Reddit is a mess to read but there is smoke here. We'll see how it shakes out.

Here is an ESPN article. I have to think murder is a violation of team rules even at Va Tech

I think murder on the VT campus is especially impactful given semi-recent events

Early lead for fulmer cup?

Backstory.. a guy catfished him as a girl on a dating site. The catfisher setup a date with the player and then actually showed up and then some craziness transpired. Doesn’t excuse the situation which is a person died.. however had money been involved, that would have been a federally prosecutable offense by the catfisher. Very very weird story.

Might be some kind of self defense claim if the catfisher attempted to rob or assault the VT player. Definitely a weird story.

This is a very bizarre story. Have to wait for some more details.

Someone needs some anger management work while he spends the rest of his life in jail.

Sad story. For both parties. Lives wasted.

That's horrible.

Did he use a lollipop to line up the shot?

Pride month Indeed.
The attorney Turk is the “go to” for Tech athletes in criminal justice system. Maybe the judge who granted bail has seasons.

When in trouble, many Virginia Tech athletes turn to this Radford lawyer

Jimmy Turk Age: 55 Family: Married to Allison Turk; three daughters, Lindsey, 17, Katie, 15, and Alana, 13 Education: Roanoke College, class of 1979; Cumberland School of Law at Samford

VA just repealed the gay panic defense, so that will hopefully eliminate one the more disgusting defenses in the criminal justice system.

Wonder if Jimmy Tuck knows? Interesting that the Richmond paper struck his ridiculous statement from later editions

Justin Fuentes is MIA.
Did he sign off on the OTA for the players to show up in tech gear for the bail hearing?

[texascpa]

hmmm...so it wasn't a hate crime, rather self defense.

 

[kirbivore]

The cops use that defense all the time.

Our board is saying the DA made a huge mistake by not including a lesser offense in the indictment. It was "all or nothing" on murder and the jury can't choose manslaughter, etc., instead.
