    There’s something about the amount of time spent in jail without trial, and something about how they could have just walked right out if they had the money.

    And then there’s something about how this is how the system is by design - it’s not some freak procedural accident. It’s incredible that it’s allowed to go on like this.

      Also remember they are now knows as the parents of that murderer… how many jobs do you think would be interested in them? (Granted before this apparently the dad was doing Door Dash, but the point stands)

        They are known as the people who bought a gun for that murderer. They also ignored school warnings that their son was prone to violence, texted him “Lol I’m not mad at you. You have to learn not to get caught”, and then hid from police when their son did what everyone warned them he might do.

        How many people do I think would be interested in hiring them? Ideally, zero. There will always be someone else looking for work who has far better judgment.
