Talk:Rae Carruth

message: 64.8.190.51, a persistent vandal, has changed "eight months pregnant" to "seven months pregnant". I didn't know which is right so I didn't want to revert it.  Can anyone verify the real number? delldot | talk 19:16, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Why is it Alleged criminal history?  His criminal acts have been proven and he has been convicted!
It should read criminal history or at least the proven aspects of the crime should be separated.

message: I do understand that the murder is the only thing that makes her important to the mainstream, but it seems to me like there is enough information about her to warrant a separate page and that it does her a great disservice to have her name redirect to the page of her murderor---and that is what most of this page is about as well.  I think she deserves her own page, and would be much more respectful. BMSprint (talk) 02:55, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I know this is probably just an erroneous charge added on by the cops, but how did he get charged with this(destroying an unborn child) when the baby was successfully delivered? The mother died a month later, more than enough time for the doctors to have saved her life. Did Rae Carruth actually fire the shots? If not, I don't see how he can be charged with 1st degree. If anything, he was merely an accomplice, maybe manslaughter at the worst.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfy9005 (talk • contribs) 10:46, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Spend less time on Wikipedia and more time obtaining an actual education.  Carruth solicited the murder of his girlfriend and his child, paying Watkins and Kennedy to perform the actual killing.  That's not manslaughter, that is a dictionary-ready example of premeditated first degree murder.  That Carruth was able to slither out of taking full responsibility for his crimes is a result of the legal skills that an NFL player can afford to hire, and had nothing to do with justice.
He was charged with using a weapon to destroy an unborn child, which is what happened. The fact that the child survived doesn't negate the fact that a weapon was used in an attempt to kill him. The whole reason this hit was contracted was to kill the child and the mother after all. As for the first degree charge, he contracted someone to kill Cherica and the child. That indicates more planning and intent than a manslaughter charge is meant to cover. Just because he didn't fire the shots doesn't mean all that much. After all, those shots would not have been fired if he did not contract someone to fire them. He essentially used those other people as a weapon.108.213.241.108 (talk) 17:21, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
