On Friday, a stabbing over an alleged gambling $5 debt took place in a parking lot in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The accused, 51-year-old Anthony Lemar Mells (picture), stabbed a man he known for several years twice in the stomach and once in the head.

now you see why there is a forum rule #whatever that doesn't allow brm'ers ask for a loan... they are concerned that half of ~600K mobbits might stab one another... that's really bad business from their point of view.

...lol... That would be a blood-bath...!
Notice the guy claimed to have found the knife on the ground... HOW convenient...!
Claiming that, could mean the difference between a 'pre-meditated' act,...and one you just 'find' yourself in...!
I think buddy ultimately carries a knife to stab someone for whatever reason... so he should be guilty of a more serious offence...

This is another crazy story, how the guy can say that he just found the knife on the floor is unbelievable. I think that there must be more to this than just a five dollar debt.

Here you can see that even little money like 5 bucks can be enough to get killed. So everybody in here should clearly think about, if he is not owing someone some money even if its not much. You know what can happen to you!
I would pay five bucks to see this guy fight with somebody in a prison produced MMA gathering that is for sure. By the way these petty crimes not exclusive to the USA, where I live I saw way worse things happening over way less value so again, scums are everywhere to be found - even in good old Europe.
On second thought he must have said to his friend: it's not about the money, it's about the principles. Every crooked guy has principles - even though they are not up to anybody's ethical standards but they are still their principles. $5 worth of morality tales.
Everything is possible evreywhere as I mentioned previously here - you don't need to be livin' in the good old US of A to meet some truly questionable characters, I can tell some interesting tales who did what and when for around the same sum and ended up in a similar situation. Europe is not that much different you know.
There probably is not in the amount of debt. Maybe the debtor said the killer words for which he simply had to kill? Words hurt and kill more bullets and knives. I have a few debts ... I hope that I will not kill for them)) I am a very polite person, especially with some ...
You mean some people owe you money, right? Did I understand you right? Of course there is no reason to stab somebody over money if they are made up their mind over their debt that no amount of phisical threat gonna help you pay them on time. That just how the brain works.
