Late Monday CMPD would charge 47-year-old John Joseph with second degree murder in Monday's deadly shooting. Investigators still haven't said if Joseph was the owner of one of the vehicles.

But Dequandary's Momma La-syphilis said he was a good boy and his life was gonna turn around someone just needed to give him a chance. She's also that the let him lie in the street like a dog. There was no reason to shot this upstanding young man said the Rev Neeh Mo Yo Money. And his Sista Fri'chikenisha blamed CMPD for being racist and not policing the area after dark. He's father Doin-TenTwoTwenty said from central prison that he wan'na make sure he get his share of the reparations.
ReplyDelete@1518, that is very racist. Please come see us on the 3rd floor.
ReplyDeleteSomeone smoked his sorry ass but good. But it won’t stop the next one from hitting these easy targets. Hood culture ain’t gonna change.
ReplyDeleteIt’s almost December, Charlotte da needs a murder conviction. The shooter here will be the one.
ReplyDeleteIt’s not right, but it’s life in Charlotte 2023
They charge the shooter John Joseph with second degree murder.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe this bunch of BS from command: police say they're "looking for a peaceful resolution to stop the violence before it happens again by working with nonprofits and community groups to address some of the underlying causes that may lead a person to take part in these types of crimes.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so nice. I’m not holding my breathe, but I waiting on my transfer.
DeleteAs I heard this AM Joseph came across the perp in the act and got into a shoving match pulled out his gun and gave him four rounds in the back as he tried to run away. I'd say this is a win in if there's a conviction. On the other hand the shooter has no priors so maybe the DA will toss the case. Speaking of toss the case DA Merry Weather tossed all charges against Demont Forte so I heard last week. Anyone comfirm?
ReplyDeleteYou pull the trigger and kill someone in Meck and your going to prison.
ReplyDeleteThat’s some funny stuff. If he were white, it would be 1st degree
DeleteBut Charlotte hasn’t convicted a murder in years. Always a plea. Hope this guy fights it.
Five rounds in the back well maybe a little excessive.
ReplyDeleteThat guy wasn’t trained in CMPD bs UOF continuum.
DeleteIf you pull that trigger once…it’s intent to kill…so pull it 11 times.
What a shithole Charlotte has become.
ReplyDeleteEveryone wanted to be like Atlanta. Careful what you wish for.
DeleteTell his momma he didn't suffer. Much.
ReplyDeletePerfect example of FAFO!
ReplyDeleteThinning the herd.
DeleteThe statement from CMPD PR Clowns "looking for a peaceful resolution to stop the violence before it happens again by working with nonprofits and community groups to address some of the underlying causes that may lead a person to take part in these types of crimes" is just sick.
ReplyDeleteHow about the truth lack of parenting skills, or parents at all, a free stuff culture, lack of any consequences, lame DA and Judges.
How about some damn accountability?
Damn Straight my nig
DeleteCharlotte used to be such a great place. I just sat at a bar with some city planners at the city. They were all queers and dumb. We wonder why things get worse every year. Drinks up!! SMHHHH
ReplyDeleteNo amount of social services will change this culture. The noogies are just not ever gonna get it. You can't change them so you have to control them. Prison is all they understand. As long as we have liberals running the courts and the jail and the DA and the police we are going to have this sort of lawless behavior. They believe it is ok to steal from target, your car, your home, that street takeovers are acceptable, the killing and robbing people is ok, twerking is sexy, big ass women or 10s and free stuff is their right. It is never going to change. 1/2 of the department lives out of county and let me tell you it is not because they like the commute. Happy Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteIt’s costs $110 to house a black man in prison. It makes them worse when they get let out of their cage. How can we afford that?
Delete110 each day
DeleteIt's all good.... Hidey Hole!
ReplyDeleteCMPD hangin or hiding along Indy past Eastway about 8 of them looks like someone is about to get a surprise visit.
ReplyDeleteThat’s like any office on a holiday. That means they hate their shift sergeant on 2nd shift and would rather hang in a PVA then be in the office.
DeleteCourts should have popped the BWC videos lose 24 hours after the request> Waiting two weeks just allows unjustified anger to grow due to the BS narrative pushed by the BLM idiots and local liberal media.
ReplyDeleteWhat’s the word on Sgt Willis? Is he headed to prison?
ReplyDeleteWho is investigating that? Feds? CMPD?
DeleteWILLIS JUST QUIT NOW!!!!
ReplyDeleteRUN!
All the guys need to quit and lawyer up. JJ already said the public has pull in this case, which is not justice at all since they don’t have any legal training.
ReplyDeleteNo need to lawyer up when you stay in your Hidey Hole! Yall just don't get it.....
ReplyDeleteWell, I mean, technically your hidey hole won’t do much to protect you if you happen to have a side gig maintaining kiddy porn like Sgt. Willis, but yeah sure, solid advice otherwise.
DeleteKill Willis if they have evidence
ReplyDeleteThere are a ton of molested cops around here so that looks really bad for Willis. The ptsd warped his psych.
ReplyDeleteI'm lost. Too much time in the Hidey Hole will do that. What did Willis do?
ReplyDeleteTried to chat up a minor online that turned out to be a cop. Then got his locker and home search warranted and allegedly was found to have some kiddie pornos.
DeleteWillis???????
ReplyDeleteEvery time we start to get some respectability around here this happens.
Geeesh.... I think that deserves a trip to gnarfle the garthok....
ReplyDeleteKiddie Porn? What the fux is going on around here? Was he talking to kids at work too?
ReplyDeleteMeck County DA just dropped all charges in the Bojangles case.What a incentive to get out there and continue to do a good job.Nothing ever changes in this god forsaken county.Watch your backs !!!
ReplyDeleteIt was just weed. No one cares and that cop kneed the bitch.
ReplyDelete"The Clues are all around us"..... Hidey Hole!
ReplyDeleteHidey hole is BS. Get out here and be somebody.
ReplyDelete^^ Please refer to WSOC, WBTV, WCNC, and the Disturber. You will NEVER be the 6 O'clock story in a Hidey Hole! And you most certainly will not be named in a civil suit after going all Nature Boy on a biscuit slinging doobie smoker. Every ghetto rat knows that all they have to do is resist arrest and wait for Benjamin Crump to ride into town. Especially when our very supportive DA drops all the charges. That is plenty of motivation for me to stay in my hole.
ReplyDelete^^Never meet your heroes
DeleteI think you missed the stories Rook. The overwhelming majority don't see this as a win for CMPD. If this is a "Hero" moment for you then I hate to see your bad moments....
ReplyDeleteI love Ryan Butler’s recruitment techniques of where CMPD cops go in their spare time. The cops don’t even come inside the county lines!! Everyone lives outside and avoids crowded places.
