Why Tay-K Got 55 Years For 'The Race'

In Tarrant County, a teenager was convicted of murder this morning for his role in a deadly home invasion robbery. Tamer McIntyre, 19, called Take a 47 in his online rap videos, was convicted for his role in the shooting death of a 21-year-old man. Ethan Walker in 2016 began his rap career as a teenager as part of the Daytona Boyd's crew with his childhood friends Pimps and Santana Sage, but the Santana boys began chasing that bag of rap games throughout 2014. and 15 releasing his drift song that featured Take Hayes. from the first verse, so it's very 1wb slime, right? And from there, in 2015, he released his first solo song, Back to the Future, inspired by Biff as Danone and continued with songs as Cooper and while the Daytona boys continued to promote his music. and trying to generate buzz, they began playing in the Arlington area of ​​Texas, however, after a Daytona Boys show on New Year's Eve 2016, they would be implicated in their first murder case that would make the Daytona Boys Boys will break up after acting in this one.

At the New Year's party the Daytona boys left the show in a car along with two other unidentified people and while at a red light the Daytona boys saw another car with four people inside who had also been at the same party, two men and two women with the car being driven by Sarah, a 20-year-old college student, just like now, the Daytona boys rolled down the window and started yelling sexual innuendos and the women in that car, well, apparently those lovely attempts at seduction were diverted by the inhabitants of that car and one of the men.

The passengers of that vehicle rolled down the window and told the Daytona boys that it would hit them. At that moment, the driver of that car, Santana Sage, of the Daytona Boys, pulled out a gun and fired two shots, one bullet hitting Sarah in the head, killing her and causing her car to go off the road, investigators say. that the suspect in the murder of a UNT college student was arrested while on his way to work at the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Arizona. Eric Johnson is charged with murder in the death of 20-year-old Sarah.

As luck would have it, he was shot in the head during a drive-by shooting after a New Year's Eve party. In debt, within days, Santana represented the real name of Erik Johnson, was arrested for murder and both took a and the pimps were identified as having been in the car, but they were not. Not implicated in the murder because they were minors, police say they have now identified the four other people who were in this 2007 Honda Pilot New Year's morning when UNT student Sara Much Luckner was shot in head after a verbal altercation on the highway between The people in his car and those with Johnson for now, the others with him do not face charges, things were not looking good for the Santana stage because even before the trial began , a damning DM had leaked from one of her friends, essentially admitting that Santana had done this. saying that Sara was in the wrong place at the wrong time and that Santana was already fired up from punching someone earlier that night.

Shout out to the college guy on YouTube for the excellent reporting on this case. By the way, Santana Sage was finally convicted later. Pleading innocent and presenting a pretty bad version of events, he admitted to shooting at that car, but said he was just trying to scare them after they called him a homophobic slur saying he didn't really mean to kill anyone. Johnson testified that a question from his SUV where the next party was was met with gay and racial slurs as someone yelled: How do you like being shot? Johnson testified that he showed his gun admitted that he fired two shots, but that he was too scared to shoot over the car, not killing anyone much like they did Nur, he was shot in the head and the car crashed into a pole Defense attorneys argued that Johnson's actions deserved a verdict of manslaughter, but the jury disagreed, the jury didn't buy it, and he ended up getting 44

years

early.

years

, that's the sentence handed down today to a Marine who was convicted of killing a UNT student, so let's stop for a second look.

Pimps are only about 15 16, they already saw one of their best friends gun down an innocent woman. in a drive-by shooting without any personal consequences for them, it is no surprise that they get into a lot of trouble from this, so it is this situation that sets the stage for a caper that would leave Take a and six other people who had literally hundreds of years of their young lives missing and a man killed on July 26, 2016 take a and six other people had conspired to rob a man named Zachary of the drugs and money he was in.

The robbery was expected to take place. a house in the 1500 block on Aspen Court of Mansfield Texas and it was supposedly a trap house and the police have records of several drug related incidents that occurred at this address and this entire plan was masterminded by an anonymous girl who was only 16 years old. She was supposedly dating Zachary Balot and staying on the property with him now the plan was that she would invite two other women to the house under the pretext of smoking marijuana with Zachary downstairs and seducing him now. I've been with a few women in my time, but that takes the cake and supposedly this wasn't even the first time she tried to set him up.

