Stupid ending
Q would be going to jail for life.
shareNawh he had Steel to back him up, plus everyone in that building was a witness to it being self defence.
shareExactly.

In order for his whole story to make sense they will have to confess to accessory to murder (killing the shop cashier) and armed robbery.
Meaning they will have to plead guilty on both counts unless they get the best lawyer ever (they won't) and their prosecutor has the IQ of a brick.
These offenses lead to many years in prison - maybe not life, but their lives are ruined and no one will want to hire them for anything once they are out of prison. Assuming they survive prison without joining a gang and bringing the recidivism rate up.
They can just say that they went to the bodega and that Bishop randomly took out his gun and shot the clerk. Such a story would hold weight considering Bishop shot four people killing three. Plus the fact that he recklessly shot his gun in a crowded elevator shows that he was capable of randomly shooting the clerk.
At that point their main concern would be to solve the mystery of multiple serial killings. There is no proof that the others had procession of the gun besides Bishop.
That would be plausible IF their stories are perfectly compatible (they won't be interrogated together) and the friend in the hospital was already spilling his guts. Not to mention, the clerk wasn't randomly shot - he was executed facing the wall, I believe. Plus the boys didn't go to the police to begin with and sorry to say, "I ain't no snitch" isn't a defense that holds up in court. Aiding and abedding, accessory, whatever. It's not good when it's connected to murder and robbery. The cops would know the money was taken.
A rookie detective would be able to identify the holes and contradictions in their story upon interrogation, leaving them with no credibility in taking the stand in court, meaning prison is all that lies in their futures.
Ya after watching the movie again it dawned on me how screwed Steel and Q are.
It wouldn't take long for them to be connected to the robbery from there they have at least one murder charge, but could also be charged in connection to Raheem. In most cases if a death occurs during a robbery then all responsible could be convicted of said death. So ya you won't be seeing Q or Steel for a LONG Time.
It's been 23 years, so Q and Steel are probably out by now.
shareMaybe. Unless they died in prison or joined a gang and are now right back in prison after selling some shyt.
shareThey both can say that Raheem and bishop both made them help out during the robbery.
Spoiler alert for them spoil sports out there! Y'all like spoiled milk, stop crying over it!
Too late, the one friend was spilling his guts at the hospital. Like I said before, it's highly doubtful they'd have the same story and they'd have no credibility afterwards trying to get their story straight.
