I agree with Eagle King’s and BobWickersham’s posts above regarding how well Emoni conducted himself in this arrest- gives you more respect for Emoni the young man. And agree with Nickle’s post with how frail Emoni was during the arrest- it humanizes him and makes him more relatable.

Emoni gets a lot of unfair criticism in the public arena from the press to all the all the social media know-nothings. This case was unfortunate and I am sure is embarrassing to the poor kid to have those videos plastered permanently all over the internet (not necessarily embarrassing for the mistakes he made, but rather because nobody ever wants to be seen crying). I am so glad my own “youthful indiscretions” remain silent as they are of no interest to anybody. Emoni is not afforded this, and I sympathize with him. But in the end, this unfortunate affair is going to be something Emoni can grow and learn from. And I think it is going to help with his public image (not that that should matter).
