Post by: ren on November 04, 2023, 08:35:20 AM
The tones towards celebrities involved in firearms related altercations is a bit different as you can see in this article.

Inside Puma’s 18,000-square-foot flagship store in New York City, the shoe company’s newest pitchman made a startling declaration.

“I’m trying to be worth a billion dollars by the time I’m 25,” teenage basketball star Mikey Williams told the “I am Athlete” podcast just over a year ago.

At the time, Williams’ goal seemed audacious, if not implausible. Now it’s a jarring reminder of how quickly a celebrated prospect’s dream can unravel. Once a social media sensation who rose to the top of the 2023 class, amassed more than 5 million Instagram and TikTok followers and became one of the early faces of the name, image and likeness era, Williams is now facing a legal fight for his freedom.

Williams was arrested on April 13 in the wake of a late-night incident two weeks earlier at the $1.2 million hilltop home he owns east of San Diego. Angry that visitors unexpectedly showed up to his house, Williams allegedly threatened to shoot them. Then he allegedly fired a handgun at their vehicle as they drove away, damaging the trunk and rear windshield but leaving all six occupants unharmed.


if this was a regular person I think the article would probably have some presumption of guilt.
