    Waw it took a crazy man to take out a retired gangster.
    In any event it’s not right and let justice be served.
    I know both of them very well.
    I talk to both all the time but more recently I have observed Kevin seems to have a serious nerve breakdown it’s the worst I ever seen him, he did need help and the system failed him as much as his relatives.
    This leaves me feeling very sad.
    Condolences to family of the deceased BabyJ.

    When you live like a gangster you die like one. I said what I said

  • Intb February 25, 2026, 8:27 PM

    Extremely sad on every level

  • Donna February 25, 2026, 8:14 PM

    He didn’t give life, so he shouldn’t have taken the man’s life. May he be severely punished and hanged by the neck. No judge nor jury is needed for this—just take him to the nearest tree and hanged him.

  • Ryan Wedding February 25, 2026, 8:10 PM

    That crime was full of passion. Babyface had your woman or what or he owed you money. Which is it exactly

  • Mama February 25, 2026, 7:50 PM

    I will never advise anyone to drive with their doors unlocked and their window all the way down. I’m very paranoid when it come to that

  • Biggs February 25, 2026, 7:31 PM
