I was thinking the same thing, too. Even if that is the case (and I hope it is), then it's not as if the charges are "trumped up". It is what it is. You and I know it's a lot different than if he waited on the corner for the weakest person with the nicest car and then jacked em, but our interpretation means nothing in a court of law.

I'm glad to see he has a lot of loyal fans who are willing to support him.
Everytime I seen him post, he seemed like a chill dude.
Bad choice, bad outcome.
