All you have is lies and meds.
An innocent young woman and her caring step father (not criminals, no warrants out for them, not attacking or resisting police) were gunned down by a soulless Biden voter and you decide it's time to lie about a Burger King myth from over 5 years ago. It's sad, you're sad.

Regardless of all the straightforward reasons why police would provide food to a suspect in their custody, the plain explanation is that Roof hadn’t eaten in days, and the Shelby PD didn’t have the facilities to house him and provide him with meals while waiting for federal and Charleston authorities to arrive, so they had to dispatch someone to a nearby business to pick up some food for him:With the department’s phone ringing nonstop in the background, the young suspect with the bowl-cut hair was locked away in a second-floor conference room with an officer watching over him.
“Organized chaos,” Ledford later called it. “Because there were so many moving parts.”
Including feeding the unexpected arrestee.
“He hadn’t eaten, they said, in a couple of days,” [Pastor Strickland] Maddox said. “They bought him a hamburger. They just sent out for it. I guess one of the police officers went and picked it up.”
Ledford confirmed that this purchase was made.
“He did have something to eat while he was there, and he was secured in cuffs the entire time,” the chief said.
No reasonable reading of Shelby Police Chief Jeff Ledford’s accounts would suggest that Roof had actually been “taken to Burger King” after he was apprehended.
