Tay-K Believes His Murder Sentence Is Unfair: ‘If I Was A Lil White Kid They Wouldn’t Have Gave Me 55 Years’
On his 21st birthday in June 2021, Tay-K gave an update from prison, expressing optimism about his appeal. The Tarrant County jury found the 19-year-old Texas artist guilty of first-degree murder in Walker’s home invasion shooting death; the convicted shooter in the case was already serving a life sentence.
On Thursday, Tay-K made a sweeping generalization about his case, implying that he wouldn’t be in this predicament if he were “a lil white kid” and thus given a second chance at adulthood.
