miller was aware or a party to what eventually happened.

You must have access to a different text.. and the guy that sent it didn’t “bust a cap” on anyone… lol

That isn't true at all.
I'm fairly neutral on the topic.
I don't even follow basketball.
Again, no one knows Miller's intent except for Miller, no one can say if he's innocent or guilty.