The story goes that they had actually invited girls there to slyly steal from below before, but they didn't succeed and they had even planned to do a lick in this house that same day, but they canceled it because there were too many people in the crib, but later That night those three girls were there again and the robbery was still going on. At some point during the night, all those girls started acting a little strange, pacing around the house and constantly leaving the room to look for water. These thoughts are the wrong kind of thirst and the story goes that they were all in a group chat with Take Hay and his boys and at some point they used the phrase hit, lick and voila, the girls opened the door and allowed the men to steal the set.

That entire team included the two remaining Daytona boys, they took a pimp along with two older men, Lothario and Merritt and Shaun Robinson Sorry, but there are so many people involved in this job that they probably would have gotten an 89 cent split if they really did it. they would have achieved. If you ask me, you should have stuck to stealing shoelaces. Anyway, the team was having trouble finding the aforementioned stash and proceeded to attack Zachary downstairs and his roommate Ethan Walker, who was simply playing video games with his girlfriend at gunpoint before people yelled "va and he's getting married tomorrow." about a cow shot and where is the work that surprised me.

I mean, that couch must have been a lightweight futon because this kid doesn't have the bone density to move counters at his age. To be fair, I heard he's been stirring up tensions in prison. Rose and the caches remain stolen. A confrontation ensued between Lotharian Merritt and Shaun Robinson and Zachary Belote and Ethan Walker and apparently Shaun Robinson, who was holding Zachary down at gunpoint, put both hands on the gun and fired after being told there was no money. I left the room and then a guy was in the front of my room at the door and I was right in front of the bed.

I had him practically at point blank range and he sat there and hesitated for about two minutes with one hand and waited with two hands to find out who was going to pull the trigger a shot started ringing non-therian Merritt shot an unarmed Ethan Walker in his front room his girlfriend first when the shooting started the rest of the robbery group fled the apartment Ethan Walker's gunshot wound would be fatal and the police reported one wounded and one dead now it didn't take the police long to put this case together and take a and his many co-defendants were charged with capital murder and placed under house arrest and it turns out that they were trying seven people for murder is actually a pretty complicated process, especially considering the fact that several of the people involved were minors. 18 years old, the murder occurred in July 2016 and he had been sitting under house arrest for eight months when it finally broke out on March 27, 2017.

He famously tweeted his house arrest: they'll have to catch me on foot, showing blatant disregard for the law and the basic rules of grammar. He duly cut off his ankle monitor and fled to San Antonio, where it seems he actually did some. a bit of extracurricular murder there - for the record, both that alleged murder and another case of beating a man unconscious in a park are currently unsolved, so I'm not going to go into them, but I know they don't look good , but from there he traveled to Elizabeth, New Jersey, where he would hide out with friends and record music and it was here that he recorded the song and music video for the

race

and, in the lead-up to the release of the

race

, a story I was picking up.

Steam laid the foundation for his viral success that would later occur, on June 26, US Marshals released an image and description suggesting that Kate was in the Fort Worth area of ​​Texas. She must have had an idea that the bailiffs were really approaching. because less than a week later, on June 30, he was captured without incident. Breaking news to share with the new ones who just found out. Tamar McIntyre, 17, has been arrested in New Jersey by the US Marshal Service and it was that same day that she was arrested. She captured him announcing the launch of her career by posting the video of her on Twitter, it was all incredibly orchestrated.

I mean posting the video on Twitter on the exact day he was arrested with the caption feds can't arrest me here, interestingly, the U.S. Marshals said Take A's arrests were based on tips coming in from all over the country, as well as in a local surveillance operation, and it is quite possible that as the legend around him and his music grew, so would the likelihood that he would be discovered by a member of the public and handcuffed by the police and, as he was being taken to jail the race was going incredibly viral now the music video for the race was downright shameless by showing him rapping in front of his own god.

Damn wanted poster: It had him carrying Glocks and rapping in the hideout while his stupid friends threw Gray Goose on the ground behind him, as well as plenty of shots of him doing his awesome gang signs to be fair if the opps don't find him, the arthritis will do it. Considering its crazy backstory and infectious hook, it's no surprise that the track ended up becoming an instant hit, debuting at number 70 on Billboard and then peaking at number 44. The track was eventually certified platinum and was remixed and shouted out by some heavy hitters in the game including Tiger Fetty WAP, little Yowie and everyone's favorite British rapper 21 Savage Childish Gambino even came out to say he loved taking a and even Travis Scott was tweeting the lyrics and from there both social networks and fake news media. continued to gobble him up his capture has almost increased his popularity on social media Twitter posts from fans now include the hashtag free take there are t-shirts on sale for $35 to $45 with the same slogan now after his arrest and to get out of the career -until his test, the taking exhibited some pretty strange behavior, he tried unsuccessfully to get out of jail by saying he had taken a lot of pills and was hearing voices that you're not the only one taking, oh I have to do it.

