75. thank you for adding crucial details, sandnsea. another very
important detail is the man who said he witnessed it, that one person (NOT one of the Jena 6) hit barker, and it wasn't mychal bell, or a group.
that witness was not allowed to testify.

This makes it worse

The witness no one called:

Coach Benjy Lewis gave two statements immediately after the school incident in which he clearly states that Justin Barker was facing him when Malcolm Shaw (not Mychal Bell) struck Barker from behind. “I saw Malcolm Shaw hit Justin Barker with his right fist to the right side of Justin’s head, right around the temple,” Lewis wrote. “Justin went down face first, knocked out . . .” Most witnesses agree that a single punch knocked Barker out cold. The only adult who witnessed the punch says Mychal Bell didn’t throw it.

In a signed statement given immediately after the altercation at the school, student Jesse Beard stated that moments after the assault Coach Manning asked him where Malcolm Shaw was.

Do you get it? Mychal Bell didn't hit / beat Justin Barker!
