Most people are admitting both of them are acting like **** in all of this


Why the **** would you admit anything about the woman when you have no proff she's done anything wrong?

There's only one person whose clearly in the wrong


Not allowing a man to have his child at one of the biggest moments in his life makes you a ****. People can project Cousins to be a serial killer all they want but should be some level of courtesy here. Even if the wedding visit was accompanied with a relative or whatever supervision to deny him the request for this is shady

unless she can prove to the court that cousins is a bad father, then she should suffer some sort of consequences.

family law aside, the threat needs to be investigated properly by the police to determine if there's an actual threat and lay the appropriate charges if the victim chooses to do so.

odd that she released the tape a few days after the wedding (which will come up in the investigation). she's clearly mad she won't be riding his dick anymore. bitter ass woman be happy with your child support and be civil with your ex. the child suffers most at the end of the day.

don't quote me if you're a female or a beta male.


oops, i quoted you. what are you gonna do about it alpha dog :lol:

People like you are the reason disgusting men get away with abuse and rape in this god forsaken culture. I hope one day you manage to look inward the the insecurities you're desperately trying to ask behind your very strong alpha misogynist persona

Just flag and ignore. He aint' worth the trouble.


You're right and you're wrong. Because that type of person is the type of person committing these types of crimes as well as these incel type dudes who are angry at women and the feminist movement for trying to get rights and are lashing out.

This is the type of person who is worth not only my time, but more effectively, the time of a seasoned therapist.

People threaten people with physical harm everyday. There's a reason the courts arent filled up with this


Holy crap. Spent about .003 seconds googling and using my head. Turns out uttering death threats is a crime.

Also Matlock, they have charges against him. So that means it is a crime. She is required to sign a warrant for them to pursue them.

Matlock? lol

Investigating. No charges will be brought unless he has a gun, or has went through any steps to procure one. You are absolutely not right here. Uttering death threats is not a crime unless there was any kind of serious intent behind it.

Seriously dude, do you not realize the amount of times in any given day people threaten each other with death, violence...etc?


If you really believe that threats aren't classified as assault then honestly don't know what to you tell you.

He could defend with lack of intent but it is 100 percent a crime that can be brought to court. And I don't care about how many people threaten to kill each other every day. It's immaterial to the law.

What the actual ****? I don't think I've ever been threatened with death, or even really violence outside of the **** we'd say to each other as kids on the playground (eg I'm going to kick your ass etc). In what horror show do you live?


Yeah, this is exactly what this guy doesn't realize he's doing. He saying this 30 year old man shouldn't be expected to react much better than the way a 12 year old would. Not realizing that lowering the bar for a grown man to such a low low height is what empowers men to abuse women.

That’s putting on a insane cap on emotional feelings in a tense situation. Cousins is wrong for saying it but threatening violence is not unheard of when in a emotional situation. Even the video starts with him calmly asking her twice can he please have his son at his wedding and she disregarded it with a simple no and he snapped. That’s why he’s wrong no matter what but I would like to know the full context of the discussion leading to this point.


Like I said: he threatened to murder her (directly or by contract killing). If he called her a **** it wouldn't be in the hands of the police. That's about as serious a thing as you can say with words.



Okay where is the contracted killing stuff audio because without proof I’m not going to pay it much mind. Her death in any way would make Cousins a suspect even without the audio. It’s very serious in words I’m just not willing to act like it’s not common in a heated situation

Maybe. I get it from Cousins' POV. But we don't know what the kind wanted or how he feels about his dad getting remarried or his stepmother. My GF is not close with her dad anymore because of her poor relationship with her stepmom and for a long time going to her dad's family stuff was hell on her. She wanted her mom to step in but she didn't. We just don't have all the facts.

Like I said: I'm not passing judgment and we don't have any facts here but there is a charitable reason why the Mom might refuse that's not petty spite.

I'll spell it for ya since you seemingly dont know how to goggle. Intent is the entire case. For it to be a crime, they'd have to prove that Cousins has real intent to kill her. A 5 second outburst in a heated moment does not intent make.

Forget it though, this threads been derailed about it not being a crime enough.

No. I’ve made it clear in every post that is was a severe emotional outburst on a sensitive topic. Do you believe Cousins would actually shoot her in the head?

But this is on DMC. Those saying this is her fault are just advocates of victim mentality aka everything is and always was out of DMCs control.

Use a condom, dude! Stop fapping...forever...then condoms will feel fine. But don't go raw on a random chick.

"Gold diggers are using star athletes for cash" no they're not. They are just taking advantage of guys who don't know what condoms are or refuse to use them.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

I don't feel comfortable saying he could or couldn't or wouldn't or hasn't physically abused her. Not like we haven't seen many cases of it in history. Men abusing women is unfortunately part of the male culture so I'm definitely not giving any benefit of the doubt until it stops.

You're right that the audio doesn't include that part and it is only her uncorroborated allegation. It's a fair point that I shouldn't be lumping the two together.

You go ahead and pretend it isn't common in a heated situation. The law will continue to consider it a crime.

You may be right that this is not a crime in Alabama but I would ask if you have it for the reference in their criminal code. In Canada as I understand it the essence of the blameworthy conduct is not the intent to kill but rather the fear and terror caused by the threat. That is the root of the punishment even if you don't ever intend to go through with it. It only matters that you said it.

I would like more context into the reasoning for not allowing the child to go and only thing I would really accept is if the child himself was uncomfortable going. We do need more to this story because I don’t personally believe Cousins would of repeatedly (from the audio) been pushing for the child to be there is the kid made it clear he didn’t want to be there


We will have to wait and see but these situations do tend to make both sides spiteful

I’m not disputing that it’s not possible but I will argue not every threat is 100% valid
