You always have really good insight and analysis. Thank you for sharing.

It's so annoying when people - even HUGE hockey fans - continual the narrative that (1) "he didn't mean to kill him" "he didn't intend to kill him" and (2) "he feels really bad right now".

Really?? Really???

Intent is a huge legal issue and argument. How do any of these Podcasters and commentators feel justified in stating his intentions at that time, alledging that they knew his mind, his mens rea.

And even worse, how can they presume to know his current feelings?!?! Has he made any statements? Polygraph tests? Made statements under oath? If anything, it would probably be closer to Aston Kutcher who panicked when he found his girlfriend dead and decided to cover up his association.

Petgrave, the black killer, may just be worried about any financial, legal or job implications for himself. Or he may be happy because he got away with it. His ego may be stroked that he can literally get away with murder and get a standing ovation. Check out The Boys/Homelander to show when he killed someone in a crowd and everyone cheered. He is a psychopath.

We can't know. I don't even know if the killer apologized as a normal Canadian would do. How would a normal person with emotions act? Would he set up a charity donations for the family? Has he decided to quite hockey for a time to get grief and ptsd help? Many players said they would quit if they hurt a player.

This guy, Tim Peel, some commentator, https://youtu.be/u9FPFWW2WK4 says Petgrave didn't intend to kill him. Then he continues, saying that Petgrave might have meant to hit the victim's head (a/n with a blade with extreme force) but he didn't intend to kill him..

What kind of cognitive dissonance allows all these hockey fans and normies to admit. Yeah, he deliberately kicked him in the head/neck (with extreme force with a deadly weapon) but he didn't mean to kill him.

That's like.... I can't even think of a Jesus or Aesop type of parable that everyone can understand, that is so outrageous. Help me out here??? You creative writers lurking here?

I would argue that since the footage shows that he intensively kicked him in the neck, any athlete or hood rat would know that a sharp blade to the neck or head could and did severe an artery and lead to death.

That is the logical train of thought based on the video footage of events.

3. The other extremely annoying statement I see a lot, mostly by people who think he deliberately kicked, is when they say "he didn't plan to kill him the day or week before"..... like... so what? Depending on which legal system and what he is charged with, it doesn't matter how long, as long as he INTENDED to preform an action that woukd led to death.

That's like a commentor saying:

people of the world! the killer had no intention to kill that black guy on the road. He just saw him and when his presence annoyed him, the killer decided to shoot him in the heart at a point blank range. But he had no intent the day/week before. And he didn't mean to kill him. The killer just meant to hit him with a bullet directly in the neck. Why yes, the killer has had many years of constantly training on how to operate a gun, and gun safety and is a professional athete with precise control of his body. And yes, he has done this sort of behavior before, but as far as we know, his previous attempts to hit people with bullets failed to permanently injure or kill.

Even this hormonal young girl was treated horrendously by the media and we can't really know her thoughts. She was definitely suicidal and mentally ill as she could not have expected to survive the crash. It was definitely a very emotional moment that led to her boyfriend's death.

Compare her media treatment and court sentencing to diversity hire Petgrave.

19-year-old Mackenzie Shirilla was called ‘hell on wheels’ - after she drove her car at 100mph into a brick wall.  Failing to brake, the crash killed her boyfriend Dominic Russo and his friend Davion Flanagan last year.  She denied purposefully killing both men – sobbing in court and said she didn’t remember the crash. The judge sentencted her on 12 charges including murder and felon-ious assault - she'll serve 15 years to life in prison.
