Good. I knew he didn’t do it. It simply doesn’t sound like him.
Thank you for clearing this up..!
I spoke to Rob less than an hour ago, and I know he will appreciate this..!
This was a complete misunderstanding by the sheriff department…
Wrong guy, in the wrong place, at the wrong time…
Thank God for security cameras..!
Awesome! Definitely didn’t sound like something he could do.
Woohoo!!
All credit for this info goes to this girl, Alexandra! YAY! I am very glad it’s over for Rob.
FYI I sent a message to The Signal, advising them that they need to update their story, also. It’s awful what happened to Rob. UGH!
I notced initially that several people spoke up for him…glad it got sorted out…I dont know him …but the original comments made…me worry for all of us how quickly our lives can turn on a dime…
Who done it then?!
GOD BLESS THESE SITUATIONS
Jessica House, it was members of the Vagos motorcycle gang…
They split right after the attack…
Vagos at the Vu ? Say it aint so, that bar is alway one step ahead of the law (payoffs) still work the the scv … That’s so old-school, biker villians in the 21th century, being bikers “colors colors colors” as iceT once said that is as lame as cop wearing a cape. policing vice in the scv is still as phucked up as when I lived in town you damn townies just can’t get a life. Half of you are on smack or pill that mimics smack you all drive drunk plus god forbid a brown person crosses the tracks and wants a drink at the vu. (Apartheid) much. That bar needs to shut down how many people have to go to the hospital before the ABC acknowledges the over pouring issues that have gone on for years.
Pin it on the Latino!! BS
“Good” people must ban together to defeat evil!
The process can work. Due process is everyone’s right.
Yay!! Glad they cleared it up here too-you have amazing friends to back you up when needed Rob!
Rob! We got your back buddy!
