Description

Photos from the party give investigators a new lead: a party attendee who was a stranger to nearly everyone at the Valley View that night. What the police uncover make him the new prime suspect.

Such BS. He committed all these crimes, but was only "harassed" because he was black? He committed serious crimes. Ridiculous, his color is irrelevant.

I'm not listening to any more of this podcast. The host claims that LE only arrested and charged the criminal (and other criminals) because he or they were black. Then he goes on to list ALL the unlawful things this man has done, not one but multiple offenses, but it's all LE's fault, of course, not the criminals' fault. People need to be accountable for their actions no matter what race.

I never leave comments here, but after listening to this episode I was wondering if other people were as annoyed as I was with the host of the podcast ruining a very interesting story with his unnecessary race-baiting approach to the narrative (i.e., inferred absolutists claims about white people, people of color, and police forces) and his astonishing assault on basic logic (i.e., a statutory rape crime history cannot be taken into consideration in determining potential suspects when a murder with sexual overtones has taken place if the perpetrator of the former crime is of a particular skin color!). It is unfortunate for us listeners that a very well produced podcast with a great (though tragic) crime story and an attractive narration (pace, voice, timing) is tarnished with an insufferable obsession for virtue signaling. Ah, for the record: I am not white. :>)

This host is so naive.

Revolting that this host is giving emmaunuel the rapist amongst other things any air time. Then has the nerve to go beyond that and still put his past police history down to his being black. He was dealing drugs, carrying firearms... Black or white, that is illegal and shouldn't be brushed aside.

I do believe Emmanuel should be looked at very closely because often sex crimes are repeated ( aside from race, It doesn’t matter what color an individual is, often sex crimes are repeated). At the same time, they need to look just as closely at Cameron and Neil !

I deff don’t think it was appropriate saying one mistake won’t lead to another when speaking about rape. As no one “accidentally” rapes someone. Based on the information...a 15 year old is not an adult able to give consent. So it is understandable that they were looking at him hard because rape tends to be a repeat offense.

Ridiculous that the narrator is going through such great lengths to defend a guy who raped a 15 year old….

this host is a fool. it's clear to him that had Emmanuel been white he would never have gone to jail for such minor infractions like firing a gun into a wall, dealing coke, mugging someone....Ummm....the problem here is not that Emmanuel went to jail for this, it's that the host thinks a white person wouldn't (or even worse, shouldn't,) go to jail for such offences. Anyone should go to jail for that..Shit, a businessman was killed by a bullet coming thru his hotel room wall when 3 dumb white men were playing with a gun. I've stopped listening.

m extremely disappointed in the authors of this podcast. they don't want to report the truth, that fair was charged with a set crime bc they obviously don't trust the listener to weigh the information fairly, so they admit that they struggled with including that info in the podcast. I'm so sick of media telling me how to interpret the news. the news should be fact plain and simple and the listener has the burden of determining what the facts mean to specifically themselves. and just to be clear, I'm a 2 time felon and look like absolute shit on paper. but I have to stand by my own mistakes and allow them to be evaluated alongside all the positive changes I have made. I'm not perfect. I just want to be trusted with the truth.
