it works for me as long as they keep killing each other.if he goes to jail we all pay for his sorry butt.maybe before he gets killed he will kill a few more of the low life he hangs with..sorry pop cruz,but thats the risk of hanging with this group of thugs...

Typical lowlife style, screaming and hollering in court. These type of people show no class in any situation. They raise their kids the same way.

As far as the sentencing goes, the lawyer should be ashamed of themselves for representing scum bags like this. I love the fact that this shooting left one dead and a trail of other drug dealers dead behind it. You can never have enough dead drug dealers.

As far as this low life scum bag that got off. You will read about him again, scum bags like him will never change. If we are lucky he will be killed in prison over in NJ, before he makes it back to the street.

The comments of all of you so far are down right stupid. Grow up already. I do not know this man at all. But the jury aquitted him for a reason. And my guess would be that there was not enough evidence besides a crackhead to convict him. Someone who is guilty of a murder wouldn't have even placed himself at the house where the killing took place. He would have denied even ever being there. But he must have had nothing to hide and knew that he did not commit the crime so told the truth about his incounters with the victim. So let me just ask, all of you would be ok with a man who is most likely innocent spending the rest of his life in jail or maybe even get a death sentence? I am white let me just say and I don't know what is wrong with our justice system that they are so willing to put a black men on trial for anything. If this man was white they would have never even filed charges against him on that evidence. Congratulations to this man and his family for their victory justice was truly served for you! One last thing I am ready for you all to bash me about my comment even though deep down you know I am speaking the truth. So bring it on!

Let him move in with you if he is such a fine man. See how long it would take till he robbed (or killed) you and the others around you for his crack money.

The reason he got off was because the jury had a bleeding heart liberal like yourself on it. Ten or so years down the road when these animals have totaly taken over our country we will have people like you to thank.

He got rid of a drug dealer, what's so wrong with that. Killing in itself is never good, obviously, but sometimes in the rare gray areas of life, something like this isn't such a tragedy. This dealer could have sold junk to kids or he could have caused someone else's death. Think about how many other lives may have been saved by this scum being wiped off the face of the earth.

Well that last comment says it all...So lets just all kill anyone we feel is "Not Like Us".
Problem solved!!
Yeah right, some of you need help. I guess there's no way to stop any of you from saying what you want. I just dont want you teaching my kids the ignorance your parents made sure you inherited.
