It's hard because from one perspective, I don't even know what a top-tier defense looks like in this case.

Just probably just some big buck lawyer who's able to sort of spin things around a little bit.

It doesn't seem like they were capable of doing that.

The defense, it seemed, with the witnesses they called...

couldn't really break through or crack that self-defense argument here.

They definitely made a mistake in the spokesperson that they chose for their family, but this is a natural progression of things.

When you see a crime like this take place and, um,

when we saw this and it first hit the news, you see the elements as they add up.

And oftentimes, when you turn over the stone, if you hear hoofbeats, it's probably a horse and not a zebra.

Things make sense.

It makes sense why the different pieces of this puzzle led to the full picture that we're now getting.

And Carmelo Anthony's parents make sense.

Austin Metcalf's parents and that part of it that may have played into this conflict and what eventually ended up taking place, it all makes sense.

So it's like, yeah, I agree with you.

They made some mistakes.

Yeah.

But like the mistakes that they think they made is like, OK, it's a problem that he was white.

I should have spoken to more people during this, which is like rule number one.

Just shut your mouth after something like this happens, even if it's involving your son.

Don't go around talking to as many people as possible.
