Wonder why no complicity to commit murder? Here in KY a guy shot and killed an intruder (Castle Doctrine) and intruder's buddy got charged with murder. I guess every case is differently.

That's what I was thinking, doesn't he know the two other people

According to Ward, he and two others met Carson there to purchase marijuana

Some thieves have no time to think, they act on impulse. I mean where did the zip ties come from, and why would it be needed, unless they were fed information on the victim.

* l have to chuckle that someone disagrees with my opinion. It's mine, where's yours? I like to think that if you have a better idea to counter mine, have at it, give me the chance to dissect your? Don't stick move commie.

As they say No imagination.

What are the names of the two males that were in Ward's car with Ward? Even if teenager Ward was drunk or high, he should be able to recall at least one.

RIP Isaac Carson.

There was a scratch-off winner in Canton, Ohio that was robbed and killed after winning a nice jackpot. I believe they murdered him for under $200. Tried to find a link to the story but found several recent stories about other murder/robberies.

There is a reason they call it dope, but who would think anybody had the entire $50 grand in their wallet or money clip

Wanna bet, that Ward told he's passengers My cousin sells weeds, and guess what? He just won K50 on a lottery scratcher. The snap ties were to kidnap the cousin force him to cough up the money. I mean, you leave Ward's vehicle, get into the backseat you pull out a gun don't point it at Ward, but the barber?

This was a robbery for more than weed, after all, you can buy that crap at another street corner, it's the scratcher money they were after.

I heard about this a while ago. So tragic. RIP Isaac Carson.

I am praying for the victim family as he is continuing to rip now.

However, i know this much,

-Zero evidence and only going by a hunch or a feelin? Not evidence.

-No real proof= NOT GUILTY and i've been on California jury and here in NC.

-Prosecutor has to show without a doubt some 1 did what they are accused of,

and if not, i am one who will hold out for hours. days.month if warranted.
