Riley Mullins (28) was jailed for allegedly robbing a woman, then adding her on Facebook - charges later dismissed

[Riley Mullins]

meh.

Well i guess everyone is quick to hand out judgement but not apologies

[Riley Mullins]

Ya you all judged me guilty to hang before you knew the truth like the fact the crime never even happened

What did happen? Give us the real story. Don't just tell us "we don't know."

what would i apologize for? i didn't say shit about your innocence or guilt.

[animosity]

i, for one, think it sucks that you were fingered for the crime and spent time in jail because you couldn't post bail. that shit sucks tons.

you probably shouldn't be creeping on teen-aged girls though. plus, your sister is still a racist.

[poppy213]

I don't believe that is the real Riley Mullins.

[Ron_NYC]

Well, don't we all have egg on our faces. Dudes innocent.

This is totally fucked up!

[Olivia]

I don't believe that is the real Riley Mullins.

Im pretty sure it is.

[puzzld]

Yeah. Stay away from the kids. You'll do better.

[poppy213]

Oops. At this point I just figured he was one big liar magnet whose name would bring out the trolls.

Glad to hear you are free Riley! And Welcome to MDS.

This is totally fucked up!

yeah, it is fucked up.


Should this story be taken down or title changed?

I'm sorry you got wrongfully accused. That blows.

But with all due respect, never once did the majority of us judge you as guilty. Most of us were just getting yucks from what was happening on your FB wall. So you're raging at the wrong people, dude. How about you rage at the chick that caused this whole fiasco. I have nothing to apologize for. She on the other hand......

[Boston Babe 73]

And shit! I didn't realize she was THAT young. Dude, what does a 28 year old have in common with a kid who's biggest concern is if they have a zit on school photo day? Yeah. You only have yourself to blame in this one. What she did was wrong. But it was also typical teenage drama. So if you don't want to get wrapped up in it, try picking up Women in places other than the high school parking lot.

So they dismissed the charges and let him go based on the fact that she had a history of lying, and that he friend requested her before the alleged robbery instead of after? I'm not saying I don't think she's lying, I'm just surprised that's all it took to drop the charges. Seems like there had to have been something else....

Enough for me. Just cause you say someone did something, doesn't mean they did it.

But I have a problem with the whole bail/bond system because if you're actually "innocent until proven guilty" then it's literally saying putting innocent people in lockup is fine.

[animosity]

i agree. it's awful that he spent, what? 2 months? in jail for something he didn't do because he is broke. that would be me.

[Boston Babe 73]

I agree that that part sucks. Him trolling Junior Proms for dates? Yeah. Loses some sympathy from me. But yeah. The bond deal needs to be changed if it's a questionable crime like this.

Can't help but think that it all could have been avoided if he had stuck to Women his age though. Then again I know 40 + year olds that act 12.

[animosity]

i agree with that too. you lose the right to be indignant that people aren't apologizing to you when the entire problem started because you were trying to get into some high schooler's pants.

[Nic B]

Just to be fair, did he know how old she was? He stated they met while waiting at a bus stop, I believe. Since she's known to lie, she may have told him she was older than she really was.

should ignorance be an excuse?

[Shins]

I wish Facebook would remove the privacy feature. If everyone can't comment, what's the point of social media?

Because then everyone would make fake accounts and get banned, like you did.

[Ron_NYC]

Exactly why it sucks. You get it.

[Seraphim]

That's always the excuse isn't it? She looked older. She SAID she was older. I coulda sworn she was older.

ETA: I ain't apologizing for shit. Simba and Nala are ADORABLE.

I wouldn't call it an excuse. More like a reason. It was a bus stop, not inside a high school.

[blighted star]

How the fuck did I miss this? This story completely sux now. I'm not sure we can use the age of the girl to excuse the shit we said at all. He only talked to her - & in a public place, I don't see how that's any kind of a problem & when you look at the attention-seeking shit this kid's been up to, maybe she approached him & he was just being polite. If he told her to fuck off from the outset & offended her, he might' ve been arrested a lot faster & on much worse charges.

I've got no problem apologising. I'm really sorry Riley. I feel like a fucking jerk.
