Police say they were called to a Hempstead home Friday evening. According to authorities, the two got into a heated argument, and then Sadler sliced the victim in the neck with a machete.
"He won't jump anyone else again, let's put it that way," said Sadler, "everyone saw it. They know what happened, they didn't do anything about it"
A witness says Sadler allegedly waited for the teenager to walk pass Sadler's home, and then confronted him.
Police didn't did not release any information on whether Grier ever robbed Sadler.

Is there something in the water that we are drinking causing the desire to kill for a certain few? It does not matter what Grier did; chopping and killing him with a machete was way out of line. Sadler bought the machete on craigslist in preparation to kill this teen. Thankfully he is in the hands of the police.
