I think if your statement said "additionally", "still" or "also" instead of "just", it would be defendable.

I won't message people that I know are driving for this reason. Probably unrelated to the death, but hopefully they can know the exact time frame due to the phones gps.

Well I am from the midwest. When I was 23, I had a buddy who had never left the state border. We went to a different city on a road trip with our friends band. He was stoked. It was on our side of the city though. We offered to drive an extra 20 minutes but that wouldn't have counted so we didn't.

it is uncommon in the US.

Well, you tell your backer that you got jumped by those kids. If this is gang shit, they can't have their people getting jumped. So you tell those people what happened and will still probably have to work off the debt. You can't go unprotected. You'll have to keep cash stashed securely close to your body. Keep some petty cash in your wallet for the stick up man to think he's got your stash. Once you have the cash, you're going to need a pistol. These kids got cash off you once, they'll be back if your backers don't take care of it. Or, you know, stop selling drugs and whatnot.

Well I only read the TLDR.

You have never been to a trailer park.
