Turon M. Savoy Sr a 46-year-old father has been arrested after he stabbed two football players trying to stop his son from beating up their football coach. https://www.nfldraftdiamonds.com/2020/10/stabbing/Last night, I received a call I dread; the report of a knife attack on the property of one of our local schools.

A local private school was holding evening football practice on one of our CCPS fields. During the practice, a coach decided to reprimand a 17-year-old player. The player made the decision to physically assault the coach. Two fellow players, a 17 and 18-year-old, made the courageous...
Turan. Is that a real name?

Like pit bulls. Some cannot control themselves. He needs to be in a cage.
.................for stabbing two of his son’s young team mates in the face I would, if I were wearing the robes, sentence this man to life in prison with no chance of parole.
