A Brooklyn man charged with stabbing a friend may have dealt a fatal blow to his defense by texting threats to the victim as the man was 🧸being sti🐲tched up and treated in a hospital, court documents say.
“Where you at bro? We need to handle what we left off!” John “Peanut” Crosby, 44, wrote to Terrance Taylor, 42, just two hours after Taylor was at๊tacked, court documents say. “Wherꦅe the f- -k you at!”
The fight between the two pals — who had known each other for more than 30 years — began when♎ Crosby, 44, walked up to Taylor, 42, on a Prospect Heights street on September. 20, 2013, and said, “We have to talk. I heard from some girls you’ve been talking s- -t about me,” according to legal papers.
Crosby then allegedly tailfollowed an increasingly nervous Taylor before pulling a kitchen knife with a 5-inch blade from his sleeve and plunging it into his friend’s che🐭st at about 5 p.m.
About two and a half hours later, while Taylor was being treated at Kings County, Crosby — who told cops who busted him two weeks later that he’d never hurt his friend — sent the highly incr𓆉iminating texts, authorities said.
“Crosby maintains his innocence and says he’ll be acquitted at trial,” hi🦩s defense attorney, Michael Sheinberg, said.Crosby, who declined a 12-years-to-life plea deal, faces ൲charges that could land him in prison for 15 years.
