That's f'ed up.

What a little punk turd.

"Deryl Dedmon is thin, weighing a mere 130 pounds, and short -- at 5 feet"

Little punk could never win a fight without a vehicle. He's going to make some dudes in prison very happy. Hope he enjoys some unwanted loved.

LG posted this yesterday and this is the first time I seen the footage and this is terrible. A crime is a crime but LG was stiring the pot yesterday.

Yeah forget life in prison... That's a waste of resources. Tall tree + short rope = problem solved. Cheap and easy.

from a defense perspective, you have to hope your client had been drinking at that party they were at until 5 in the morning. If he was drinking, you can try to argue that he didn't INTEND to hit the man, but was simply drunk driving and not paying attention or lost control of the truck.

Proving a hate crime is very difficult. The prosecution will need to show some affiliations with hate organizations or find some kind of direct evidence that this was racial motivated to show the intent to murder. A statement at a McDonald's probably won't be enough and someone shouting "white power" (which wasn't even the defendant I don't think) will be difficult without audio on the recordings.

I think a capable attorney could get this reduced from 1st degree and I doubt the hate crime murder theory sticks.

Dedmon told friends they should leave, saying "let's go f*** with some n-word," according to law enforcement officials.

Dedmon allegedly boasted and laughed about the killing, according to testimony given by some of the teens to detectives.

"I ran that n-word over," Dedmon allegedly said in a phone conversation to the teens in the other car.




If his friends testify for lighter sentences or no sentences at all, it shouldn't be too hard to convince the jury it was a hate crime and that it wasn't an accident. He specifically said he wanted to go find black people and bragged about running the guy over. Case over if they testify against the little punk.

But it's not gonna happen. Let's stick with something that is actually a possibility. Life in prison will be hell for a 5'0, 130 pound guy.

Wow, what a waste of your life. You live 18 years and spend the rest in Hell.

It's fitting that in every jail photo I've seen of him has a black man or woman leading him in handcuffs.

I wonder how many times these kids have done similar things and got away with it?
Personally, the two girls in the truck with the low life should be charged with accessory to murder.

I hope and pray that this scum bag gets the death penalty and i hope its a black guy that gets to light him up.
