I say this without judgement or spite.

More times than not, these things don´t just happen to "anyone".

When the story was originally released about the shooting, I posted...."31 year old law student with a rap sheet, something is wrong with this picture."

Who cares about this thug? Just garbage killing garbage. Should not waste a second on finding the garbage killers.

Also someone should have told the thug that "conflict resolution" doesn´t work in the drug industry.

How many were discriminated against so that this ´person´ could attend College and Law School?

Not really seeing this as a loss to society... strapping the killer down and putting him to sleep pemanently within 3 months of the trial would of course, make it a win - win situation...

Oh well, one can always hope that sanity will eventually return to our society.

Remember the "this is your brain on drugs" ads?

For this guy it was, "this is your brains on a Midtown sidewalk."

Thou shalt not steal from drug dealers.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

I pray for his mother, wife and child left behind, but this is the life this guy chose to live.

Wow, learning the law and breaking the law all at the same time! What a wonderful profession the law is.

Re #5, apparently he was not an affirmative action person. His mother is wealthy, they are from a wealthy family. She probably paid his way into private prep school, Loyola Marymount and law school. He thought he was larger than life. That he could live more than one life. He lost one.

A prominent businesswoman, his mother had shady dealings that caused her business to be shut down.

This is a complex situation. A drug deal gone wrong, involving a lot of money, is the most likely explanation.

I guess they wouldn´t accept a certified copy of the police report as proof of loss. The red tape is really getting bad.

Nothing different than mobsters who send their kids to thebest schools to become lawyers. Sad, but predictable.

The mother has had over 100 lawsuits filed against. Corrupt family.

Didn´t we all know this from the git-go? We should have picked our own cotton.

I knew a guy from a good family, who had every advantage, who decided to be a drug dealer in high school. Luckily, that was before the big cartels would squash you like a bug, and he straightened up, went to law school and even became head of the local bar association for a term. He always said that if you looked at the old booking cards, in the days before computers, you´d find one on him.

I don´t know if this guy in New York was straightening out or not, but I´m sorry his family has to suffer.

it´s nothing personal, it´s just business...

Law School?

I knew a law student that was concerned that an arrest in college for drunkeness would prevent him from getting admitted to the bar.

This guy brings it to a whole new level.

14, haha, that never gets old...nothing like racism.

Did they take the cannolis?

They´re Here.

Nice gig, to grow up rich, privileged and black.

How do we explain the state of the world to poor white kids who have to listen to a culture telling them that it´s all their fault and they need to pay reparations ??

Occupational hazard.

Not surprised one bit. He lived a life of drugs parties, cartels, that only leads to jail, or cemetery.

The pics are blurry, but there´s a definite resemblance to 0bama´s sons, both the assassin and the assassinated!

The getaway driver will be next. His death is assured by the fifth sentence in the article.

These are the kind of lawyers that smuggle drugs into prisons when they visit clients.

And we are told open borders and amnesty is the answer..

He was such a nice boy, he couldn´t do this! s/o

That type of action is unreasonable. Anyone in a high risk activity, whether it be legal or not, should know the possible consequences of some events outside their control. There is more to this story. There is also likely less to the individuals involved. Talk about high motivation and poor management! If the courier had knowledge of his impending death he would have fought it out with the law. I would and I imagine anyone else would too.

And here he was trying to do the right thing meeting with The Boss to explain the regretable loss of a few G´$. What a shame.

It is amazing that someone with his rap sheet would be admitted to law school. To be admitted to any bar in the U.S in order to practice law you have to demonstrate good moral character

One down, thousands of thugs to go. Waste of police resources.

The University of West Los Angeles Law School? I´m pretty sure he didn´t need the benefit of affirmative action to get in there. California has a lot of law schools that are subpar and that anyone can get into. Law degrees from these places are almost useless.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

He may be dead, but as a good Democrat his votes will continue to help in future elections.

Sorry mom...one less criminal, it´s a good day!

#10, he had an extensive criminal record and was attending Law School..........only way for that to happen was to apply a thick coating of AA.........and remember, Bill Cosby´s grandkids qualify for AA.
As does the children of Jay-Z, Dr. J, J-Wow-no, she´s italian, sorry........
