Judging by the types of things that were done to him, my first thought was "this kid is probably a bully, and the teacher got tired of his shit and let the other kids do to him what he had done to them. But his mom is an entitled whiner who has a perfect angel so instead of being accountable, he's gonna be a victim."

I could also be totally wrong. 🤷‍♂️

Unless the woman was hot and naked, why would anyone want to watch a woman shop?

Anyone is free to film me walking through Wal Mart or Lowes any w/e. It will be thrilling footage.

No clue. Maybe she was being an ass or other kind of foolish?

There was a self inflicted gunshot call to his house :(

People can look good on the outside and everybody is jealous of them but you never know what is going on inside.

For those that aren't aware he was in a bad crash in December while riding passenger and filming a built Supra. He survived with a decent amount of injuries. The driver died. As you can imagine this impacted him deeply and his close friends said he hadn't been the same since. No official word that suicide was the cause but it does point to that.

To echo what @DSM Turbos stated - you never know what demons someone is fighting. If he did in fact take his life it's so terribly sad he felt he had no one to talk to. I've buried 2 close friends and a cousin due to suicide. Never saw it coming. Take care of your boys. As men we rarely share our true feelings.

if this is 'horrific' then I'd love to live that person's charmed life

Sounds to me like the Congresswoman (or realistically one of her staffers) actually did a good job of explaining the flaw of handouts, how taxes work, and why the education system is so F'tup. Good job!

So many takeaways here.

1. How are they employed in this capacity with the criminal backgrounds they had?
2. This is a glaring flaw with the government's excessive use of contractors. Each layer removed is a lack of control and accountability.
3. That they are protecting the company who enabled and paid these guys by referring to them as "Company-1" in the documents is embarrasing. It's Opexus Tech
4. How does one get convicted in May, but not sentenced until September? Yet another example of the massive inefficiency of it all.
5. Bad things happen once a bad Akhter gets into your network.

Remember this when you talk about thinning "government", firing Civilian Fed employees and how the same jobs could be done in private sector cheaper.

This is literally what happened here. Used to be these would be sworn Fed positions that required a detailed and recurring background investigation.

I think most of these jobs don't need to be done by the federal government. Remember what the three affected agencies were?
EEOC
DHS
IRS
