: Here is what Marlo sent s:

I am shocked and saddened to hear of the recent distortions of events and false accusations disseminated over an altercation I was involved in over a dozen years ago. It had been my preference, out of respect for the person involved, as well as her family, to not speak about this incident publicly, but the recklessness with which the story is being manipulated has forced me to come forward.

I was in my early twenties, and what took place started out as an argument with someone who was once my friend, over the phone. In the first incident, I was ambushed at my house and badly beaten. Though charges were initially filed, those charges were later dropped and I filed a restraining order. As disturbing as the carrying of a weapon may seem, it was quite common in the environment in which I was raised, and not only I, but also the person involved in the altercation, had each brought weapons to protect ourselves. There was a confrontation, her knife dropped, mine did not.

I was arrested and convicted of aggravated battery for which I served 6 months in jail. What is so disturbing about the false reports now circulating is that it was she, my friend, who appeared in court on my behalf and fought to reduce my sentence.

Like many people, I was deeply saddened by her untimely death - 6 years later - and shocked at the recent attempts to connect me to it. Ultimately, it does a disservice to her and her family, to guess and draw conclusions as to her state of mind when she committed suicide. Those reasons are obviously personal and painful and do not deserve to be speculated on for the purposes of entertainment or drawing readers to your site. She and her family remain in my prayers.

I DEFINITELY wouldn't want HER praying for me if I were this woman's family. She can chalk it up to her environment blah blah blah but at 20 SOMETHING I wasn't arguing with chicks over the phone and we *** sure weren't knife fighting. Waaayyyy too bougie for that ghetto behavior.


NaeeJaNaee

Leave Her Alone. She. Did Her Time. R.I.P.

I like Marlo, but she needs to drop that black *** Charles. I mean ewww can she even seen him at ***?? She needs to find her a nice white man that can treat her to the new life she deserves. Plus Charles lives in *** with all the other *** downlow black bums so get rid of him girl!

Although I do believe in 2nd chances I don't think marlo will be able live this down whether her actions contributed to this lady untimely death or not unfortunately that's the type of society we now live in......very judgemental....I think maybe instead of trying to justify yourself publicly on tv I think maybe in a more private setting such counseling troubled teens, or scared straight....we all have a past.


LuxuryTax

I'm especially sensitive to this topic bcuz I had a cousin that was killed in high school by another student when the change of class bell rang (she didnt see it coming)we were younger & later to find out she was pregnant. So females that are violently willing to fight using weapons need to be ready to except consequences that come alone with it. However if Marlo didn't actually contribute to this lady death she *** be blamed for the outcome but should be blamed for her cowardly ways do defending herself!


Greg4422

Well that settles it for me, it was self defense, enough said.


itzjusme

@BlaminicanBombshell, she getting a man that she can get cuz she is not pretty, sound like a quarterback and look like a running back. So, her man is used to that.


bluechip244

Whatever! Only a skanky ghetto *** will cut another woman in the face.


liljoy

The lady that died is not here to defend herself and only she and Marlo know what REALLY happend. I sure as hell don't believe Marlo... she seems like she is a drama queen with multiple personalities. If she joins the cast...the show will go up in flames!


GORGEOUSnINK

LIGHT CREOLE NEEDS TO *** THE *** UP WITH THESE RACISTS *** COMMENTS IM SICK OF DIS DARKSKINNED/LIGHTSKINNED COMPARISONS SO WHAT LIGHTSKINNED MIXED OR EVEN WHITE PEOPLE DO NOT GET IN ALTERCATIONS WORSE THAN DAT *** OUTTA HERE #IGNORANT


blackfox1

If marlo joins the show I will not watch it don't think she is sorry for what she did when she told nene about it she didn't seem to sad about it she is trash period I think she is full of *** if wendy ain't show them mugshots she would have neva fessed up to it gutter trash dipped in gold don't make it gold



onlyloveblackppl

you weren't there so U don't know what kind of women this girl was, Marlo might have been just defending herself, If it's your time to check out then her death was already plan this way before she came to this earth, it was God who took the hedge of protection off her head, so he has the last say so about her leaving.


MzzVal

lolol was she addressing my comment?

Tweet-tweetz @MzValerie_


cocoNdallas

I wasn't there so I cant judge her. You cant judge someone until you walk in their shoes so until then STFU. She said the girl spoke up for her in court to reduce her sentence so that says alot about how close they were. That's between Marlo and God.

I follow back...cocoNdallas


SexiModelChick

If Marlo knew it was going to be a fight then why go to the club? Seem to me that Marlo knew it was going to be a fight bc she got jumped already. Both girls came ready for war. How sad! Stop the violence and walk away. It should never get this far.


luvmyselftodeath

Gotta respect honesty is all I can say...


Tressia

That's Marla's pass and nobody else's business to judge!
