      @@TheThugNastyhis time was served than he robbed and committed other crimes and went back to jail. Seem like he didn’t learn anything. He should have done nothing less than 20. It’s great he gets 3 chances. The kid he killed didn’t get any chances. Now that family has to live without that person never knowing what he could have accomplished. White wasn’t out trying to kill people

    Read the whole story, never looked for family to apologise until he wrote a book and came out with this story. Sounds like a bs apology due to guilt for himself and feeling sorry for himself not for the person he killed or his family. Do something genuine for the family. He just doing this for himself, smh

    What is he doing for the family that lost their son, Edward White? Are they going to get any proceeds from the book? I’m all about giving grace, but you should always right your wrongs as well. Saying sorry isn’t going to bring their son back. It’s not even going to allow them to see the future of what he would’ve became in life. So, he has the ability to put them in a position where they don’t have to struggle financially anymore. It won’t bring them peace, but it will make life a little easier. Murder hurts all the families that are left behind- the victim & the perpetrator. I’m glad he changed his life around 🙏

    I'm not sure if I believe him. If he was really sorry he would of tried to bring the prices down when people were being killed for their damn sneakers. As a kid in Brooklyn I cannot even remember all the times I saw people beaten and robbed for their shoes. I also think about the hard working parents killing themselves to buy these shoes that cost almost nothing to make in some foreign land. Obviously I don't believe it's all his fault or Nike's even but something could've been done.

I understand what you mean because I wouldn't want to buy shoes from Walmart but because of quality not the name brand. It has become so ingrained in kids now that they need the brand to be cool. It's not like Nike sneakers are top quality. They're junk made by people who might not even have shoes.

    I tell people anybody can shoot a gun , you don't have to be in a gang to do that , my point is that it's not a so called gang that makes guys shoot at people , it's what's in your heart , and I know alot guys growing up who also claim to be in a gang , but if you were , there is a standard and accountable for your actions , because you have a purpose , and that's is to have a better life , for you and your family , not trying to do something that you know could bring the heat send you to prison for life , so people use gangs as the scapegoat , but in a real organization you do have a choice and you make decisions all the time , and there is No excuse to take a innocent person life , especially some body you don't even know , so don't ever try to justify wrong , the guy who got shot wasn't in the wrong place , we just got Bad people in this world and it's really not fair , that person who was killed could of been the best person to help people find GOD !

      Backbone doesn't change fact nor memory. Overcoming cowardice is backbone? Really?Perhaps authentic backbone is not erroring in the first place. Harm is permanent.
      One could say I'm sorry I jumped into the cold water. But this does not magically reverse gravity ,turn time backwards nor erase memory.
