      1. I saw that.

        I also see they arrested Carlito and have posted his mugshot.

        The braids, neck tattoo, and unremorseful look on his face are par for the course.

  1. If this idiot is responsible, will most likely end up spending the rest of his life in prison. In the end soft on crime liberals did him no favors.

  2. Looks like Dougvillo let him off last time,Gabrielle twice before that and Milisauskis before that.Who’s turn this time?

  3. It’s just a shitty culture, and all of us normal people need to point it out as much as we possibly can.

    15

  4. Hey Mike Graveley, this senseless death is on you. Congratulations! When you have a 16-19 near olds appearing before you with neck tats they obviously have no family life, incarceration is the only option for rehabilitation.

    20
    5
    1. I agree on the legal system lacking on this one and could have possibly been avoided if they locked him up in the first place but I’m confused on What a neck tat have to do with anything? 🤦🏽‍♀️

      11

      1. If you’re confused about giant neck tats, you’re probably confused by pretty much everything. Or you’re just full of it.

        2
        5
      2. Any company that will offer you a career, not a job, a career, will expect no tattoos above the shoulders. With knowing that, how could any parent allow their minor children to get neck tattoos? The parents are shit and this thug comes from a broken home, guaranteed.

        So Sonya, if you think neck and face tattoos are cute, then your future husband will be a Walmart employee for life, enjoy that $30k a year.

        1. I’m have a career making well over 6-figures. I have a neck tattoo, actually of an american eagle. It’s time to retire the conservative “no tattoo/visible tattoo” stereotype.

          1
  5. I hope commissioner William Michel is learning something from being soft on crime and giving low bails. This is the result you will get every time. Thugs not learning anything and now someone is dead and others injured!

  6. I hope he gets his ass raped repeatedly in prison. Fucking piece of shit. Make sure you out and dox his shitty ass (and probably illegal) parents, too.

  7. Yup this is what happens when society grows up without showing respect to fellow humans and law enforcement. They can’t control their emotions. Just like what’s happening in Minnesota.

      1. It’s the principle. Those people in Minnesota are mentally unstable and paid protesters. You don’t see this problem outside of blue cities. Pull you head out of the sand

    1. Well a kid is dead and they have a person of interest in custody with a lengthy record especially with gun possessions… hmmm

      4
      1
  8. This would be on Milisauskas.

    You give 9 fucking months in jail to a guy convicted of possession of a firearm by a felon? What a fucking joke.

    Enjoy your retirement.

    3
    3
    1. And might I add 5 months of that was apparently because he couldn’t get the money for bail….so he basically 4 months in jail for this.

      5
      2
  9. These soft on crime judges and the ADAs that let him plea his way out, need to be put behind bars for letting this thug walk with dropped charges and probation!! Had they done their jobs, none of this would have happened!! Unbelievable!!! Then we have people sitting in jail for petty stuff, while these real criminals walk free!!! Make it make sense!!!

    3
    2
  10. Name In Custody Race Gender Height Weight Multiple Bookings
    1DL24ZX0 AYALA, CARLITO AZTLAN Yes White Male 5′ 8″

    I suspect Aaron is “white” the way Carlito is ”white”. You know, when the police are asking for help from the public, they should really be a little more succinct in there descriptions of the people they are looking for.

    2
    1
    1. That was a description given by witnesses, plus it’s possible that this lunatic refers to himself as white, because he has no clue what race he is. Aaron is probably the juvenile that they can’t name since he is 16 yrs old. Minors are protected unless he gets charged as an adult!

      3
      1
      1. Maybe if his parents didn’t smoke crack all night and day and paid attention to what her children were doing , this wouldn’t have happened, Js , it’s not his fault his mother smoked crack and he was born retarded, that kid is slow and people took advantage of the boy obviously and he just wanted to look cool cause parents neglected him and he needed love and attention and that’s how he decided to get it thru showing these fellow reject children he was down to do crimes to get attention! FACTS

  11. Most democrats cry and run their beliefs and campaigns on stricter gun laws. Thousands of leftist judges and DA cater to the community and allow trash like this to not be held accountable with numerous arrests and convictions. You liberal idiots want stricter gun laws, start by not electing these idiots that issue the punishment of a crime. This loser should of been in jail

    2
  12. Is he a confidential informant or have some other “Get Out of Jail Free” card? I just can’t see any other reason he keeps getting parole after gun charges and reckless behavior. I
