He was the getaway car driver. Did he turn his friend in? Or did he shield him from law enforcement? Did he protect him at trial?

Is this the poet and rapper wannabe on his way to stardom?

neither, he was tried at the same time, in the same courtroom as the triggerman....he did not deserve the death penalty, but this case serves as a good lesson to my boys, be careful who you hang out or associate with ‘cuz in the end you will be found just as guilty merely by association.......

Foster acknowledged he and Brown and two friends were high on marijuana and alcohol and had robbed at least four other people in San Antonio that night when they followed LaHood and his girlfriend. Brown got out of the car, demanded car keys and a wallet from LaHood, then shot the man when LaHood didn’t immediately produce them.

Brown ran back to Foster’s car and they drove off. Less than an hour later, Foster was pulled over for speeding and driving erratically. Foster, Brown and two others in the car, Dwayne Dillard and Julius Steen — all on probation and members of a street gang — were arrested for LaHood’s slaying.

Brown and Foster wound up on death row. Dillard is serving life for killing a taxi driver across the street from the Alamo two weeks before LaHood’s slaying. Steen took a life sentence in a plea bargain.
