University of Alabama: Why are you not asking Miller to confirm whether he read the text?

The text from Miles to Miller 7 minutes before the shooting:
If Miller read this text prior to delivering the gun, then Miller had an objectively clear basis to know the gun could be used in the commission of a crime. A gun is not used in the commission of a crime if it is used for self-defense, but self-defense only applies when using the gun is necessary to protect oneself or others from serious bodily harm. If Miller did read the text prior to delivery, would it be a persuasive defense that he thought Miles was needing the gun out of necessity and had no other option to de-escalate the situation? I don’t think any reasonable person would find that to be a persuasive defense.
So U of A, why are you not asking Miller to confirm whether he read the text? Do you not care? Do you not have standards? Are you afraid to lose a good player off your basketball team?
If you have asked Miller to confirm this, you should let the public know you are in fact doing your job the way it should be done.

According to Miles’ defense attorney Mary Turner, Miles texted Miller at 1:38 a.m. the day of the shooting, saying “I need my joint [gun] a n****r rl jus got a fakin.”
“They’re faking, which means they were threatened, right?.” Turner asked Culpepper, referring to Miles’ text. Culpepper indicated that he didn’t know, to which Turner replied, “I do. I looked it up. Urban Dictionary.”

In his defense, Miller probably can’t read

They already know he did. It's more important to insecure Bama fans to "win a game" than have any morals.

Wouldn't that be a better question for the police?
How do you know he hasn't answered that question?

His attorney’s statement yesterday was silent on this question.

That would ruin their plausible deniability

No it wasn't. It clearly said the text was sent after he was already on his way there.

So you don't know and are making assumptions.
Cool.

The question is whether he read the text prior to delivery. The attorney’s statement does not confirm or deny this.
Posted on 2/23/23 at 9:56 am to Jon Ham
He’s already cooperated with police, turned his phone over to have texts read, and his attorney confirmed that already.

Yeah, that’s the fricking point. He hasn’t confirmed or denied this, and it appears the University of Alabama doesn’t want to ask.

Of course it does. It's illegal to text and drive in Alabama.

Man, it’s a simple fricking question and you guys are twisting yourselves like pretzels to avoid it:
Did he read the text prior to delivery or not?

1- The investigation can confirm it. It's within the system of the phone.
2- We don't want to know.

Based on what?
They have been cooperating with police since the day of the incident.
You're just slinging shite on the wall with no clue as to what has and hasn't been asked of Miller by anyone.

I put the odds at 50% that Miller is even literate to read the text.
Posted on 2/23/23 at 10:02 am to Jon Ham
There’s no way to know if he read the text prior to arriving. It’s Miller’s word to say whether he did or not.

Does not mean anything to this.
