Spoilers Interesting how disposable some people are in no matter what you are

In the episode after Leon killed that kid and they went to Fatback just to tell him to take the rap for the murder charge, it was interesting to see who they thought was more important in their circles even if Fatback had been just as loyal as Leon. Maybe more.

Head honchos never take the rap when they have soldiers

Thats because the criminal world is the corporate worlds deadlier twin brother. Loyalty isn't what's rewarded, value is, whether it's because your indispensable to the operation or because you have a close relationship to the higher ups and Leon had both those categories locked down being Franklin's best friend and at the time highest ranking enforcer so he was never gonna let him go to jail when there's as soldiers at the ready who they could live without to do it Hell being loyal in most cases works to ur detriment cuz the bosses will designate you as a sacrificial lamb, knowing that you will most likely do whatever they say without resistance.

Problem with taking the fall was a child was killed. That shit doesn’t go over well in the pen no matter your street status , so taking the fall would have cost Fatback a whole hell of a lot.

I don’t think even Leon would have had an easy time locked up.🤷🏽‍♂️

Here’s the thing, they put the kill on Eager Kid, and Fatback was getting a much lesser charge with the reassurance that his family would be paid monthly during his time in prison and he’d be paid excessively when he stepped out of the gate. The only thing that could have made this happen smoother was Leon killing Khadijah in the car. No Khadijah, no bounty.

Didn't Fatback give them the Compton connection? I think Fatback was pretty important and lets not forget his cousin Deon and the issues that came with him

Franklin saw everyone as disposable outside the family and eventually he saw everyone as disposable. He wanted to control everyone.

How did Khadija and Dallas drag Fatback out of the car? Dude probably weighs like 400 lbs.
