If this were the case wouldn't it be more likely that Miller would have immediately driven off after dropping off the gun? Not hanging around long enough for his car to get shot at?
The street looks hard to immediately drive away on. Miller said he didn’t know about the shooting, and that’s with his car being shot. Idk what the hell actually happened.
A lot will be answered. The DA doesn’t seem to think Miller should even be charged with anything.

I find it weird that nowhere does it seem to state where Miller actually was during the shooting. Did he just drive up, leave his car and run off? How would he not know about the shooting if there are supposedly bullet holes in his car?
I'm not claiming he's lying or anything but just seems like there are details missing that makes things not add up. That lack of clarity makes its easier for the media to get out into the open field with sensational accusations.
If I were the university (or Oats) and Miller is clearly innocent of any wrongdoing I'd want all of the information out in the open for everyone to see. The fact that it isn't seems odd to me.

Fair enough.
But it’s a pretty ridiculous article as well.

Miles and Davis are being charged with capital murder. Miller has not been charged with any crime, and an assistant district attorney told AL.com that “there’s nothing we could charge him with,” according to the law.
Perhaps there isn’t. Perhaps bringing someone else their gun moments before it becomes a murder weapon and perhaps having your car block the path of a vehicle just before that vehicle is riddled with bullets isn’t a crime in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

What did Miller reply with?
He replied with the prompt delivery of the murder weapon to the scene.

If he ran off after delivering a murder weapon how is he not charged with SOMETHING?
I have a feeling it’ll eventually be obvious why he wasn’t charged.

And of course Bama fans on the RNt are saying “the bitch deserved it”
That shouldn’t be a surprise. Ninety-nine point nine percent of the Alabama “fans” on the SEC Rant are pure trash. They’ve done their part to make that board a toxic dump.
Along those lines, it’s fitting Nate Oats is their coach. “Wrong spot at the wrong time” and “can’t control everything anybody does outside of practice” is the epitome of tone deafness. They’re your players so you’re accountable for their off-field trouble whether you like it or now. Speaks to the kind of guys you brought to the school.

It will be nearly IMPOSSIBLE for him to lie to the cops about his involvement and what he knew about the situation.
They have his communications with Miles.
They have video of the shooting(I think?).
They have Miller’s dash cam video and I’d assume audio(idk if it’s rare for them not to have audio).
Also, the DA has had this stuff for a long time and still says there is nothing to charge Miller with.
If he’s lying and was a part of this he can face a firing squad for all I care.
But nothing is screaming that he’s lying, imo.

Nate Oats, Alabama Offer Little in Wake of Murder Investigation
quote:
The more we hear about the capital murder case involving former Alabama men’s basketball player Darius Miles, the worse it gets for the Crimson Tide. The more coach Nate Oats speaks, the more dishonest and dismissive he sounds. The more information is made public, the more it’s clear that the school didn’t give a full accounting of a tragic situation.
quote:
Police testified that Miles’s teammate, freshman Brandon Miller—one of the five best players in college basketball—delivered the murder weapon to Miles at Miles’s request. Miles then told his friend, alleged trigger man Michael Davis, where the gun was located.
quote:
Oats took the exoneration of Miller several steps further, declaring that his involvement was nothing more than being in the “wrong spot at the wrong time.” That statement is an insult to everyone’s intelligence, if indeed Oats understood what had been said Tuesday in court. It’s a gross mischaracterization of a tragic situation that Miller materially helped escalate by allegedly delivering the murder weapon to the scene of the crime.

Miller also informed police that he never saw anyone with a gun or saw the shooting that left Harris dead.
This was in the article you linked.

Bammers defending their own and rivals not agreeing, news at 11. Yes, some fans would sacrifice their loved ones if it meant a natty, because it makes them feel like they accomplished something. This is not just Alabama fans; Ohio State fans do the same thing, so do Gators, Dawgs, Vols, Tigers, etc

Wouldn't he be an accessory?
Accessory? He’s a full fledged accomplice in the murder. An accessory does something indirect and peripheral to the actual crime, such as hiding the gun afterwards.
An accomplice brings the gun to the scene of the crime, and prevents the victim escaping when things start escalating.

What do we expect Miller is going to say? Lol. Criminals lie all the time.
Are we expecting Miller to just start off the investigation with ‘I brought the gun and blocked them in so my friend could murder them?”
Come on. Of course ghe is playing ignorant here, ignorant until proven otherwise.
I’ve never been in a vehicle that’s been shot but I’ve shot metal objects including cars before and that shits usually loud. I can’t imagine not knowing.

he just brought a gun back to its owner, then no.

Or he could have been like, “Yo, I’ve got it I’m in my way. Make sure to use it in a murder right away. And if you’re too scared, give it to your homie so he can shoot that bitch.”
And this guy calls the LSU burrow fans cringe…
