At that time, Larry Miller was a member of the Cedar Avenue gang, which he joined at the age of 13.
Nike Jordan USA director Larry Miller admitted in an interview with Sports Illustrated that he killed a teenager 56 years ago.
Miller said that in 1965, on the streets of West Philadelphia, when he was 16 years old, he fired a .38 caliber pistol in the chest of an 18-year-old who eventually died on the spot.
Nike director Jordan calls the killing “an act of retaliation” because a friend of his was killed in a clash with another gang before. Miller and his friends went to look for someone connected to a rival gang.
He shot the first person he met. According to Miller, “it ate from the inside.”
At the time, Nike director Jordan was a member of the Cedar Avenue gang, which he joined at age 13. He served in prison for this murder, but hid it in secret from everyone for over 50 years.
Over the past few months, he has been gradually talking about this to people in his inner circle, including one of the founders of Nike, Phil Knight: “I was shocked at how positive the response was.”
The confession took place before the release of his memoirs, which is scheduled for next year. Miller hopes his example can give hope to people whose lives have taken a dark turn.
Earlier it was reported that in the United States at a party shot an american football star… Aaron Lowe was a sophomore at the University of Utah for which he played.
