From the State…”The preliminary investigation indicates the shooting wasn’t a random act of violence, as the shooter and the male victim appear to have known each other, Charlotte police said.”
It makes you wonder. Could it have been a drug deal, especially given the rumors of Hizonner’s appreciation for white powdery substances, as well as similar appreciations attributed to his former police chief?
I’d rather be put in a body bag with ice until I’m dead… no wait! I’d rather be hung by my wrists and my legs beaten with a baton until a blood clot… no.. no wait! drowned by degrees… beaten unconscious and revived with meth.. yeah.. that’s what I’d rather… but if I can’t get that, I’d rather slide down a mile-long razor blade…
Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Why is the Mayor of Columbia on the fringe of so many criminal investigations? His car accident the night after he was elected, his rumored involvement with SC State University, the real estate partnership currently under investigation and now his brother-in-law is shot and killed? Even his wife’s election to the Circuit Court was not without incident. Wake up Richland County and City of Columbia residents!
Shooter has a nice past including drug dealing. Mr. Gist father has a past history for physical abuse in a parking lot. Obit only list family. I guess other then the family he never did anything but get him self murdered?

Just curious. How do they know that he did not know his attacker? Why so eager to point that out so early in the investigation?
Especially since every news source other than the one noted reports they did.
the shooter probably said “I didn’t shoot that guy – I’ve never seen him before in my life!”

Yes, everything I read said he knew his attacker and it was not random.

Or could it be he was a victim of one of these?

Sounds like a black legal issue or perhaps, some other collateral issue, perhaps math, circular in form…definitively, not good though, sadness.

The article also did not state who the attacker was and whether he was apprehended. Great reporting.
I hope the anti-gun nuts don’t notice a gun was involved.
Would you rather be beaten to death with an axe or shot?
That depends on where on the body you are axed/shot. :P

How about you? What’s your fantasy?
Folks, you malignant, bald dweeb, nobody wants your “prayers” you hypocrite.
Are you going to threaten to track him down for expressing his opinions like Chief Cue Ball did? You dumbass!
Crickets in the media about the whole story. The “word” must have gone out that it was not to be covered.
T-Bone on ski’s, what’s a black man doing in Aspen, CO?
Dat’s whea de white womenz is at.
Did he take Chief Shorty with him?
Maybe Steve and his bro-in-law both had a substance abuse problem. It only hurts the families.

You forgot to mention the LexCo ring.
Probably a hit.
Anybody know about the arrest record for Donald E. Gist in Fulton County? 7/05/06.
And according to Rich. Cty. judicial, the 1998 case for violation for probation. Oh, and that open container arrest in 2004? Many more.
And that arrest for breach of trust with fraudulent intent.
I wonder if T-Bone’s wife let this thug out on parole like she did with one of Kelly Hunnewell’s murderers.
Oh what sweet justice if that were the case.
