    You should read up on what happened. Your stance now is that she had to resist enough to get beaten to a pulp (or maybe to death) to be charged — tell me how much you’d resist if a man able to kill you with his bare hands who outweighed you by more than 100 pounds of muscle assaulted you.

    https://lasvegassun.com/news/1999/aug/26/ibeabuchi-ordered-to-stand-trial-on-sex-charges/

    This is a man who bit two jail guards and attacked another while in custody.

    And you can believe whatever you want to believe, but he took a plea that he knew would put him behind bars rather than go to trial. That is undisputed FACT. He chose that. He went into a courtroom and admitted that if it went to trial he would be convicted. That’s enough for me.

    Now are you going to continue to ignore his actions that crippled a child forever?

    Why don’t you share the things you witnessed that make you think he needed mental health intervention. On one hand you say all this stuff is overblown but you repeatedly ignore the incident where he could have killed an innocent child (and did inflict lifelong injury on him). And you yourself slipped that he did need mental health intervention ... why did this guy you want to paint as a benevolent Santa Claus need this help?

    WHAT DID YOU SEE? Tell us please.

    That BS report only shows one thing. That woman judge had him guilty & convicted BEFORE the trial started. Do you REALLY believe that woman only came to his room to do an erotic dance for him?? C'mon man get serious. You thing anyone would pay a hooker $150 to dance for him in the early hours of the morning. Have you seen her pic ?????

    Keep telling us more about yourself.

    What does what she look like have to do with it? You’re saying a woman’s looks has something to do with whether or not she could or should be raped? That’s Ike’s line of thinking as outlined in his own words, that he has the right to take any woman because they should all fall at his feet and beg for it. Which explains his actions.

    What does the sex of the judge have to do with it? Because she raised the amount of his bail based on him assaulting guards, other accusations of him sexually assaulting women and his own history? (Kind of funny that she mentioned the question that he would show up in court to face charges; she must have had a Magic 8-Ball, because that’s EXACTLY what happened when he did finally finish his sentence in Nevada ... he skipped out on a warrant and didn’t show up in court and that’s what put him BACK behind bars.)

    It doesn’t matter what she came there for. It matters whether she was assaulted.

    Ike agreed in court that they had enough evidence to convict him. That’s FACT.

    NOW for the fourth or fifth time: what do you have to say about him bringing a child along in a car with him when he rammed into a retaining wall at 65 mph trying to kill himself with zero regard for the child’s life? What do you say about him crippling an innocent kid?

    What did you see that made you think he needed a mental health intervention? What did you see that made you realize he was unstable? Why didn’t you get him help?

    If & I repeat IF Ike deliberately drove into a brick wall in a suicide attempt wouldnt you agree that he must have been unstable to even think of ever doing that ??? Was he ever charged with deliberately trying to injure the boy while attempting suicide ??? NO he wasnt the finding was it was a road accident.
    You can keep prattling on about something you know nothing about only what the media say all you want. If that documentary & book of his life story comes out in the future just make sure you read it & watch it then come back & discuss it again. Till then let it rest

    The court ruled it a suicide attempt. He spent time in jail for false imprisonment for taking the poor child and crippling him. He also paid (through his benefactors) half a million dollars in a civil settlement to make it go away.

    So yes he was charged and spent jail time over it.

    What did you see that made you think he was unstable? What do YOU think about him taking an innocent child and risking that kid’s life?

    I’m going to keep asking. Why didn’t YOU try to get him help? Why didn’t you say to Curtis Cokes, “This man is insane. He will listen to you. Forget about the money he might make you in the ring and use your ability to persuade him to get him help.” Why didn’t you do that?

    On the one hand you act like he was a cool guy and all the stories are overblown, he never harmed a fly. On the other you say he needed a mental health intervention. Which is it?

    I don’t care if someone says they’re doing a documentary or writing a book. If either sees the light of day, you’ll simply overlook the points that make him look bad.

    So why won’t you answer the questions: What did you see that made you think he was unstable? What do YOU think about him taking an innocent child and risking that kid’s life?

    I’m sorry you chose to idolize a mentally ill man who was a danger to himself and others. I hope you’ll come around to see that just because you know someone it doesn’t mean they aren’t capable of violent crime, which Ike obviously was.

    Be happy he got put behind bars for his own safety and the safety of others. There are people alive and well today who probably would not be if not for his incarceration.

    Someone who asked very simple and direct questions that you refused to answer because you didn't want to admit Ike was dangerous and unstable.

    No.

    The press would have built Ike up into a head to head monster, while his fragile psyche subtly unraveled, and then Lewis would have destroyed him.

    After that, Ike goes to prison for something else anyway, and Lewis is seen as the head to head GOAT!

    Ike is free in Nigeria at the moment. As far as we know... though he looks to have fallen off the face of the earth

    The earth is a safer place if he’s fallen off it.
