I think they mixed up the murderer and the victim =>

“PANAMA CITY, Fla. - A jury found Orlando Thompson, 27, guilty of second degree murder for the death of Josh Halley, 33,.”

This was a black on white murder.

Gumbo spices are worth killing for, worth dying for, worth going to Hell for.

Don’t f*** with the gumbo.

The correct answer to ‘how much seasoning should you put in gumbo’ is “MORE”.

Chicken nuggets, chicken wings, BBQ chicken, and now gumbo. Deadly foods in diverse neighborhoods.
