The victim brought $9,000.00 cash with her to sell her car to someone else? Must have been prepared for a long taxi ride home, I guess.
Sounds more plausible than the report! But if she’d already sold the weed and collected the cash, why hang around waiting for “Brian” to return?
🙂
What kind of world do u live in that a 50 thousand dollar car goes for eight pounds …wish we could all live in that fanasty world
This sounds sadly reminiscent of the murder that happened at Thorn Junction several years ago. 3 black males in a green car, looking to buy weed after Reggae. One had a hand gun, another carried nun chucks, the third, a large rock. She’s lucky she’s alive.
That was a friend, and they killed him right next to my other friends property, she remembers it too, that’s how she was able to tell the story…
All I know is this happening down in benbiw is kinda odd… I’m not racist or prejudice a bit but there aren’t that many black folks around here. Well be watching in benbow…
Im not being racist either but people should know by now the types to not do business with…shes lucky she didnt get shot in the head like others i’ve known.
I’m a little bit racist, but at 12:00 AM EVERYTHING looks black to me. They coulda been Mountbatten pink too.
You are being racist, and they could have come from anywhere. If I was black and ripping people off, I certainly wouldn’t be hanging out in Benbow.
Well I’m black, so your white guikt is calling me racist
Well I’m black and I [edit]
My guess is that she wasn’t selling a car at midnight, lol. I wonder if they took her for more than 9k but she reported 9 to avoid additional questioning about having more than 10k in cash.
I’m thinking she came w the cash and the car and now has none of it and there was definitely weed missing form the story.
I wonder if white men did this if racism would even have been brought up,I doubt it.yes stating skin color can help with identification,but let’s not link crime with color.
I was just saying with our demographics around here, unfortunately soemone with dark skin like an African American will be easier to remember seeing than a white boy
.. P.s I’m black
Be on lookout for three black guys is more specific than be on the lookout for three guys… I mean three black guys together in fucking Benbow?
So if it were three white guys they wouldn’t be suspicious. That’s for sure racist.
“Just the facts Mam” Dumb da Dumb Dumb Dumb! The story you just read is true, kinda. Names of the victims were withheld to prevent embarrassment. Bill Gannon: “Glad nobody got hurt.” Move along folks.
Did she take 9k is cash incase they needed change for the purchase? Who takes 9k cash to SELL a car? [edit]
Ya, and no one sells a car in the dark at midnight. She is really stupid for lying to the cops.
If I called the sky blue would that make me racist?
In today’s world, yes. Everything is racist.
Also, a sexist. Blue is a male color…
