I'm not trying to be insensitive, but I don't think it matters now. Our interest in Valero is down to the fact that he is/was a top class boxer. His career is now over, and this case will become just another statistic.

Another Ike Ibeabuchi. Like you say, Valero has gone from boxer to prisoner, so once this story dwindles in popularity, it's goodbye.

Big deal. Someone's life has been taken. I think a bit of perspective is needed.
Exactly. I'm not even willing to think "what might have been" with regards to his boxing career. We don't need fighters bringing down the sport.
