Too many people in today's society choose to make judgements too soon with too little information.I am pretty sure that everyone who posted remarks about the story of Ricky Camat has peas as brains because they prejudge on facts they dont know. People are too quick to believe the worst in people, they cant comprehend that there are always three sides to every incident or story: in this case the family and friend's side, the police side and the truth. Well the truth will come out and it will side with the family/friends side. Let me tell you a story of man that loved life and was not a thug nor stupid.People may say that he must have spent all of his winnings; will this is wrong.He was very smart and a entrepreneur investing in real estate, stocks, bonds and plans of pursuing other business ventures. That night he was protecting his friends and family, he was not aware that there were cops to help them. There was a large group of maybe 15-20 men ready to fight his friends. He only did what was necessary to scare and disperse those men so he shot one in the air. Moments later without any warning or words cops shot him in the back. In those very seconds no one was able to help him not his friends nor family, the cops didnt even go over to him to help. They just stood around. All in all, the truth will come out and people like those of you that make stupid remarks and judgements should really look themselves in the mirror and see who is the stupid and prejudice one. People dont realize the things they write and say affect people, not just the family and friends of the person you are writing these remarks about but the people around like your wife, husband and especially your children because they are the ones that will think exactly like you. This will decrease the intelligence in society so I feel sorry for your offsprings and in society in general because of all of YOU.
Wow. Well done. You must understand that sometimes, on any forum, a 'pack mentality' arises.
I have been a onlooker to public assumptions and the media blood lust. It is not a pretty sight. Thanks for reminding me that there are the "news" stories, then there is the real story.

Owl_Eagle, didn't Ricky leave you quite a tidy sum? I hope you didn't spend it all in one place!
Then again.. peas as brains? Seattle? I could think of better cities to live in with that kind of money. Good bye hippies!
