http://www.bostonherald.com/news/local_coverage/herald_bulldog/2017/12/nathan_carman_denies_role_in_deaths_of_mom_grandfather

saw a documentary about him last week and his mom was the only human in the world that loved him. it makes no sense to kill her. the rest of his family always hated him for his disorder. And the people in his town all think he did it, just cause he's that weird kid. Duckbear accused him of murder days ago and the guy needs some support in his corner. If he gets charged, this will be the next Amanda Knox trial. And it will reveal bigotry against autistic people in the world.

I always believed she is innocent and she won her final trial. the supreme court of italy set her free. it was all circumstantial evidence and corrupt italian cops that wanted to nail an american. of course her dna was there, she lived there. there is zero proof she did it

we got more coverage where i was in Washington, because she is from seattle. the rest of the nation just glanced at it. Washington was obsessed with the story though

What exactly makes you so sure he is innocent? Because you feel bad for him?

This is like how you insisted chelle was real for the longest time because you had had conversations with her

I saw the documentary that told his side and interviewed him. and it showed how his entire family and the whole town has never liked him and hates him for his disorder. his family shunned him even before his mom died. and because again, it makes no sense for someone to murder the only person in the world that likes them. all witnesses, even those claiming he did it, admit he was very close to his mother.

Have you never heard of domestic violence?

People hurt and sometimes kill those closest to them every day. People who are kind and loving. This kid in the documentary is probably guilty as sin.

she won her trial. she was deemed innocent. there is no evidence she did it. get over it. not every american is a monster and you cant just throw tourists in prison

and the cops that initially arrested her were scummy as hell. they just wanted to punish an american.

People do illogical and self-harming things all the time. That it doesn't make sense that he would do it isn't a valid argument for his innocence.

their big "evidence" is that he didn't show enough emotion after the rescue. he was in shock, and he has autism. cut him some slack. explain why the aunts didn't go to the funeral? their own sister? they don't really care about their sister. they just are after money I think.

This actually does make sense. I remember hearing they didn't even go. I recently had a great-grandma who died. I barely had any money. And still found a way to make it to the funeral...

The fact that Amanda Knox went free doesn't mean you were right, any more than the fact that OJ went free means that he's innocent. Guilty people DO go free. They sometimes even confess to having done it after they're free.

http://www.nbcnews.com/id/43992199/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/t/suspect-confesses-murder-after-acquittal/

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/04/01/man-found-not-guilty-admits-killing/70800518/

While I can't say 100% that Amanda Knox or OJ was guilty, all signs point to yes.

That she was in on it. And, just like with the OJ case, it's been over a decade so the details are now hazy although, both now and at the time, people in this country cared more about her status as an American citizen than the half-baked, hole-ridden stories she told. The convicted murderer certainly implicated her.

There was never any credible evidence that Amanda Knox had anything to do with the murder. I'm not sure why they were so desperate to convict her and her boyfriend, especially when they actually did find the actual murderer, and they were still trying desperately to involve her and her boyfriend on that murder based on nothing.

As someone on the spectrum who feels guilty when killing a fly, I could not even imagine hurting my family whom I am incredibly close too. I can't speak for this guy, but if he's innocent, I hope the best for him. I do wonder why nobody liked him though. People generally like me as far as I know, so I wonder what he did to deserve being ostracized.

Hopefully situations like this don't lead to further stigmatization of people on the spectrum. Most of us are just normal people like everyone else, we just have some issues socializing with people.

it's that I honestly think he's innocent. that was my decision after I watched the show on him. there is no evidence he did it. it's just speculation. and people are pointing to his actions and weird behaviors but it's just autistic stuff he's doing.

I....am not sure if I remember this. what was the incident about before the cop touched him? did this happen at a school or something?

the one I remember was a man playing with a toy in the street (this was heavy autism) and cops ended up shooting his doctor who happened to be black. but that was more about the doctor than the autistic man.

oh ok. after a google search I think I remember now. the cops tackled a kid. he was walking down the street doing nothing and they hassled him. yea, I still stand by that. he was innocent too.

I'm not gonna say "ok this one was guilty maybe cause the last one was innocent. so by law of averages I bet this one did something". if I think they are innocent, I think they are innocent. and it's a fact that people often misunderstand autistic people.

Yes there is. The cop didn't do anything wrong. Neither did the autistic kid. But that's not the point here.

Do people often misunderstand murder? Because that seems like a pretty cut and dry deal.

murder doesn't just mean it was planned or in the heat of the moment...

and just because someone hasn't be charged doesn't mean they didn't do it. once they charge someone they have to have a preliminary hearing to see if/when a trial should take place. they might not have enough evidence for a trial yet.

He violently assaulted and detained a minor for no other reason that he thought the teen was acting strange and started to walk away from him. Even after he was told what was going on he kept holding the kid down to the ground while he cried for help.

There was no reason for him to be harassed to begin with. He was in his own neighborhood not harming anyone. Bad cop, no donut
