Hmmmmm, he keeps stating my decision, as if that's important for people to know,hmmm, but what about your brother, he looks up as if he trying to remember something,( stick to the script) they really worked on him, all lawyers tell their client what to say ( wake up yall).he seems to be a nice guy, his brother sang gospel and drake every morning, they seem to be a nice family, so it was probably easy to convince him, Why did y'all ( is that his pastor?) want him to physically forgive her? To make sure the world saw him forgive her. He looks uncomfortable.

I’m not listening to Botham Jean’s brothers’ explanation of the forgiving hug because we all grieve and forgive in different ways. So who am I to judge.....

You're a vicious, bitter, angry clueless, ignorant person. We will all pray that a miracle happens and you are enlightened. The world needs many more Brandt Jeans. He is loving, selfless, courageous, wise way beyond his years and he is filled with the holy spirit. I commend the Jeans for raising two such loving, delightful men. We can all learn something beautiful from this family if we are open to love and not hate. Vengefulness does not make you a more superior or better person. Quite the opposite.

He needed to forgive her for his own sake; I hope the poor boy and his family can find peace. He did something incredibly hard but I don't know how he was able to touch that remorseless murderer.

He could have waited until she was in her jail cell, visit her there and then He would have been able to minister to her and be of better service to both privately. THIS was a photo op for the MEDIA.
