Man Who Shaun King Falsely Accused Of Murdering Black Girl Is Dead From Apparent Suicide

dc-

A Houston-area man who social media activist Shaun King falsely accused of murdering a 7-year-old black girl late in 2018 has died from an apparent suicide after hanging himself in his jail cell earlier in July.

Houston’s ABC and Fox stations reported that Robert Cantrell, 49, was found dead July 23. Cantrell had been in jail in Montgomery County, just outside of Houston, since Dec. 30, 2018, on evasion and robbery charges.

King posted Cantrell’s mugshot on Twitter in January, asking his followers for more information on Cantrell, who is white. He also said Cantrell was “a racist, violent asshole.”

“What more can you tell me about Robert Cantrell?” King wrote.

“He was arrested in Houston hours after Jazmine was murdered on another violent crime spree. We’ve had 20 people call or email us and say he is a racist, violent asshole and always has been. Just tell me everything you know.”

It turned out that King was wrong not just on the identity of Barnes’s killers, but also their race. Eric Black and Larry Woodruffe were arrested Jan. 6. Both men are black. They face capital murder charges.

King has deleted his post accusing Cantrell of murder. There is also evidence that he and Gonzalez had received a tip that Black was involved in the shooting a day before King posted Cantrell’s mugshot.

  1. What can you say about an asshole so disturbed that he thinks he’s a black activist. Shouldn’t he be in some institution under heavy psychotropic medication?

    He’s not even right about his own race, much less someone else’s.

  3. One day Snowman is going to piss of a black person who is not amused and hopefully he gets murdered violently.

    I would rather he end up desolate like Rachel for the violence they promote against people based solely on race.

  4. The only reason we hear about this imbecile at all is because the left finds him a useful idiot.
    He’s like the crackpot in the nut house that thinks he’s Napoleon.

  5. Hang him with string
    Start with one kite string. Every time you kick a chair out from under him and the string breaks, stand him up and add one more string than the last time, and do it again.
    I figure around twenty times should do it

  6. Like to see him and DeRay hanged
    for the massive harm they have caused.
    I am embarrassed to have commie turds
    like this in my country.
