  1. I have known Elias for years and even employed him. He is not a loser. Definitely caught up with some but he is a good person to the core and I won’t let this page ruin his reputation and he’s still a kid, he will learn from this.

    1. So he’s not responsible for his own actions? At 17 ?! You sound dumb as fuck, when you put it like that. All 3 are children that all did something bad. They can very much grow up to be responsible adults & learn from this. I pray whatever so called “job” you employed ANYONE in is shut down, you shouldn’t be anyones boss ?!

      1. Ever heard of auto correct? It failed me dumbass. Worry about something else in your life than commenting dumb shit on a news blog. You’re probably not worth my time but if you don’t know them then just keep your comments to yourself. They have a mom that doesn’t want to see your whack ass comments. You’re a leech on this community that just wants to watch from the sidelines. If you cared about the community you’d be a part of the solution not making stupid ass posts on KCE.

      1. Always getting arrested, but “always innocent “? Highly doubtful. Parents should learn to be parents and teach their kids properly. They should be in school or working a real job…. not running the streets.

          9
          1. Thought fuck? Hmmm. The trash does appear to be flying “roun dis bihh yo”.

            If your brother that you speak of is one of the three pictured above… he is always in trouble and you failed to help him be a real man. He is headed towards prison eventually. You should probably worry more about that.

      1. AND IM GONE CONTINUE TO TEPLY TO EVERY COMMENT I SEE ABOUT MY BROTHER CS WHO TF IS ANY OF YOU BITCHES ?????? IS YALL PUTTING FOOD ON THE TABLE ROUND THIS BIH ????? AWE OKAYYYY.

        11
        1. Lee IS NOT “putting food on the table” from any legitimate job, so stop that nonsense. He is always in trouble because no one ever gave a damn about him. You only care when he’s in the news. Terrible family.

          1. got a job making his own money senior in high school about to graduate so stfu you white ass bitch now I’m taking it there ..

        2. Hey, maybe be wise and tell your brother and his friends to stop jumping people.

          They are going to end up doing it to some random person who is strapped and puts a bullet through each of their heads.

    2. Bitch my brother don’t play w guns is you coo??? Mind yo mf business retarded ass trailer trash you the illiterate one sitting here beating yo beat keyboard bout some mf teens and why yu smack them nasty ass gums my brother has worked multiple jobs since he was 14 FUCK IS YOU TALM BOUT AND WHY HE IN JAIL FOR SOME AGAIN HE MIGHT LOSE HE CURENT JOB SO STOP TRYNA JUDGE A BOOK BU ITS COVER

      11
      1. Again, what is your point? He don’t play with guns. The issue is he doesn’t know who does play with guns.

        Crime 20 years ago didn’t pay. You would end up in jail.

        Nowadays you will end up dead. Way different game.

    3. They were ALL pushed through the KUSD “diploma factory”. Not one could read or do math at level and were handed a diploma to fudge the numbers. Happens way too much.

            1. these are the same idiots who will confess their crimes on the jail telephone not realizing the convo’s are recorded

      2. Stop defending Kunta Kinte. He fucked it up big deal this time. Master Justice will have to punish da nigga for his wrong doing. He got away once when he raped that boy. Sorry sista, life’s a bitch.

        2
  7. So, commissioner decides to give the $10,000 cash bail to the 17-year-old thug doing thug things, but had no issue releasing a 17-year-old self-admitting pedo with CP out on no cash bail without any conditions?! Make it make sense!

    1. 17 year old thug has been in and out of lockup so much he’s got his own reserved room. They are sick of seeing him.

  8. Y’all ass childish asff yall damn near pushing 40 go wash yo ass yall dnt know shii At all y’all see shii n believe anything. All 3 aren’t criminals kno shi before yall say shii 💯💯

  9. After seeing this article, I’m beginning to think Martel did rape that other kid at ITA and probably threatened him, if he testified! The poor kid was probably scared of this thug!!! Lock Martel up and throw the key away along with these other losers!! Wish his record wasn’t expunged because he definitely isn’t as innocent as he wants people to think!! Look at the smile on the one kids face!! I’d like to knock his teeth out!!!

    1. Stfu they took almost a yr of his life away because of a dirty ass white or illegal ass bitch like you y’all need to go where y’all came from Ice not doing it’s job good enough for me you might just be a pedo dumb ass

      1. Sounds like we should give that girl a medal or else this shitbag would have robbed someone sooner.

        In other words, STFU.

      2. Girl… you don’t realize how dumb you are sounding. And your attempts at writing/spelling show a lot about you too.

        ICE are thugs stealing people. Wishing that upon people shows where you come from. Educate yourself.

    1. fuck that Columbian illegal ass bitch and fuck you too case wasn’t dismissed for no reason dumb ass and also you should look at the one smirking maybe that ah change yo mind goofy 🤣 read the fucking shit again pedo

      1. Y’all see a black boy with dreads and automatically assume some shit 🤣 look at those fucking Mexicans on the screen too😂🤏🏽.

        12
        1. Well we see a person who has been arrested twice and now while robbing someone. Keep your race shit outta here goofy

          10
  10. I supported his mom the last go around, how foolish do I feel. Thug ass bitch is what your son is and needs to be locked away.

    6
    2
    1. Damn that’s cold, what does supporting his mother have to do with this? As parents we teach our children right from wrong & they still do dumb shit. I will always support his mother & any other mother I know, who’s child is in the system.

      2
      2
      1. His mother doesn’t care… that’s the problem. He runs the streets and she only speaks up when he gets arrested.

        No one is teaching him how to be a man, so he’s turning into a jail bird.

  11. Wait this Martell Lee is the kid who got off on the sexual assault case because it was a “miscarriage of justice”.

    So in other words, based on this, it’s 99.9 percent he committed that sexual assault too.

    4
    1
    1. miscarriage of justice ? absolutely not that boy and his dad was maniacs and wanted compensation let’s not forget the kid was also schizophrenic…
