He was cut during the audition phase and did not make it to the Hollywood-week competition. He also previously auditioned for Season 9 in Atlanta, where he made it through a couple of early rounds

So basically "Man kills wife". The fact that he was on early stages of American Idol means nothing. Loads of people made it to the same point.

Yeah this is like if William Hung was caught for genocide. You know they'd lead off the story with "Ex-American Idol contestant".

[u/ColdThief → u/MelonElbows]

You mean the star of "Hung Jury" William Hung? That William Hung?

[u/_mbals → u/ColdThief]

That very one. The star of Mock Trial with J. Reinhold

[u/ColdThief → u/_mbals]

Yeah, I realized after that he was the band for Mock Trial.

[u/Darkon-Kriv → u/Mirewen15]

It is slightly relevant to the case as i think some of the evidence was like songs he made for the women he was having an affair with. So its more like. "Bad singer incriminate himself and killed wife"

That guy is 40? Jesus. He looks mid-fifties.

[u/Mr_IT → u/fatwoul]

slowly leans over to look at my 54 year old self in the mirror 😢

[u/tripping_on_phonics → u/Mr_IT]

54 is the new 28

[u/lord_mcdonalds → u/Mr_IT]

Flip it on its head, you look like someone who’s 40.

[u/fatwoul → u/Mr_IT]

I’m sure you’re beautiful.

[u/SnooCauliflowers9874 → u/fatwoul]

He doesn’t look healthy and his thinness ages him even more.

[u/WorthConversation451]

Oh no… anyways, I’m having chicken for lunch…

[u/exitjames]

Its life without parole for me, dog.

[u/Sanctus_Formido → u/exitjames]

Sitting in my office reading this and it made me laugh out loud. Thank you.

[u/exitjames → u/Sanctus_Formido]

Happy to be of service 🫡

Now for the co conspirator mistress.

[u/be1izabeth0908 → u/msmojo]

They won’t go for her.

[u/msmojo → u/be1izabeth0908]

I wish they would though.
