Yes it is sad all the way around...for all involved, especially Tim's family. His family knowing what he was involved in is not an assumption. I believe there is evidence supporting a sister telling him to get whatever it is the police wanted out of the house. As well the information where MS claims his mother's rights were violated indicates she was asked to comply with a request by police and appears to have somewhat refused...we can only go by the info available and it tells me that while they are innocent of any crime committed it appears they were somewhat in the know about his activities. Quite different than a family member who is not in the know who would be blindsided with the police showing up. But hey...we all have right to our opinions.
Do I think they knew about the murder and supported him? Is that that you are asking me? Hmmm...I would say they knew something was up because the police had bern to the house looking for him and DM had already been arrested if I am not mistaken, but I doubt they had confirmation of his actual involvement. Do I think they knew he dealt drugs, absolutely...take my word for it, if someone is dealing from your house, and you are observant especially if your child, you know. I am sure his mother was not aware they were going to raid the house, they generally don't call first in those instances. Whether dropped in her lap or in the know, the police were within their rights to do what they needed to do to execute the search warrant, not knowing who or what was in the house. As someone said as well MS was not under surveillance 24/7 or he wouldn't have been able to create his fable about riding into the dark to bury the gun...lol. I think that 'dirty girl' ended up back in the hands of MWJ or one of his buds, but that is an assumption on my part. Sadly sometimes good people get caught in ugly situations and sometimes good parents overlook signs their children are off course or know they are but feel powerless to put a stop to it.
If anyone violated his mother's right to peace, happiness and no conflict with the law...it was MS, IMHO.I feel empathetic to both family's...the victim and the convicted. Ok, probably way more sypathetic to the victim's side because of tge finality of their loss.