Further investigation after a psychological evaluation showed there was nothing wrong with him, he changed tactics and then attempted to organize himself so he could capitalize on his newfound success by hiring Kodak's black entertainment lawyer, James McMillan, to handle discussions with record labels and music publishers in an attempt to secure that purse in order to pay their legal fees. McMillan said he has this terrible situation behind him, but this opportunity, on the other hand, I was assigned was to try to make sure that we maximize his opportunities so that he can mount the strongest possible criminal defense, loosely translated, yes, he faces to a murder charge, it probably won't be, but there's a chance to give it one last lick, baby.

Hey, we've all heard of ambulance chasers, but this guy has to be the first bamboo. Chaser in the game and to be fair there was a lot to take advantage of on the first take. Hayes' debut mixtape, Santana World, was released on July 18. I guess it was called Santana World to honor his friend Santana Sage who shot that innocent girl in the head.Great, I'm sure no serious person in the recording industry would support that right, but to be fair, as a project, it was a decent release and, in my opinion, the songs I love My Helicopter and Murder She Wrote were works of art really convincing.

After that, by December he was signing a deal with the Eighty-Eight Classics record label, a small independent label run by Senior Vice President of A&R or RCA Records, J Graham. It's interesting because it seems like a lot of effort was made to make it very clear that Take A was not affiliated or signed to RCA Records, you know, because of all the murders, it's not good optics for Sony-owned RCA Records to profit. so directly from a horrible crime, but apparently J Ground is happy to watch it. here smiling like a man who doesn't really care who has to die for him to get a hit record.

J Grant really seems to have mastered the dark art of the macabre ANR. In fact, I've heard that he doesn't find his new artist by searching on social media. or going to local independent hip hop shows, but simply driving through dangerous areas listening to a police scanner wanting to put an unfavorable record deal in the hands of any young gang member with a recent record after being in jail for several weeks, The hearing lasted and the judge announced that he would be tried as an adult and whose real name is Tamar McIntyre appeared in a Tehran County courtroom on Wednesday.

We are dressed in red overalls. The judge officially certified a controversial seventeen-year-old rapper to stand trial as an adult in the capital murder case, his attorney released a statement confirming this, suggesting that he was optimistic about the process and initially his attorney was confident and emphasized that there was no evidence that Take Hay had possessed weapons during the home invasion and after the hearing, officers confirmed this. in sworn testimony, he was confident that a K would be exonerated, obviously the judge denied him bail and chose not to take a free and admonish any member of the public who had been hanging around the free hashtag and while in jail had been It was rumored that Take Hay could even face the death penalty, but his manager, Ezra Averill, denied it on Instagram, but the problems did not end because, while hey, hey, he waited, it seemed like he couldn't even stay out of trouble while I was at the prision.

Before long, he was in jail. The lucky young Adebisi apparently in July punched another inmate and hit his head against the wall. Heck, even setting off firecrackers behind bars, he had been accused of selling drugs and even smoking marijuana, deadly in prison. Jesus can. Can you imagine the paranoia that most people I know are too afraid to even use threesomes when high let alone defend themselves, but the bandits in jail and then to make matters worse were even caught with a cell phone during a search and after they found him, he tried to throw him in the bathroom and got into a fight with a guard and apparently he was even threatening the guards telling one that if I see you on the street you better run.

I know it sounds a little scary, but to be fair, God has 55 years to get his stamina back anyway, these antics apparently got him moved from the Tarrant County Jail to the maximum security Lon Evans Correctional Facility, where he spent some time in solitary confinement, but he clearly didn't learn his lesson or his management literally cares about nothing but profiting from his terrible crimes because a month later he managed to tweet a picture of himself sitting in his cell. Damn, how did he get those invisible weapons there? I honestly can't believe we have people building careers. as influences behind bars now, I swear, if we had Instagram in the 70s, Ted Bundy would have been making prank videos of himself, then a photo emerged of a person in a suicide vest, although his management downplayed this, suggesting this was Just something.

