The trial Texas-born Taymor McIntyre, pressionally known as Tay-K, was highly-publicized last year as it was revealed that the teenager would be in connection to his murder charges. Currently only nineteen-years-old, McIntyre has been the subject this case since he was fifteen. His defense has attempted to argue that, because his age, the rapper was not right mind as his decision-making was not quite up to par yet. His sister, who , is back spitting the same tune, making it clear that she believes her brother should not be behind bars right now, and certainly not for the next fifty-five years.
Kayla Renee, the sister Taymor McIntyre, posted a statement to her Facebook page, which was later shared to the rapper’s Instagram story. She suggested that, instead teaching young black men that they are “worthless” by locking them up, some sort rehabilitation should be fered. She then went on to reference her brother’s case directly, stating that she believes he is innocent.
“There’s no way my brother should have gotten 30+ years for a crime that was committed at the age 15years old, he did NOTHING violent. He harmed NOBODY. The outcome was not INTENTIONAL,” she says. “He did not walk into this situation believing someone’s life would be taken (rational or not, it’s scientifically proven our decision making is not nowhere near developed yet).”
Do you think Tay-K will serve out the entirety his sentence?
