A year ago this week...

I lost a friend to some senseless violence.

A bastard serial killer that was smoking people all over the city. Robbing and killing people. This SOB robbed a homeless man and then killed him as well.

I would say be safe and hold your friends close, but I think what it is we really need to do is live our best lives.

I cannot believe it has been a year... And to think I was in a bad mood last time I saw him out and I barely talked to anyone and just left without saying goodbye to everyone. Have fun in the moment...I could have stayed and whooped it up a little more with him. I can't believe...he was just a regular guy that loved Star Wars and Hip Hop...

You never think that a damn serial killer will somehow enter your sphere of life. Miss you Knotty..




Here's the story...about the bastard that took his life.

What's the death penalty gonna do though? It won't bring our friend Timothy "Knotty" Barnwell back...

Thanks Naked.. hug

This ass followed him home from the bank, knocked on his door, invaded his apartment, beat him up, tied him up, and as Knotty tried to escape he shot and killed him. You just never think...you aren't supposed to.

thanks again hug

sad as it is you have to watch your back at all times. I hate these fuckers that have to kill. Can't you just rob people and let them live? I believe in the death penalty for this kind of shit so hard. Robbing people family and friends of good folks, they should have their lives stolen too.....

damn.

my GOD, thats horrible...
try not to let your mind focus on the last bit of his life though... it will make you crazy inside. instead, focus and celebrate the LIFE and the good times with him rose
think of it this way, he shared so much with you, he wouldnt want to be remembered for the way he exited this earth hug

That city and that time of my life was when I cut my teeth and came of age. All of those fellas felt like family. You are right, there a lot of wonderful thoughts of him and that time.

Always make sure there is no one following you anywhere you go. Seriously

Thank you all. You are right Mach...bad things happen to good people. I'm just glad they found the sorry piece of shit that did it. The police had no clue..until he robbed a Dominos and found that his gun was a match to five killings and a home invasion in the city over the past 2 years...which is scary in iteself.

F^&king police thought he was running big time drugs and kept on harrasing his girlfriend and friends...they seriously thought it was an inside job. They thought he was in some big time drug circle just because of the way he was killed.

But...one psychopath killer is off the street and Knotty is watching all the Star Wars he can in heaven.

Thanks guys.. hug
