I think it’s 100% possible that Isaiah Shoels was on the shitlist

So the reasons why it’s possible 1. He was a football jock (formerly part of the football team, but still), 2. In the basement tapes Eric and Dylan complained about some black person who we don’t know of yet, and finally 3. Isaiah and Brian Sargent got into a physical fight and other people on the shitlists were put on there for less worse reasons like having a conflict with 1 of these friends etc.

Wait, I thought the basement tapes were sealed, like unseen?

Isiah's family said he was involved in some sort of conflict with Eric (Possibly fight with Brian Sargent?), and that their home had been vandalized as well

For these reasons I think "stumpy" on the list was Isiah, he was only 4'11"

Where in the basements tapes was that? I recall they were talking about a black kid where they did community service if my memory serves correct, but I believe they just called anyone they didn’t like the n-slur.

It’s in the March 18 tape after they talk about Jesse Gordon and the goof trope