What he did to get out of solitary confinement is a good excuse, but I think a lot of people saw this for what it really was, the hellish reality of a troubled young man who was at his lowest point in a terrible situation that he was not prepared to deal with. with that, but he must have had a new lease on life because in March 2019 it was reported that he was trying to start his own prison gang, which was called you, no Rugrats prosecutors had said they had even found a list. of rules that hey had written for the gang people to comply with the walls behind bars don't snitch don't steal from Rugrats don't disobey high ranking members what is this stun cars don't harm children unless necessary Oh boss, you wanted to harm children for fun? this is not the game for me love respect protect and appreciate your mates rugrats gamble in jail about loving and cherishing it gets a little but sexy apparently there's a rating system and custom gang signs we know how good he is at that sounds like a lot these rules and conditions really benefit, I bet you get bonus points if you are also a rapper, the gang ranking system included sergeants, lieutenants, generals, troops and the most prestigious rank of all the pickles, honestly this whole setup is so elaborate that I don't know if I should be condemned for being evil or praised for being so enterprising.

Okay, maybe in 10 years, he will be hosting the prison apprentice for today's challenge. Both will be divided into two teams and whoever can take the best turn will stay on the bottom bunk. Look, at this point it is clear that prison is not enough to deter a person from committing crimes. I would personally propose a super prison within a prison. It is very popular in Russia. Radley On February 23, 2018, one of the accomplices was described as simply being quite petite. A blonde who was only 16 at the time of the robbery and 17 at the time of sentencing faced a judge, apparently she had actually tried to play the victim in court saying that she was forced to participate in the robbery under duress and who had been the victim. of human trafficking, but the judge was a minor and she was found guilty of capital murder and aggravated robbery and properly sentenced to 20 years in prison and she was supposedly Wilin outside and screaming in court when being a setup goes wrong, another accomplice , Meghan Holt.

He pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated robbery, avoiding the more serious charge of capital murder with any possibility of the death penalty, and agreed to testify against essentially all of his Cody's, which convinced the judge to reduce that 4-year sentence to 20. In May 2018, Lothario Merritt, the man who shot and killed Ethan Walker, had his day in court and suggested he did not remember pulling the trigger. He had two years to present a defense and that is at least the best he could do. Kelly tried the hairy defense and said it wasn't me who pleaded not guilty.

He went to trial and was found guilty of full-blown capital murder. He was given a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole and that's the right life. She won't be making any comeback albums even if she lives to be one hundred, then in August 2018, Ariana Burrell also pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery and agreed to testify against her Kony for a 25-year sentence and that same month Shaun Robinson The guy who shot Zachary downstairs and didn't die was convicted of murder and ended up getting 40 years in prison. It was actually a pretty good outcome for him considering the fact that it allowed him to avoid the more serious charge of capital murder, but he could have gotten it. the death penalty or life in prison without the possibility of parole in November 2018 Jalen Bell aka pimps or pimps easy pimp it doesn't matter it's irrelevant he received 30 years after pleading guilty to aggravated robbery this occurred after he tone down an author to expose him. for a reduced 20 year sentence which he duly turned down an extra 10 years for eating good noodles I guess so hey he was the last person to stand trial.

The ride began on July 16, 2019, rejected a plea deal and opted for a pleaded not guilty pleaded guilty to two counts of robbery aggravated by threats and not guilty to capital murder bring that charge to trial this in retrospect was a strategy quite unusual and bad because being guilty of any of these crimes and admitting that he was there for Rob implicates him quite a bit in the murder that took place in his presence. Hayes' attorney attempted to argue that he did not fire the fatal bullet and that his job in the robbery was just to be there to find drugs to steal, making it very clear that he was supposedly unarmed and had no idea people would be shot, the girls planned this, they sent her in and the boys were supposed to come in, grab their bodies and take K away, he had a bag, he was going to get the money and the drugs. from under the couch, confronting back, well, that's not good at all, with something tragically wrong there because they have to prove that, beyond a reasonable doubt, he should have known that intentional murder would happen.

Tamar he never touched the loaded handle, cleaned and carried a firearm before this. incident that day during the incident they are after the incident that day yeah I'm not sure if you ever saw this guy take his Instagram and they also put a nice pair of glasses on him like that would help Your Honor this little guy Nerd clearly doesn't want any action, but the prosecution responded by saying that he clearly knew what he was getting into considering the fact that he even asked if he could have his own gun before the robbery occurred, today is worth a loyalty to you saying Hey, I'm guilty of using something.

