  1. People need to group up and go to that man's job and put pressure on the company owner for answers everyday until he explains what was going on that day and record him. The police can't even be trusted so the DOJ definitely needs to step in

  2. JUSTICE FOR RASHEEM CARTER!! I hope his murderers SUFFER

  3. I am so disgustED! WE MUST GET TOGETHER AND STAY THAT WAY TO PROTECT US

  4. Vengeance is mine!!! Saith the Lord!
    These foul demons will reap what they have sown!!!

  5. OF course the racist are blaming whites, Most likely he was murdered by rival black gang members.

  6. An eye for an eye, those guys should be paid a little visit

  7. call the hotel ask to see the camera footage, if he was contracted to work ,who else was in that hotel,who else was contracted to work at the same place as him, was the hotel in his name or his boss name, check the boss call records

  8. I am glad he said something to his mom about the threats.

  9. I see Mr. Crump is getting more proficient in public speaking, less stuttering!

  10. As the bible says – "An Eye for An Eye". If the culprit(s) are found – will their heads/body, be decapitated? 🤔🙄

  11. It’s obvious pale faces did this.

  12. and why isn't THE F.B.I ON THIS CASE TODAY? PEOPLE THAT BODY OR REMAINS doesn't look correct,its only been 5 months.. it takes years for a body to decompose like pictured. unless it was put in some type of chemical. which in itself will be a big clue/giveaway

  13. Clearly black lives don’t matter, but if you say it then your a racist! We have to leave! Pray to the Most High for a way to leave. Just like when we left Egypt, he is gonna make a way!

  14. This is a cold blooded murder. Hours before his brutal killig, he BEGGED the Taylorsville PD for help and they REFUSED to protect and serve him. We need to find the killers AND hold the police accountable for their REFUSAL to help him.

  15. that is sad. but very odd. how is he just a skeleton in under a month? his body spead about seems like either a jussie smollet set up or an animal attack.

  16. Were there cameras around?

  17. Any photos of the person trying to use the card and just was the card used in trying to pay for things,

    the photo of the head maks one as was the top remove by medical personnel. or was this the way it was found as the cut across the the top is to clean for it to have been some kind of animal unless I am wrong?

    any data from tracking his phone. and match that data with any other phones pinging off the same cell location

    If that's the condition the way it was found hard to believe it was an animal attack

    belss all in pain at this time

  18. When they found his body, did he have a Subway Sandwich in one hand?

  19. You can't question the intelligence of the Mississippi police department. Because they lack any intelligence, obviously. Of course there is no reason to suspect foul play when a man's head is severed from his body. Because there definitely was foul play.

  20. Of course the racial ambulance chaser, Ben Crump, is representing the family. Why bother asking legitimate, thought-provoking questions when you can simply blame it on white people?

  21. Omg I'm so sorry mom I would never be no more good but I tell ya when are black people gonna learn they call that state the devil state for a reason, miss has so many innocent people's blood on their hands I wouldn't dare live in no part of miss, those kkk killed her baby. GOD this sad. And why hasn't sum of this magnitude not made national.

  22. I can’t wait for Jesus to come back enough is enough

  23. What are you doing get your guns and go find the boss he worked for , and find out who used his credit card and their is camera in police station

  24. Prayer warriors unite in prayer….
    Many prayers go out to young Mr Carter and his family. PRAYERS for God's vengeance upon everyone of those responsible for their heinous actions in the killing and dismemberment of an honest and hard working young man. The prayer is that each and every time those killing savage men look into their bathro9m mirrors, they will see horrific images of their souls. That everytime they speak that their voices be drowned out by the sounds of howling wolves, that only they can hear. And that the spirits of all men of Jackson Mississippi who were victims of torment and lynchings gather together as an army and dance, sing and march around the homes of those responsible for Mr Carter as well as the derelict Smith County Sheriff's department. May those same spirits march around the aforementioned 7 times every 6 days, until the guilty fall on each other and snitch out every involved perpetrator in their evil in the horrific killing of young Mr Carter. 35 1-9.
    Strength, justice and condolences to Mr. Carter's Mother, family and friends.
    p.a. every time this prayer is read, may it be Strengthened and brought to fruition, in our Father God's in Christ Jesus name. So it is, so it shall be. 91.

  25. The family should have paid a visit to the person named in that text.

  26. White Supremacists are the devil on earth.

  27. Of course white men were responsible for this. This is their type of crime, it’s in their nature!

  28. Wow, what a surprise. A young black male is brutally murdered in a southern sh!thole state, and the racist cops try to cover it up. I've never seen this one before 🙄

  29. Where’s the retaliation?

  30. 😩😩so sad praying for family

  31. No jail is good enough for the perpetrators. They and their entire family must be layed down

  32. And black people want yo stay here forever, no sir,no mam,there has to be better out in this world

  33. Wickedly devilish … Prepare
