When the police got him and were walking him through the courtroom in cuffs the dad of the boy shot the convict in the head as “retaliation” for his son. Got off Scott free.

One of the most heartbreaking things said by one young man is "no I'm not afraid in here home is worse"... for a young man to think Rikers Island is better , and safer than the home he came from is heartbreaking , and very revealing on the path that has ended him up in prison in the first place. What kind of positivity could there possibly be in an environment that he deems scarier than prison? Absolutely disgustingly sad. I just feel like this country needs to pay more attention to these young men who are not violent , and who will be put back on the street because if you leave them to just befriending other inmates , they're going to come out worse than they came in. It is just the way it is , and I think this Warden has some really good ideas but I agree with the guard who spoke about not removing segregation for the 18 to 21 year olds and I agree I do not think segregation should be taken away for 18 to 21 year olds , they can be the most dangerous because they're so unpredictable and immature and unwise in the ways of the world the real world outside of their surreal world in their Hood , trying to prove something half the time. That can be more dangerous than anything however I do think there are measures they can take for people who are in the hole like they said giving them treatment and care and not just leaving them stuck in a cell for 23 hours a day that's the way to go , but if they break the rules violently they need to be put off to their self where they can calm the f*** down and not hurt anybody else. And what the guard was talking about with them wearing their tennis shoes and everything instead of just their flip flops or slides yeah they call that "suited and booted" usually she's 100% right, it does indicate something violent is about to go down ,like she said , no one wants to fight without good shoes and not being suited up as much as possible for protection n hidden weapons ,etc....., but honestly I think it has more to do with the TV cameras in this case LOL

They kinda avoid out right saying he was in a gang and that he was being charged for more then that too but he most definitely isn't innocent. he wasn't there for just killing one person it for sure is one of the main things their trying to tell us but even the media lady basically admitted to saying there was more but she couldn't or wouldn't say.

no, he murdered someone, prison is his new forever home. it's that simple.

RM since when does that make him less than human? he messed up, who the fuck hasn’t? he’s just like the rest of us, and if you don’t think he deserves respect, you’re severely mistaken

M B your morals and mine are different. If that’s how I feel, that’s how I feel. Don’t come and try @ me cause I can promise you I don’t care how you feel. You should’ve commented how you felt and started a thread off your comment not mines.

Fuck Murphy. That's another lost for his family , and black families. We're nation of law. If take the law in your own hand? Nigga please. You're a killer too.

[@cannow8391]

Murphy seems like a genuinely good guy, he seems like a guy who family is very important to him if he's willing to kill for them, people may say they'd kill for family but how many people would actually do it? Murphy would. It's unfortunate that he'll never be able to continue to grow in a stable environment with stable people, but i hope the best for that guy

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Vengeance only produces more bloodshed, more pain and repeats the cycle.

My dad served many years in this prison for a crime he didn’t commit but he’s free now and getting better🙏❤️

[@rexrichardson8834]

Yeah, everyone is innocent. It's a jail not a prison, so no one would be convicted and sentenced to serve a long sentence a Rikers it's a jail, not a prison, you're full of shit, or your dad is full of shit.

[@preed8552]

yo, she prob got it wrong cuz she's a little younger. Don't be disrespectful

[@rexrichardson8834]

@@preed8552 If she old enough to have a KZbin account and post comments, she's old enough to be called out on it. Rikers is a jail not a prison, a person may spend a couple of years awaiting trial, they don't spend 10 years at Rikers, once they are convicted, they may be there a bit while the system determines where they are going to them serve their sentence. Age isn't a factor. If I come out as a cold person, it's because, I lost my mother at 5 and father at 16, so I was forced to grow up fast.

[@preed8552]

Firstly, I respect u for NOT gettn greasy with your answer. Secondly, I understand bout Rikers is a jail and not prison, I'm from and still live in NY, done a few skid bids. Also, she seems young to me so u know how girls are with their fathers, maybe 2 yrs is "many" to her as she stated. I'm just curious...How old do u have to be to have a YT account? I'm 50 so I don't really know. Not too heavy into it. Watch a few vids and comment sometimes.And lastly, condolences to u bout your Mom & Dad. I never had mine, grew up as a ward of the state. So I def understand bout "growing up fast" Stay up yo!!