They were going to threaten me, but I don't want to be guilty of a crime. I didn't anticipate. You don't know how he knew what was going to happen that night and what happened. The risks were to his conspiracy because he wanted his own gun and he asked Mariah Quadri: Can I borrow a gun from here? You want me to send my rocket. He asks to borrow a gun and they even tried to prove his guilt by showing his post-arrest interview where he cried in court. This video from nearly three years ago shows 16-year-old Timur McIntyre in a small room with police, sometimes awkwardly wiping his eyes and finally admitting to investigators that he played a role in a home invasion and murder in Mansfield .

Look, take a look. He was eventually convicted of the murder of Ethan Walker, as well as the guilty pleas to Zachary's aggravated robbery that followed. Now the reason he was not found guilty of capital murder is because, under Texas law, it is when the defendant intentionally commits the murder in the course of committing the aggravated robbery that he is guilty of the murder because he was there with the intention to rob, which turned into a murder in which he participated, but he is not guilty of capital murder because he did not go there with the The intention of now prosecutors played the video of the race in court, but not as part of the trial, only for the jurors to consider it as part of the sentence, so it is not surprising that they ended up giving him a hefty 55 year sentence for the murder, as well as 30 years for one of the aggravated robbery charges and another sentence of two years of 13 years for other robbery charges because he was a minor when these crimes were committed.

He was allowed to serve these sentences concurrently and he will be eligible for parole in no less than twenty years. seven and a half years old, you know what that means baby, new, release an album in the summer of 2046. I'm going to listen to that one on my Tesla cybercopter, but actually, even though this is all sad, I mean, I was only 16 when this. fell, went from playing Spider-Man to sharing a cell with a man named Spider after the conviction, a question mark loomed over whether Take Hey would get to keep some of the money he won in the race.

They sued him in a civil suit. valued at over a million dollars by Ethan Walker's family for profiting from the murder and apparently the record deal he signed while locked up with an ea Classic was worth over six hundred thousand dollars with that in mind who knows how much J.A Starting from a custom-made outtake, the lawsuit actually suggested that the record label encouraged Take to commit crimes to raise his profile and even suggested that the reason he rushed to New Jersey in particular was to be close to the record label. Now you don't understand me. bad, I enjoyed the race and other songs.

I don't think anyone's art should be destroyed or suppressed because of the things they've done, however, I do think a lot of people benefited from and encouraged some pretty reprehensible behavior in this particular case. Now I'm the last person who will let your hip hop glorify violence or people who live the gangster lifestyle they portray in their songs. We all enjoyed the race because it was a good song with a crazy story written by a teenage murderer, but thatIt should never distract you from the human cost of a story like this after the verdict. Ethan Walker's father made a heartfelt appeal to the courtroom saying there are three people.

I hate the planner, the person who pulled the trigger and the person who profited from this like every step in his career takes a free t-shirt that was sold has my son's blood Ethan Walker had a three year old daughter and her mother who He adopted him when he was only seven, he said, looking at the sweet face of E of the three Walkers. -years to tell her about the bad people that made her dad go to heaven, she said that every time they looked up her son's case and saw a song taken, they literally saw him dancing on Ethan's grave and I agree, but listeners don't blame me, but let's keep it at 100.

Anyone who directly participated in profiting from the run after Take Hay released it independently has blood on their hands. J Grant should be ashamed and RCA should be ashamed. Sure, one case captured the imagination of the hip-hop community but we don't want another take, there were already too many and I personally feel bad for taking one not because he was sentenced to fifty-five years in prison but because he was a misguided young man trapped in a dangerous life. It ultimately ended before it had a chance to begin and seeing the dramatic moment the pimps were sentenced was a good metaphor for this whole situation.

He started out smiling and twirling around the courtroom and then the reality dawned on him that he would spend 30 years in jail followed by an emotional reprimand from Walker's mother, but he left the pimps' mother who was staring in the face. courtroom bursting into tears and leaving the room. I'm not going to yell at the television. I'm not going to encourage you. study, no one wins, so if you've reached this point in the video, I just want you to remember that the most important thing about this story is not taking one, it's not the rest, the people who really shouldn't be forgotten. other victims and their families because regardless of how responsible they are or all the people involved in these horrible crimes because what the victims' families went through was a thousand times worse because of race and everyone who saw it and I hope that and the people who suffered much worse because of this song are remembered thank you for looking at a little beard who has seen her graduated they have robbed her of being a grandmother they have robbed her thank God we believe in Jesus yes, one day we will see her again soon when we leave this earth to you
