The 72 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: victim said the argument started because someone left peanut, butter 73 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: and jelly on the counter, and as the confrontation escalated, 74 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: Owens allegedly pulled out the butter knife, and the victim 75 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: retaliated by throwing punches.

Because peanut butter and jelly 89 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 2: it don't make people act like this. Peanut butter and 90 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: jelly is a time machine that does nothing but bring 91 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 2: you back to an existence when life was simple. One 92 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 2: bite and you're instantly transported back in time. It's like 93 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: having The Adventures Time Travel bracelet. You get taken back 94 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 2: to your childhood. You and your mama, a grandma kitchen, 95 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: humming the theme song to Martin. You just care free, 96 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 2: not a worry in the world, and then here comes 97 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 2: someone disturbing your goddamn peace. 98 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: You can go from glimmer to trigger and left an zero. 99 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: Point four seconds, all because someone left peanut butter and 100 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 2: jelly on the counter and didn't clean it up. 101 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: Now, I'm not a lawyer, okay. 102 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 2: If it's one thing that Diddy Cass showed us all 103 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: this week is that none of none of us know 104 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: the law. But this is a clear case of self defense. 105 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 2: My client had a butter knife. Why did he a 106 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: butter knife? 107 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: Duh? 108 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 2: It's a jar skippy on the counter of your honor 109 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 2: and smucker strawberry squeeze with some wonder bread. Clearly, I'm 110 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: about to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And 111 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 2: then this mad man, who probably can't appreciate peeb and 112 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 2: j and thinks ham and cheese is top tier, starts 113 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: swinging punches at me. So I did what any self 114 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 2: respecting lover of peanut, butter and jelly would do, and 115 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 2: that's cut him with my butter knife. Now, now that's 116 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: what I would say, And that's probably why he wouldn't 117 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 2: get a bond, because the reality is, peanut butter and 118 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 2: jelly sandwich is a classic, one of the greatest, if 119 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 2: not the greatest, comfort foods of all time. But there's 120 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: a long list of things that should never lead to violence, 121 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 2: and near the top of that list as you guessed it, 122 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: the peanut butter and jelly sandwich. You can't catch an 123 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: attempted murder charge over no damn peanut butter and jelly sandwich. 124 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: That's just trivial. 125 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 2: I don't even know what type of peanut butter it was, crunchy, smooth, 126 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: name brand generic, same with jelly. But you don't want 127 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: to go to prison for life for a spread, because 128 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: in prison you can become a spread. Yes, I'm talking 129 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: about your ass cheeks.

Now now you 132 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 2: got a nickname like Skippy Squeeze our jift jam, and 133 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 2: now people spreading your ass cheeks all over the prison. Listen, 134 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: we have to learn better conflict resolution skills. We have 135 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: to learn how to communicate without violence. These two brothers 136 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 2: weren't fighting over no dan peanut butter and jelly sandwich. 137 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 2: Clearly there's some unresolved trauma there and Javon has a 138 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: history of violence, so stabbing him with the butter knife 139 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,559 Speaker 2: was the effect, not the cost. 140 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: And we will never get. 141 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: To the cast because all they gonna do is attempt 142 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: to send this young man to prison. And I'm not 143 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 2: saying he shouldn't be held There should be consequences for 144 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 2: his actions. He should be held accountable for his actions, 145 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 2: but going to prison, it will devilegate him the proper 146 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: mental health care he needs to see exactly what is 147 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: troubling this young man.
